Attention Sleuths!

Episode 1: What? There is more than one Emma Lutz?

We are currently tracking the connection that William F. Lutz & Emma L. Lutz has to our Lutz family.  Interesting facts: William Fredrick Lutz was born in Wurttemburg Germany, moved to Chicago, Illinois and then moved to Santa Ana, California.. Does that immigration pattern seem familiar?  My grandmother Helen Smiley (Lutz) was 2 years of age living in Santa Ana. Guess who was her next door neighbors?
William and Emma Lutz of course!
