Hi
I know this message has been out here for over 3 years but just went on line looking up the name hamdorf which was my mother's maiden name. My grandfather was Henry Hamdorf and his father was named
Fritz Hamdorf. William was the name of my grandfather's brother and Albert was the son of Henry.
Fritz and his wife Dorthea moved to the Aitkin, MN area from
Iowa in the late 1890's I believe. Her maiden name was
Kraft.
