Our Scharf Line to Nina (Lumbard) Sulouff

Chart from the files of Howard Scharf
I know the scan is not good - It is large. I'm working on having it scanned properly so it's easier to share.  This is research from the cannons of Switzerland, sent to Howard here in America from a relative in Switzerland.

================================================
I recently had the pleasure of spending an entire day with Howard Scharf.
He has comprehensive files on the Scharf line, and allowed me to copy and make notes. I'm in the process of uploading everything I accumulated that day.  If you have inquiries, or additions, not only would I love to hear from you ( htruck@gmail.com ) but I know Howard would love to hear from you as well.  He is not online, but you can reach him by snail mail.
