Seeking information on Joseph Ortmann, married to Anna Schweitering. Their children's names are:
Mary Theresa Ortmann 1876 –
Anna M Ortmann 1877 – 1943
Augustus J. Ortman 1878 –
Adelaide Ortmann Schultz 1881 –
Joseph Benard Ortmann 1883 – 1967
Catherine A Ortmann 1887 –
Herman Henry Ortmann 1888 –
Henry Anthony Ortmann 1891 –
William John Ortmann 1893
Joseph arrived in the US in 1861; Anna in 1869. The problem is that outside of "Pommern" (Prussia) I don't know where Joseph came from. If anyone has information on this, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm kind of stuck going back to Germany.
If you have any information at all on Joseph or any of his children (William was my grandfather), please contact me.
