Karla....we've been in touch before on one thing or another. My grandmother Johanna Schoolmann was born on the south edge of Wesselburen in 1839......and died in Scribner, Nebraska in 1927. I didn't see any names in your list that I recognize but thought I'd mention that if you acquire any Schoolmann, Dau, Geil, Karstens, Bruhn, Schenk in the area check with me further. John
