Welcome !!

You have arrived at my version of  the Gerwing family tree. The information here relates mostly to Gerwings' in Canada, Germany, USA and Australia. The earliest generations listed lived in the Alstaette area of Germany. Early variations of the name include Gerwinck,  Gerwerdinck, Gerwertinck, Gerwer, etc.
............I do not profess to be an expert on our family tree. Rather, my purpose in posting this on "the net" is to gather additional information about Gerwings around the world so that future generations may better understand their roots. 
............So far the content of this website is the result of work by Rita Tagseth (Gerwing), Sharon Rolfes (Wisser), Constance Gerwing, Bernadine Morris (Gerwing), Lois Boser, Catherine Rubin, Alphonse Gerwing, Karl Schulte, Joylaura Fleischer, Rita Gockener, many other relatives and the Lake Lenore History Book. If you can contribute additions or corrections, please contact me through the email link below.

This is the tiny log house at Lake Lenore, Sask. Canada that was inhabited by 13 Gerwings in the winter of 1903-04. The house has been preserved by the local community as a tribute to Canadian Pioneers. ... more
