I now live in St. Louis, MO.
My grandfather was Otto August E. Paap (Nov 14, 1878 - Apr 10, 1952)who emigrated from Germany. Otto married Minnie Bertha Sophia Loppnow (Jan 24, 1879 - Sep 3, 1940). Otto and Minnie settled in Racine, County, WI, and raised 12 children. Otto's father was William (Wilhelm) H. Paap (1852 - 1923).

I am wondering if there is any connection between the Paaps in NE and WI. I am just beginning research, but I believe Otto and kin may have originated in Pomerania (Pommern). David E., can you shed any light on this?

David, sorry for the belated message. There may be a tie between us. My father is Walter E. Paap, born in 1911, Feb. His father was Erwin Paap, both of Otoe Neb. I can't remember my Great Grandfather's name. I need to ask my father, who is 80, to recall his names.Will send more later as learned. Regards, David

David, Thank you for the info. unfortunately, I live in Atlanta, Georgia so this makes discovery difficult logistically. What i know for certain is this; My father Donald Herbert Paap born 7.11.1917 died 1.8.1976, buried in Punchbowl National Memorial Cemetary, Hawaii. He was the son of Herbert Paap (I think) and Opal Paap(Berryman). I do know that Opal is buried in NE. Most likely near her husband. My father had three sons: Donald Stewart Paap born 1945, John William Paap born 2.3.1966(me), and Brian Herbert Paap born 9.29.1969. Finaly, I your great uncle Frederick Paap, brother of Erwin Paap, Is my great grandfather, then we would be 2nd or 3rd cousins? If you come accross any more info please contact me...jpaap@estexmfg.com.Thanks again. John

found some details of Frederick Paap on Familysearch.com. He was born in 1839 in Berlin Mecklenburg Germany and was married with Caroline Sturm. Died in 1912. Look under his name on that side. You might find more and the children
