Greetings: By chance would your Joachin Lankow be related to Wilhelmine Lankow from Polzow, Prussia? Wilhelmine had a son named Carl August born 1837 in Polzow. She could have had more children, but I was given my direct lineage only.
Please email even if its a negative response.
Thank you very much.

I really don't know that much about the Joachim Lankow yet. I think his parents are Friederic Lankow and Elizabeth. But so far that's all I know about him. Could be related, but not sure yet. Will try to keep you posted.

I want to thank you Wilhelmine for a quick response. I will also contact you if there is a connection. Best wishes.

The information I have on Joachim is a translation from German as written by Joachim JF Lankow found in "The Holy Bible " owned by him and his wife Wilhelmina.
Joachim Johann Friedrich Franz Lankow from Wintz, Mecklenburg Schwerin Germany, and Wilhelmina Earnestina Naatz from Grohrann, Mark Brandenburg, Province Neumark on October 4, 1868 Were Married through Pastor Wilhelm Streissguth, Pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran St Petri Kirche. Witnesses were Mr Wilhelm Naatz and Miss Henriette Naatz.
It then Lists Joachim's Birth as June 9 1843 and Wilhelmina's Birth as May 8 1944.
and then lists their 11 Children and their Birthdates. I have more information on each line of these children if anyone is interested please contact me.
I do not have any information on Joachim or Wilhelmina's siblings. I have names that I think are their parents but I have not found anything to verify the information as of yet.

My question is about the name Lankow. I'm trying to find out how the Lankows got to Milwaukee, WI. I know my grandfather, Herbert (Adolf) was born in WI in 1893, but don't know of any relations before him. Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

What I know about the Lankow's you could probably put in a thimble, but Joachim Johann Friederick Franz Lankow was b-June 6, 1843 in Mecklenburg, Germany and somehow got to Fond du Lac, WI. and he and his wife Wilhelmina Naatz had 11 children. They all came out as a family after 1884. His parents were Frederick Lankow and Elizabeth Hager. Don't know how many children there were in that family. I'm really in the dark too as to the family before. I'm glad to see that the surname Lankow isn't dying out as much as I thought it was as that was my grandmother's maiden name. Sorry I can't enlighten you any more than that. If you should find out anything, please feel free to contact me direct.
