Hello Friends: I am researching John C. BEHRENS(dob 10/1/1837, dod 12/10/1898) who married Mary (Marie) C. KUENNEMANN (dob June 1, 1851, dod 4/21/1895) in Shell Creek Township, Platte County, Nebraska May 11, 1875. She was born in Oldenburg. Her parents were John H. KUENNEMANN and Catharine EILERS. John's place of birth is listed as Insul Ruehjen (Ruegen?). Can anyone tell me where Insul Ruegen is? John's parents were John BEHRENS and Johanna S. SANDHAGEN. Others have done wonderful research dating back to the 1700's on my Becher-Mohlmann ancestors from Hollen, Ostfriesland who settled first in Illinois and finally in Platte County. I hope to do the same with my other lines. Judy Martin
