Hi Cathy,
my name is Gert Klingspohn from Germany.

I do not think that we are related to each other (unfortunately). My father was born 1909 in Bielin / Lubelski / Volhynia and came after the death of his parents in 1926 in the area ofKolmar to Seefeld / Laskowo near Samotschin (Szamocin). In 1937 he settled in Bismarcksruhm (Ostrowke / Kolmar). His possession included a small plot in Forest Kunkolewo Hauland. Our last visit there was in 2008.

Now I have a question about our relatives in Canada. Maybe someone can help me to find them (there are lots of cousins of mine).

I'm looking for descendants of my uncleAdolf Klingspohn (born 04.02.1904 in Bielin / Lubelski / Volhynia, died in 1992 in Penticton). He lived in Kelowna and Penticton. His children (my cousins) are:

Waltraud Dimler (born Klingspohn)
Dorothea Beckmann (born Klingspohn)
Wilfried Rudi Klingspohn
Ruth Catherine Kowalski (born Klingspohn)
Elizabeth Doberstein (born Klingspohn)
Ruben Klingspohn

Unfortunately, I have no contact to all. Can anyone help me to find them.

Greetings from Deutschalnd
Gert Klingspohn
