Andrist Memorials


David Andrist, Pieterlen, Switzerland

David Andrist memorial stone/plate (German) David Andrist was a secondary school teacher and renowned prehistoric exlorer. He discovered and documented sites dated back to stone age. Some of the site where found in "Simmental" (valley of river Simme) where Andrists roots are from. Not sure this is proof of our longterm Andrist provenance ;-)
