The obit for Oom Paul Kruger was of course for the famous President of South Africa, Paul Kruger. There are many people in South African with ancestry including Paul Kruger. Unfortunately my husband's South African Kruger ancestor is a Johann Kruger, another Kruger family, born ca 1730, in Pomerania, Germany. His son, Johann Kruger, born 1750 in Stralsund, Pomerania, Germany, arrived in South Africa 1765 as a soldier. Is any one related to my Kruger research?
