Wiscour (Bob) from,The Lake of T he Ozarks,Missouri.Date: 7/06/2003 9:14:17 AM Pacific Standard Time From: rwiscour@usmo.com He llo Again JayHope you are enjoying the fourth of July weekend. I have a lot of Wiscour 's in my files, some are still in Luxembourg,Belgium,France and one fami ly in Germany that I have been unable to contact.Then there is my family h ere in the USA, descendants of Antonie Wiscour, who emigrated to the USA a bout 1882. I have just recently received a news article that had to be tra nslated into English, concerning the origination of the name Disewiscour t/ Des Viscour/Diseviscour/Disewiscour/Wiscour.The article pretty much con firmed that the names listed originated in The Village of Sevicourt, locat ed on the road from Libramont to Bastogne. I have attached a chart that sh ows the population, by the variations of names in Luxembourg,1880,1930 a nd 1980.The chart is in the lower right hand corner.If you have trouble op ening it please let me know. This brings me to, Jean Baptiste Wiscour, Franz Wiscour and Eve Wiscou r. I have no information on them other than what you have in your file s. I assume that what you have in your files is all the information you ha ve?? I am going to add them to my files, under Wiscour's but as yet unrela ted. If you would I would appreciate you possibly sending me, in GED fo rm the information on Jean Baptiste Wiscour and his descendants. I current ly have a files for, The French Wiscour's, The Luxembourg Wiscour's a nd my Wiscour/Klement File. I have a family web site, at MyFamily.com th at I share with authorized family members. I would like to add the Jean Ba ptiste Wiscour file there also. I also share this information online at An cestry World Tree. If you would be kind enough to send the file to me a nd do not want me to publish it online I would keep it only in my compute rs file. Whatever you decide I will respect and appreciate. I am goi ng to continue my research into the Wiscour Family and Family nam e, so if there is any information that I uncover in the future I wou ld be glad to share. If there are any of Jean Baptiste's Descendants th at would be interested in visiting the sight please have them contact me a nd I'll get them on the list to be able to visit the site. I am current ly in contact with several sources in Luxembourg and France, one of whi ch is a Wiscour Descendant and has been very helpful in my research. We a re attempting to find the link between the families. If there is any infor mation that I can provide please let me know. I look forward to hearing fr om you. If there is any way that I can be of help please, let me know. I w ill appreciate any help or information that you can provide in my resear ch of the Wiscour Family Name.My regards again to you and your family.
