As usual, I am puzzled by these terse posts that come to us from a message board with the introduction of: "This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list." This latest one is a classic in its terseness. What is it with these so-called Message Boards; do they charge users by the word? Bart

There is also a small city in the former province of Hanover with the name Herzberg am Harz. Near this city, so about 10 km away, is another city with the name Osterode am Harz. I think thats your Osterow. You will find in the city of Herzberg a lot of people withn the name Klapproth. After 1866 the Kingdom of Hanover became a part of Prussia. Kind regards Horst Böcker

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Hempel, Klapperodt Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ZVC.2ACE/4062 Message Board Post: I am seeking information about a Hempel family that lived possibly in Hanover in the later middle third of the nineteenth century. Charles Hempel was born in 1822 or 23, and his wife Augusta Klapperodt was born about 1827. They emigrated with their sons (Charles, Ernest, and John) to America (Norfolk County Mass) in 1865. In the 1870 American census Charles Hempel Sr (filed under the name Hempler and indexed as Kempler) is listed as being "born in Prussia" and his wife Augusta Klapperodt (as well as the boys) born in Hanover. *However* Augusta's gravestone in Plainville Mass indicates she was born in Prussia as well (Herzberg, which is a town outside of Berlin). To complicate matters further, Charles Hempel Jr's entry in the 1880 American census indicates he was born in "Osterow" Germany. There is no such place as Osterow Germany, but there is a Wustrau Germany a few miles from Herzberg. It seems possible that the Hempels may have moved to Hanover after the birth of Charles (William) Hempel (Jr) before leaving for America in the mid 1860s from Hamburg(?). I am seeking any information that might be available about this family's origins and background in Germany.

Surnames: HAASE, BEHNKE, HINTZ Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ZVC.2ACE/4061 Message Board Post: My grandfather, Johann Julius Haase (known in the USA as "John") came from West Prussia. I have traced his family to the area around Thorn (Torun )and Bromberg (Bydgoszcz), at least for the years between 1864 and 1890.. Both are on the Vistula (Weichsel) River about 95 miles due South of Danzig (Gdansk). Basic information on this part of the “Haase” family follows... Great grandparents: Johann Haase and Juliana Ann Behnke..No data on birth or marriage dates. Believed to have come from area around Thorn and Bromberg, West Prussia. Grandfathers name: Johann “John” Julius Haase Born: May 19, 1880. Emigrated to USA in 1903, settled in Chicago. A tailor by trade. On June-3-1907 he married Clara nee Grochowske, in Chicago, IL. A Mason and a member of the Lutheran Evangelical & Reformed Church. Grandfathers Siblings: Ida Haase :Born: July 1860, Married Karl Retzke. Emigrated to the USA. Maximillian Haase:...Born between 1861 and 1879. Died at 21 years of age . Family lore has him moving (or being moved) while in his late teens first to Hannover, then to Holzminden and Bad Driberg. NOTE: One school of thought was that the family came from this area prior to moving to West Prussia Anne-Martha Haase:..Also born between 1861 and 1879. Married in Germany and had at least six sons. Husband dies during WW1. Anna Haase: Born: Approx. 1882 to '86. Married “Hintz”in Germany. Daughter “Luzi” born in Germany. Confirmed in Spandau in 1925. Luzi was born circa 1911 If it looks like there may be a connection here, contact me at janwgh@localnet.com .

Hello, I would like to thank you for your contribution(s)to the Message Board. But something was incorrect with your most recent post(s) to the boards on Ancestry.com/RootsWeb.com FYI: Please do not use a slash (/) to separate surnames in the surname field.

Hello I am wondering if any of the Waredenburg Parish Records for the Lutheran Church have been microfilmed and available online. When we were in the USAF in Germany we made a trip to northern Germany and did visit the parish there but our time was limited. I am interested in finding out more information on our family. Some of our names are Stover, Lienemann, Neimann, Speckmann and Oldenburg. They were from the villages of Wardenburg, Littel, Westerholt and Oberlethe. Any information that anyone can give me concerning research in that area would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Monna Lienemann Blackfoot, Idaho USA

The certificate is very difficult to read. 1884 marriage - Milton S. Terry, clergyman. Address - 249 W. 43rd. St., NYC Thanks for any hints you may be able to provide. Are you a professional genealogy researcher? I have done some research on Rev. Terry and I believe he moved to Evanston, Illinois in 1890 or so and was associated with the Garrett Biblical Institute which may be afiliated with the Methodist church. Perhaps old church records, if available, will be helpful with finding out where my gr, grandfather came from in Germany. Thanks again for your help.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Bennewitz Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ZVC.2ACE/4057.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I believe the family was Lutheran, since my gr. grandfather is buried in the Lutheran All Faiths Cemetery on Long Island. I have copies of both marriage certificates. One of them just says he was born in Germany and the first one, from 1878, says Ollendorf, Hanover Germany. I am not confident in the information. Each certificate gives his father a different name. The 1878 certif. says it is Hermann and the 1884 certif. says Peter. I have the names of both clergymen, but not a church, so it may have been a civil ceremony. Everywhere I turn, I seem to hit a brick wall. Incidentally, on his death certificate. it says his father's name was Christian (that now makes three different first names).
