Looking for infor re ancestors of WALTER FRIIS, b 1902 near Hamburg. He married Wilhelmine Andersdotterson, b 1902. Walter descends from Gerhard August Friis, b 1873 in? and Klara Zothner, b. 1878 in Germany ?. Walter's wife, Wilhelmine's parents were born in Schleswig-Holstein, but her ancestors came from Denmark. Wilhelmine Andersdotterson had a politically well-known brother (an artist) named Gustav Andersdotterson (Guschi). Walter Friis is my husband's grandfather. As far as we know, none of his family ever immigrated to the US before he did in 1983. Walter + Wilhelmine had two sons: Peter and Carl Gerhard (my husband's father).
Has anyone heard of this line of the Friis family? Do you have birth, marriage, records? Thanks.
