I am looking for information concerning my grandmothers line. Her maiden name was Marotzke and was from Hamburg. Her father's name was August. She was born in Farland, Germany. Any help on where to look would be appreciated..

If you come up with info I would be curiuos.

My grandfather was Otto Marutske (Marotzke) YOB 1879
His mother Carolina YOB 1845. Immigrated 1885 from Germany.

The mystery puzzle .. so much fun to find pieces.

My grandmother was Bertha Boetcher/Boettcher nee Marotzke, born April 1862 (where? good question - sometimes census shows Wisconsin, sometimes Illinois, sometimes Prussia). I MAY have a possible answer regarding to Carolina. Please email me at jacksobj@gmail.com. Thanks.
