DNA match!

Ingeborg, a relative has sent you a message
“Hello! I am so sorry as I have not been on here in so long and am just now starting to get into building my family tree in ancestry, although I have a pretty good start so far! I am 44 yrs. old -my maiden name is Schlecht. Both of my parents were born in the US although the heritage goes back to Germany on both sides. I noticed on the genetic relationship it shows we are related by 3rd great grandparents….That is exactly where I am in my family tree as I don’t have as much information so deciphering it is tricky! Do you have the names of the grandparents in your tree? I’m assuming its from my fathers side (Schlecht) – my father is Robert Eugene Schlecht, born in 1941 although there are several Robert E. Schlecht’s even within the family – very confusing! Do you have any other names of grandparents as well? Look forward to working with you! Lisa (Schlecht) Moliterno”

I just got a message from a fifth cousin match to my mom Ingeborg Seidel. I am super excited.

Hi Tanja, Most of my family are from Western Ukraine and Poland. However after receiving your message I do see some 4th and 5th cousins from Germany. I only know of the following family records from my mom’s side..

And most likely the family line is connected through my great grandfather, and maybe through my great grandmother. The story of Great grandfather is little interesting, and I only know the latter part of it. He was born in 1910. He was married and had a child around 1934. Right before WW2, he went to Germany for work and ended up in the concentration camp.

After the war there was a program to sponsor Ukrainians in German concentration camps to go to US. So he went to US around 1949.

Us records indicate: Wasyl Trembacz – arrived 1949 from Bremerhaven Germany to New York. Born in 1910 visiting 3036 Linder Ave, Chicago Illionis He eventually had my great grandmother to come to US where they lived until sometime in 1970.

In Chicago he worked in a German factory where he lost two of his fingers in an accident. After that he was on medication which caused early onset of dementia and paranoia. As a result he had car accident, after which my great grand parents decided to go back to Ukraine (Soviet Union). So I suspect that the reason he went to work to Germany was because he had some relatives there, but nobody knows at this point. I ended up in US through my father’s side. I hope this helps. Thanks, Andrey

Paul Schultz

I am researching my Uncle Paul Schultz. He married an Elly Hohenhaus, geb. am 26.06.1901 in Berlin, evangelisch, gibt es eine Karte. Demnach hieß ihre Mutter Berta Hohenhaus, geborene Pinnow, geb. am 03.10.1879 in Kallies. Sie hat am 27.5.1947 beim Standesamt Tempelhof unter der Nummer 291/1947 Paul Schulz aus Magdeburg, geb. am 23.5.1900 in Magdeburg, geheiratet und dann in Mariendorf, Kurfürstenstr. 1 gewohnt. Sie war technische Angestellte.

Schultz Family

I am trying to find out more about my Uncle Paul Schultz weather it be bad, good of whatever it might be. What I do know ( from the Berlin Landesarchiv in Berlin )

I know he was born n Magdeburg and somehow came to Berlin, Germany where he met my Aunt.

This is the Birth document from his wife, my aunt Elly Hohenhaus. I DO know he attended my parents wedding in Berlin, in 1966. Is there anyone that can help me with this by chance?!?

Sehr geehrte Frau Markgraf, in der zentralen Datenbank zu unseren Beständen erscheint Albert Emil Hohenhaus leider nicht. Das bedeutet, dass wir keine zu seiner Person angelegten Unterlagen verwahren. In unserer alten Meldekartei ist zu ihm ebenfalls keine Karte vorhanden. Zu Erna Martha Hedwig Hohenhaus ist auch keine Meldekarte vorhanden. Zu einer Elly Hohenhaus, geb. am 26.06.1901 in Berlin, evangelisch, gibt es eine Karte. Demnach hieß ihre Mutter Berta Hohenhaus, geborene Pinnow, geb. am 03.10.1879 in Kallies. Sie hat am 27.5.1947 beim Standesamt Tempelhof unter der Nummer 291/1947 Paul Schulz aus Magdeburg, geb. am 23.5.1900 in Magdeburg, geheiratet und dann in Mariendorf, Kurfürstenstr. 1 gewohnt. Sie war technische Angestellte. Mit freundlichem Gruß
