Attempting to rationalize place names on my gen. data base I find "Lower Franconia" which I cannot translate into either a Land or Kreis and have no idea where it is.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Also I see Westphalia, Nordrhein-Westpfalz, and somewhere Pfalz by itself. Can you help straighten me out. I am trying to use the German names, and to the extent I can figure it out the appropriate historical name of the state.
