Has anyone done an accurate research into the history of Rudolf Hess' family. I have been told that Rudolf's father's name was Fritz and his mother's name was Clara. Does anyone know Rudolf's grandfather's name and where he was born? Or do you know Fritz's brother's and sister's names? It seems there are an awful lot of people who think they may be related to Rudolf Hess, including myself.

My great great grandfather was Conrad Hess, born either in 1816 or 1819 in Germany. He left his wife and six or seven other children in Germany and emmigrated to Canada with his son Henry, who was born September 1850. Henry married my great grandmother Cathyrn Rock in 1872 in Ontario Canada. Cathyrn was born about July 1860. Cathyrn and Henry had my grandfather George John Hess in October 1882 and emmigrated to North Dakota in 1885.

I would also be very greatful if someone could help me find out when my great great grandfather, Conrad Hess emmigrated to Canada and what ship he arrived on in what port.
