This is what I know: My great-grandfather Bernhard Julius Theodor KITTEL was born 15 Oct 1855 at Storkow and was baptized at Evangelical Church in Gramenz, Neu Stettin, Pommern. His parents were Carl Gottlob Ferdinand KITTEL and Ernestine Christine Maria Sophia Bohn/Bohm. They had their 4 eldest children baptized at the church in Barwalde and were living in Valm from 1839-47 and after that were at Storkow and the church in Gramenz. Bernhard's grandfather may have been Freidrick Kittel who died 27 Oct 1850 at Storkow born in 1773. Sometime before the birth of Bernhard's first childin 1882, he married Alvine SCHEUNEMANN, born about 1850. I am not certain of the correct spelling of the Scheunemann family name. She and Bernhard her husband and their less that a1 yr old son immigrated to St. Paul, Minnesota in 1882-3. Alvine may have had a brother Henry and she definetly had two sisters who immigrated to St. Paul in the late 1870's. They were Henriette born about 1839 who married John Wilhelm KUMROW and sister Ulricke born about Oct 1845 who married in 1876 Gottfred SCHERDIN. I would like to know more of this SCHEUNEMANN family and where they lived and also where earlier generations of the KITTELS lived and who they were. I will write what I know of Bernhard Julius Theodor Kittel's military service from a translation given me from the surviving orginal military papers. PFC Kittel served from 3 Nov 1876 - 17 Feb 1877 in 2nd Company of Garde de Corps when he was discharged into the reserves in Feldgastein. On 5 Nov 1878 he was transferred into 3rd Regiment of Pommern and 8 Oct promoted to "Gefreiter" and on 15 June 1881was dischargedinto reserves in office of Cortin, County Colberg. Perhaps from this it may give a clue as to where he met his wife Alvine....perhaps she lived in Colberg??? I would greatly appreciated any assistance on this puzzle. Thanks, Dewey Roach (my mother was a Kittel) ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to PRUSSIA-ROOTS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
Hi Jan, I do not have my family traced any further back than the mid 1800s so at this time there is no way of knowing if you family and mine are interconnected. Thanks for responding.
