Hi, Daniel, Jeanee and list -
Jeanee just had emailed me with the suggestion that Valteari was probably Walteri; and the information that she had found 2 family groups in that location/ time period that look as if they could be the right one. Perhaps we could persuade her to send them to both of us? (Pretty please, Jeanee??) I am continually grateful to those who offer their help and expertise so freely and graciously. I volunteer lookups in my own county as it is the only way to really say thank you to all the wonderful people who have helped me.
Daniel, the only information I have is from Johanna's sons death certificate which states she was born in Leer, Hannover, Ostfriedsland, Germany. As her son was born in Leer in 1842, and he was one of the younger of 7 known children, I am assuming her birth at approximately 1805 - 1815 til I can find more. As I told Jeanee, I just found out that she came to this country in 1867, and died in Chicago 1890 give or take a year or so. Next step is to find death cert. or obit. Wouldnt a connection be great???? Cynthia
