I received this information regarding Friedrich Wassmann from someone on the Schleswig-Holstein mail list. "in a list of officers of the Schleswig-Holstein army from 1848-1851 is Friedrich Wassmann. (Source book : Jan Schlürmann: Die Schleswig-Holsteinische Armee 1848-1851, Tönning 2004, page 639) He was a Premier Lieutenant with the artillery brigade and came to this unit on March 11th, 1850 from Hannover. The war of 1848-1851 started as a civil war of the German people of Schleswig-Holstein against the reign of Denmark. Later on other German states like the Kingdom Prussia and the Kingdom Hannover sent officers and troops to support the Schleswig-Holstein army. I think Friedrich Wassmann was one of these officers from the Hannover army who was sent to Schleswig-Holstein." I'm wondering if there is a place to find the birthplace of those in the Hannover army. I believe Friedrich is the brother to my great grandfather, Anton Wassmann. Both came from Hannover, Anton born about 1816 and Friedrich about 1820, and both came to the US. I have been unable to find their exact birthplace in order to search their German roots. Thanks for any help with this. Marian http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~genealogylinks/
