Your Karoline Harke is not the same as mine. My Karoline is a Helwig who married into the Harke family with Daniel Harke. It could be that your Karoline was a sister or something to Daniel Harke.

My grandfather was Adolph Helwig. He and his sisblings came to America. One was Karoline. she married Daniel Harke. All of the Helwigs had a destination of Philadelphia, to meet up with Daniel and later as they arrived, to meet up with their siblings, all in Philadelphia. Daniel arrived first though and met up with his brother Gottlieb.

Daniel came over about 1896 and by 1910 he was in Wisconsin. He stated his last residence as Bremen.

Last night I stumbled on this obit of Elsie Harke. She was the daughter of Daniel and Koroline...
