NAME: Don Granzow
I am interested in finding descendants of my g-grandfathers brother,
FRIEDERICK GUNDLACH.
He was born in Germany, April 1, 1837 and was given the name Christian
Friederck Johann Gundlach. He arrived in New York June 1, 1857 along with
his parents and his brother Theodore (my g-grandfather) and his sister
(Sophia).
Theodore bought a farm near New Baltimore in Sept. 1857.
In 1859 FRIEDERICK filed a Declaration of Intent to become a
Naturalized citizen.
The 1860 Census indicates that FRIEDERICK was working as a farmhand for
Paul and Elizabeth Brinker in New Baltimore.
I have lost track of FRIEDERICK after this date.
He may have moved to Erin or Warren Townships.
I would appreciate any information on this individual.
