hello peter
i am busy doing my paternal family tree.."Durrheim". Originally with
"umlaut" over the u. I have not come accross any Duerrheim.
I have managed to trace my family back to Johann Durrheim b 1808 Grimm,
Prussia. He was a carpenter (zimmerman)
married to Christine Onbek b. 1808 Grimmen, Uckermark, Germany.
They left Hamburg Germany on the ship "Willhelmsburg" in mid October 1958.
Arrived East London, South Africa 13 January 1859.

If you are interested in this family I can provide you with much more and
would appreciate any info from Germany.

hello all,

i am currently researching the Duerrheim (my wifes Family) family tree, both
in SA and Germany..

interesting part is that there are currently no living Duerrheim in Germany
anymore.

I'll be able to provide some more detail in a few weeks to anyone
interested.

however i still need some help soon, with the SA part of it..

Peter
