This Hans was the grandson of the immigrant Hans that Margaret and
I were discussing. The immigrant Hans had many descendants named
Hans. Furthermore, several of them were surgeons or physicians and
were called Mr. or Dr.; so that designation doesn't uniquely
discriminate among them. I don't know how many Hans Kierstedes
might have been alive at the same time, but it was probably more
than 2. :)

Regards,
Howard
