Raymond Schilke
My ancestor is a Schilk from New Jersey. Orignally he was from Alsace-Lorraine, but said he was German. Peter Schilk was a merchant seaman. I do not know his date of birth, but his last child (of three known) was born in 1920 (my mother) in Pottstown, PA. Shortly thereafter Peter disappeared - never to be heard from again.

I do not know if the spelling makes a difference.
