[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Volhynian Germans in Brazil (Krebs)

[Mauricio Norenberg]

Hi Omar,

It is very interesting! I have a Krebs with direct connection with my
family!
Hulda Krebs, who married with one of Johann's Norenberg sons around 1920 ( I
have the original marriage register!)

I think your Krebs and Norenbergs are directly related to mine and would
like to keep in touch :)

Please provide me more details whether possible.

Best Regards,
Mauricio Trindade
