Greetings, List Members! I have several brick walls but this one is the most interesting and perplexing. Jürgen Christian DETTLEFF born ~1821 maybe in Hamburg, Germany immigrated from Hamburg to the Falkland Islands by 1841 on board the ship "Montgomery." He stayed there and married Mary MURRAY in July 1850. Mary was born in Ireland in 1824 and there was a Christopher Murray who was a witness to their marriage. Jürgen (Jeergen) and Mary had 8 children: James Christopher b. Apr 1851 - don't know where he went. Jane b. Aug 1852 - married Richard McDonald NUGENT. John b. Mar 1854 - married Caroline Jane RUMMELL William b. Oct 1855 - d. Jul 1913 - no known marriage Thomas Marquis b. Aug 1857 - married Mary Ellen LEHEN Michael b. Jul 1859 - d. 1927 - no known marriage Mary Ann b. Mar 1861 - married George HURST Hansen b. Oct 1862 - married Francis Charlotte HOLLEN and Alice Mary HOLLAN (Van Hollen ?) Some of these people and their offspring stayed in the Falklands and others went to South America, North America, Great Britain and Australia. I am looking for any relatives of the above people and am especially interested in any connection to any Dettleff in Hamburg. The name Dettleff is rather rare and yet I cannot find a connection to this family. My Dettleff roots come from Segeberg and then Bremen to the United States. The name became Dettleff from Detleff about 1838 so I feel strongly that there has to be a connection to this Falkland Islands family. Thank you. Gloria Dettleff - Florissant, Missouri, USA

Can anyone tell me how to get information from Kiel? I grandparents ( August and Ella Lethi; Max and Emma Auerbach ) who died in Kiel between the years of 1947 to 1962. All the record offices I have tried in Kiel claim they have NO records for eithjer family. This makes no sense; had these deaths occurred in WW II I could understand. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Rolf Lethi

Margaret, We might have a connection. Did your Ingeburg Dorothea Petersen b: August 21, 1846 and her husband, Frederich Broder Petersen b: August 21, 1845 have a son by the name of Peter who married Meta Ericksen in Crawford County, Iowa? Peter and Meta were married March 31, 1910 in Boyer, Iowa. They had two sons; Alvin and Elder? Meta Ericksen was a sister to my grandmother, Ella (Ericksen) Riessen. Jerry Riessen

Dear Members, In the winter of 2000 I started to built a site about the history of the wars of Schleswig-Holstein. http://www.ahnenforschung-sh.de/history/e/history.htm First I wrote about the history of SH and later I wanted to write about the wars. Until today only a few of the sites about the wars are ready. I drove (sometimes with my family) to the places where the battles took place and made some photos. Please find here 24 photos about the entrenchment's near Düppel (in Denmark) where one battle of the war 1864 took place: http://www.genealogy-sh.de/cgi-bin/diashow.cgi After approx. 15 seconds the next photo is loading automatically.

Dear Members, In February 2002 I drove to Albersdorf because my youngest daughter wanted to climb up on the observation tower. I took my camera with me and made some photos from above on that tower. By deleting some files from my harddrive I found the photos and thought that maybe some one of you has ancestors in that area and is interested to see how the area looks like. Please find 10 photos at: http://www.genealogy-sh.com/cgi-bin/diashow.cgi After approx. 15 seconds the next photo is loading automaticly. Regards, Hans Peter Voss ; Schleswig-Holstein

Dear Mr. Voss, Did you recieve the package I sent you on my Sievers family line? Do you think this is something you can research? How can we begin this process? Is there a form I need to complete to hire your services? Tom Gannon

Hello Michael, Thank you for checking the 1835 census for the Luetjenburg and Oldenburg area. I'm disappointed that he wasn't listed. Now I am wondering where to look next. I appreciate you checking the census for me! A question.....are Luetjenburn and Oldenburg near one another? Joy

My Sievers line supposedly originated in the Frisian Island area and then resettled in and around Burg/Kuden/Ditmarschen after storms decimated the islands. Always looking for Sievers cousins including maternal lines. Maternal lines include: Teden (Theden, Tede), Johannsen, Ehlers, Führen, Thororsten, Timmen, Schillhorn, Heesch, , Möller, Harms, Lohman, Hollm, Gathje, Hack, Jessen, Scheel, Behrens, Böye, Rasmus, Mohn, Bielenberg.

My Severin family lived in the area of Neumunster and Oldenburg, Grube, Cismar (near Fehrmarn). I have the line back to the 1600's so I doubt I'll get back further in time. But I am always looking for cousins. Some maternal lines include Danker, Valentiner, Succow, Thegen (Teegen), Hasch, Hartmann, Pohlman, Bestmann, Todt. Gary

Hi all, I have Jochim MOELLER md to Abel FOELSTER IN 1688 - does anyone go further back with that family?
