Posted on: Lancaster Co. Ne Queries Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ne/Lancaster/10548 Surname: Guelker ------------------------- I am also a Guelker. I am 19 and doing some research on my family. Our branch of the family was always told that our family came over from Germany when my great grandfather was little. We were told about three brothers. My great grandfather, who settle in West Texas, a brother in East Texas, and one who went north but was never heard from again. Their parents were Henry and Louise Guelker. But the more information I start to look for, the more I do not understand. Everything seems to contradict what I was taught. All of the years, and dates of events dont come out the as they should.
