Looking for any information on Wilhelmina. She supposedly came from Germany/Prussia in 1886. She was born in 1866. Lived in Ingham co., MI. Married Gustave Karkau. She is my great Grandmother. Don't know where in Germany or who were her parents.

A great deal of the Scneiders came from Alsace Lorraine and Manheim. Also try Wilhemine, Some of the Schneiders spelled their name Schneiderer. I know mine were part of a pallentine community

Could this be the same Wilhelmin that married Theodore Schneider in Missouri later having a son named Benjamin Gustave Schneider.
