Hi Greg,
It looks like we have a match! I have a William John Effertz married to Bertha Hohn. Their children are Magdalena, John, Maria Christina, Lucy Agnes, Cecelia and Edward. (Edward died as infant).
William's younger sister Lucy married Christ Schilz, my G-G Uncle.
I would love to trade family history. Email me direct.
Thanks
Mary
