RIKLI FAMILY HOME PAGE

This Rikli Family Website is dedicated to the Arthur Rikli Family, pictured below in a 1920 photo taken on the 50th Anniversary of Arthur and Margaretta Rikli (see newspaper article below). Our most famous family member, Arnold Rikli (father of Arthur), will be highlighted as well as will be earlier generations of family members who resided mostly in the area of Wangen on Aare, Switzerland. This website was made possible only by the three-quarters of a century work by Dr. Arthur E. “Buck” Rikli. Buck, we thank you. Please send any comments to charlesrikli@gmail.com.

Rikli Family Crest.
I have had questions from two family members concerning the meaning of the symbols on the crest.
I do not know the answer but I am trying to find it. If any one has any info please contact me.

This site is a work in progress and I am learning. The prior site had to be scrapped because I could not work with the hosting organization due to a number of reasons. This site will improve daily, but can only contain the pictures that I have, thus there are many pictures of the Will Rikli Family and the Roland Rikli Family. I ask all my cousins to send me their family pictures and I will put them on this site.

Still learning about links. To make sure you see all the pages, mouse on the printed page names and mouse on the small links.

Thanks,
