Charlotte Sowatzke was my grandmother, born August 11,1868, in East Prussia. Her father's name was John Sowatzke. She had a brother named Fred Sowatzke. I have no other information concerning them except Charlotte married my grandfather, August Schalla, April 14, 1886 in Waukesha, Wi.

I am not related to nor have any additional information on these surnames. R/S MAK http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiwood/ +++++++++++++++ My grandparents were Herman and Minnie Langer. They lived in Stratford in Marathon County from the early 1900's until their deaths in 1945 and 1950 respectively. Minnie was the daughter of William and Margaret (Hanan) Lawrie of Auburndale. William was in the lumber business and later a dairy farmer in Auburndale - William and Margaret are buried in the cemetery there. Herman and Minnie are buried in the cemetery in Marshfield - I don't know the name but it is on the hill above the Marshfield Clinic and St. Joseph's Hospital. My grandfather, Herman, was also in the lumber business most of his adult life. He probably worked for William Lawrie in Auburndale and later worked for many years for the Connor Lumber Company. I have geneological information on my grandmother's (Minnie Lawrie Langer) family but am trying to find out anything I can regarding Herman's origins. He supposedly was born in Germany in 1864 and emigrated to either Canada or the US around 1880 or later. He and Minnie would have been married around 1899 or 1900 - I am guessing somewhere close to Auburndale. Herman had a sister (don't know her first name) who married a Kohl - they had a son named Joseph Kohl - again, possibly living in or near Auburndale. She may be buried in a cemetery in Auburndale, possibly Catholic. My grandfather left the church at a young age, but his sister may have remained Catholic. I was in Auburndale a few months ago and found the Lawrie family plot in a small protestant cemetery across the railroad tracks from the main highway. I was also in the Catholic cemeteries there but did not know about the Kohl name at the time. I would very much appreciate any help you might be able to give me. I am hoping there is a marriage record for my grandparents that would show Herman's birthplace and parent's names or possibly a marriage record for his sister and Mr. Kohl that would give her birthplace and parents' names.

Surnames: HELT, SCOTT Classification: Death Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DGC.2ACI/1546 Message Board Post: >From the Wood County Reporter [Grand Rapids, Wood County, Wisconsin], Thursday March 11, 1897, Page 4 George Alfred SCOTT was born in Wingham, England, August 5, 1829. He came to America in 1850 settling in Maumee City, Ohio, in June of that year. There in 1854 he married Miss Margaret HELT, his faithful companion and helper. Of this union ten children were born, all but two of whom are still living. To these Mr. SCOTT was a faithful father, and his burden was made lighter by the presence of five of them in his closing days. Mr. SCOTT with his family came to Wisconsin in 1870, locating at Appleton where for five years he was superintendent of the Appleton Woolen Mills. On leaving this position, he moved to Lawrence near Westfield, where he was engaged in business until a series of misfortunes deprived him of his property. Late while employed at his usual labor in New Rome whither he had moved from Lawrence, he was stricken with paralysis. Partially recovering from this trouble he labored on though weakened, until three years ago he was again stricken. Since that time his strength has gradually failed. Since making his home in Nekoosa in July 1895, it had been hard for him to realize that his years of strength were gone. Yet he patiently submitted to the demands of his disease and quietly awaited the end, which came peacefully March 4, 1897. He gave to indifferent citizens a lesson in patriotism where at the last election, though too weak to walk, he was driven to the polls where he cheerfully and proudly cast his ballot. When leaving Ohio, Mr. SCOTT brought with him a letter from the M. E. Church. By various circumstances he was kept from presenting it though he carefully preserved it. He was a believer in Christ and his salvation. To his children and friends he has left a rich heritage of a life of trust, and has emphasized by his experiences the life of perseverance, patience and submission. As the end drew near he called to be taken to his home. And who shall say that he was not thus longing for his heavenly home? The funeral was held on Monday in the M. E. Church at Westfield with burial in the cemetery at Lawrence, where many of the old neighbors were gathered to show their love for the departed friend. The services were conducted by Rev. A. L. McClelland.
