I have Daniel Schiller / Karoline Lemke who I believe are connected to
my Leske and Steinbrenner families
but haven't found how also. What I have for this family is: Daniel b.
5/29/1822 f. Kristian
m. Marie Elizabeth ?. Married 10/27/1841, Turek, to Anna Karolina
Lem(p)ke b. 11/10/1823 Borowiec to
Michael Lempke and Kristina Moritz. Daughter Julianna married Marcin
Steinbrenner b. 1822 in Borowiec.
Checking my copies of marriage records for this area, I don't see this
one, and I don't have any notes
on where I got this info from.
I have all of the Grodziec and most of the Stawiszyn films on permanent
loan at my LDS center but
unfortunetly it closed about a year ago and I haven't sent the films to
another center.
Many of the surnames found in Grodziec came to Milwaukee and must have
kept in touch since the
Register of Visitors to my great-grandmothers funeral, Ludwika Leske
Hammerling, are those surnames.
A Gene Schiller was one of them.
