Eidelstedt is a district of Hamburg. I am not sure, but before WW2 I think it was a suburb of Hamburg. Loruperstrasse is not the right name for sure. Lurup is another district of Hamburg (as well a former suburb) next to Eidelstedt and I think the right spelling should be Luruperstrasse. Today there is no street called Luruperstrasse. Maybe it has existed before Eidelstedt, Lurup etc. became part of Hamburg and grew together. In Hamburg you can find 'Luruper Weg', 'Luruper Hauptstrasse' (Lurup Main Street), 'Luruper Drift' and 'Luruper Chaussee'. None of them is in Eidelstedt, all are located in Lurup or Halstenbek. The phone register of Hamburg returns thirty entries with the name 'Tonn'. If you use 'Timm' there are much more. Btw. 'Timm' is the maiden name of my mother. It's very popular in the Hamburg and south-western Schleswig-Holstein region. Greetings from Germany Karsten Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
