With extreme sorrow and a heavy heart, I want to inform you that my son, firefighter/Paramedic Eric Michael
Dopp, died March 24, 2006 one day before his 27th birthday. Eric suffered severe injuries in a motorcycle accident March
4th, 2006. He died at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas.
Eric was a firefighter/Paramedic employee of the Leon Valley, Texas fire department. He was also a Lieutenant/Paramedic
for nine years with the Windcrest, Texas Volunteer Fire Department.
To see the large memorial banner, click Eric's picture. For more information, click the Memorial Page link below.
The site includes Eric's obituary and my daily journal updates during this trying, and tragic, time in our lives.

Welcome to our family history tree! The picture to the left is not, to my knowledge, a Dopp family. It does
make a statement about genealogy! Take a few minutes to read the guestbook. It's interesting! I
hope you enjoy your visit to the Dopp Family Genealogy as I know it.
As always, please help the project by contributing corrections or missing information. If you would like to contribute
research materials, please contact me via e-mail or at my snail mail address.
I posted a new update to the database on Rootsweb. Click on the "Pedigree Charts" to go to the page.
This site is a compilation of the work of many, many people. Wherever possible, I document the contributors
and sources. When I first started this project some fifteen years ago, I often did not write down the sources.
If you find information without a source and you ARE the source or know what the source is, please let me know so I can
update the data base.
I try very hard not to make mistakes, if you find any, please let me know. If you have documented
evidence that any information is wrong, let me know and I will make the appropriate changes.
This site is an entirely free genealogy resource. (Some links here may take you to sites that require
payment for information.) You should find NO banner ads and popups. If you see any on my site, let me
know right away.
I sincerely hope this site is a good place to start documenting your own family heritage.
Several people have asked about a source I list as "Dopp Family Newsletter." This was a quarterly
newsletter started in October 1982 (Issue #1) by Marie Forehan and Margaret Schliepp. It appeared quarterly until September
1994 (Issue #42.) I took on the editor's job thereafter, (Issue #43 in March 1995 through Issue #51 in March
1997) until the burdens of work and family and newsletter overwhelmed me. I was unable to find anyone willing to take
on the job of editor or co-editor, so the newsletter folded. Each issue was seven pages of research, information and
stories. Marie still offers complete sets of the Newsletter (spiral bound book) for $40. Please contact her at
leonamf@wpa.net if you would like a complete set of back issues. Her snail mail address is:
Marie Forehan
503 Welty Street
Greensburg, PA 15601

Some families know a great deal about their roots; others know very little. In these modern times, families tend to be scattered
all over the country, if not the world. One of the goals of this web site is to keep the family history alive.
Click on the "Pedigree Charts" tab to see the pedigree charts of more than 5,300 names.
Please use the guestbook to let me know of any corrections to the information on this site. (You
may also e-mail me.)
Click on "View My guestbook" to see what others are saying. If you prefer, send me an e-mail.
I always enjoy hearing from cousins!
