This started as hey very small list in the old Kaiserzeit magazine. It has grown tremendously spent many years on the old COLJ’s website until the software with no longer support changes. So here is a new dynamic list there are mistakes and miss spellings which are all my fault. There is ai contributors list on the bottom which contains some of the people who have helped this site progress. It is a common site for everyone to use at no charge. Please send any additions or corrections to me and I will try to post them.
