I don't know if I have any Wilhelmina's in my family because my GGF did not know where he was born, or the names of his parents. I now know he had a sister named Emma Strobele that married a Eugen Kromer. They lived in Sigmaringen, Hohenzollern, Prussia at the same time my Johann and Bertha did (from 1876-1883). I am waiting for the death record for Emma Kromer to come in the next few days from Sigmaringen. Lets stay in touch and see what happens. I took a 33 marker DNA test, but no Strobele's were revealed. I am waiting for the results of the 46 marker test I took 2 weeks ago. Maybe a male Strobele will pop up.
