Johanna Kollien is their first born, in Germany. They came to America in 1888 and settled in Alpena, Michigan. Joohanna Kollien married Reinhold Gehrke, also from germany. I also have information on Herman and Wilkilniva Hassie's other children. I have: August Kollien married Marie Matillda Kollien married Carl Kamiske Minnie Kolllien married Max Burke Anna Kollien married Charles Kamiske Caroline Kollien married August Radtke Does any of this match your family information? I would love to know. Thanks Sandi Calder calder111@aol.com
