Andy thank you for the reply. I do not have much data on him other than the following:
His application for "Petition for Naturalization" filed in 1921 in Portland OR, shows he was born on the 12th of June 1850, in Frastak Germany. On another death doc of one of his kids, they spelled "Frastak" , "Freistadt". I have been told by another fellow from Germany that the new town is called "Hlohvec" ???
Wilheim and his wife came to America on 21st of Dec, 1881 on the U.S.S. Ohio, from Breman and arrived in Baltimore. They later moved to Detroit then finally settled in Portland OR.
That is all I have on him. Not much I know, but one never knows what is under the rock that has not been looked at yet right??? Genealogy has a lot of mystery's and how often you say "Geez, why didn't I ask my dad that question when he was alive"??
Thank you for your interest. Who are these "People with libraries and how does one contact them??
Thanks again
Dale
