I am helping a friend track down her maternal family line, related to Elfriede Schmidt, born 3 Apr 1928 - family paperwork says "Schoenfeld, Kreis Brieg". She married a US soldier, Bill Turek, around 1958; they lived in the "Patch Barracks" in Stuttgart until they moved to the US sometime after 1959. Elfriede died in Florida in 2001, we believe. Does anyone have any information that could help us track down her family? I know Schmidt is likely a common name, so any help you can offer would be appreciated.
