Hi, I am new to KING-L & this is my first post to the group. Do you have any Koenig researchers? My gr. grandfather Frederick C. Koenig was from Germany. His obituary said he was born in Weissensee, Saxony & a letter from a daughter to a Niece said he was born in Weissensee & suburb of Berlin. So you can see I am not sure when he was born.
