My grandfater was Carl Iffland of Frankfort Germany.
He married Emma Schussler my grandmother and had a child Margeretha Maria Schussler -who is my mother.
They lived in Frankfort Germany where Carl was a well known Tailor. My mother only remembers that he was very handsome and well respected. He died when she was very young. But many attended his funeral.
When my mother married my father she moved to the US (he was in the military).
She remembers very clearly that my grandmother worried about her and told her if you ever need anything that you have relatives in New York. My mom never did and since has lost all evidence.
She thinks she is the only person left of the Ifflands and Schussler.
Any information on the ifflands of New York will help me.
thanks
Curtis
