A German Prince brought his people with him, and founded New Braunfels. Is there a Braunfels region of Germany? On an interesting note, the Prince couldn’t take the weather and went home, and left the people here.

Prince, that’s right. I was thinking duke. Prince Karl of Solms-Braunfels.

And I can’t belive I misspelled Gruene. I was thinking of the Groene family, because I always mispronounced *their* name, calling it “Green” like the town of Gruene. Yikes, outliving my memory cells here.
