However, subsequent research has shown me that her husband was born in or around Stralsund and that he had 2 younger siblings born in Jatznick, which is less than 7 miles from a Meiersberg, so that's why your Caroline Scheer (nee Krueger) interested me. Thanks for your reply. Richard Johnson Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
