This is my first post. I'm trying to find anything on my great-grandfather. His name was Husar, and his name began with a G. He married my great-grandmother Louise Stelzner Gall (a widow) in Prussia. They came to the Wisconsin in the early 1900s, but I was told G. probably came under the radar. I don't know why. He travelled back and forth between America and Europe for his business and died in Germany on one of his trips. He was buried in or near a large military installation. Very vague...I know. I tried to decipher the signature on a postcard from him. I don't read or speak German. As near as I could tell from a German alphabet table, his given name could have been Godnich, Godmich, Godeich or Godwich. My dad thought his name was Gottlieb or Gottfried, but nothing showed up on any of those names. There was some talk that he could have been French. He served in the military. Any suggestions on other places I can look to find more? I've been unable to locate anything on him on LDS, Rootsweb and many other sites. Suggestions on his name would also be welcome.

Laura, get his military records. They have a wealth of information. Carol
