I just saw your post on ancestry.com and although I know it is fairly old, I would love to compare some things with you. My grandfather's name was William Frank Spohnholtz and he was born around 1923, in Kane County IL. He lived in Carpentersville IL. I dont know much about this side of my family, and seeing as how this is not a very common name, I am sure there is some relation somewhere. I would love to hear from you and find out. Thanks so much!
