Hello,
I am primarily interested in Johann "John" Eikemeier who married Elizabeth Sommerlott(in)and moved to Holmes Co., OH.
However, I have corresponded with a lady who worked in Urbana, IL regarding this family. She had indicated to me that Andreas was "adopted," and therefore, not of the bloodline.
I would like to prove that one way or the other. Please understand: I am not trying to trim the family tree by removing Andreas' branch, but merely would like to know if the story is true.
Does anyone have information on this?
Thanks,
Sharon Bryant
P.S. I have some church records on this family.
