Surnames: König, Lembcke, Fick, Lemmermann
I am looking for descendents of Maria König of Duvenstedt, Hamburg, Germany. According to letters written from Germany in the 1940's & 50's to my grandmother, Clara Lembcke Fick they were cousins. Clara (1894-1977) was the daugher of Henry Lembcke (1860-1947) of Barnkrug, Germany and Gesche Lemmermann of Ahrensmor, Germany. Henry & Gesche married in 1883 in Germany and came to Stevens County, Minnesota USA in 1885. I do know from other letters that Henry Lembcke had a nephew Hinrich Lembcke still in Barnkrug in 1937. If anyone has information that can help make the connection between Maria König and Clara Lembcke Fick I would appreciate hearing from you.

Would this be the same Henry Lembcke that died in Kandiyohi County. St. John Lutheran of Atwater has the following entry:

Henry Lembcke, died June 5, 1947, buried Sauk Rapids. Survived by 6 children, 16 grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren.

Hi Alan,

Yes this is the same Henry Lembcke, my great grandfather. I have a photo of his 3 sisters who stayed in Germany. I'm now trying to make a connection to their descendents so that perhaps I might identify which sister is which knowing that Maria König is a daughter of one of them. I may be able to learn more on another trip back to Salt Lake as I have identified the parish for Barnkrug since I posted this email nearly 5 years ago.
