    I was searching the Wintjen family and ran accross the Niffens; found a tree online by Lynda Niffen (my 4th cousin) but the email address was old and didn't work. The Peter Wintjen mentioned above was born in 1833 and is my g-g-grandfather. If you are related please email me at "SeeversS@comcast.net".
    Thanks, Steve
