Von Hohenhausen

I was browsing Ancestry and the internet.. I went into my family tree and when I search for a Hohenhaus match .. I came up with this in the search bar… I am posting because my dad who is almost 80 and doesn’t know about the Von Hohenhaus family said that his mother Erna Hohenhaus ( Erna Martha Hedwig Hohenhaus her parents Albert ” EMIL” Hohenhaus and Bertha Auguste Pinnow ) said that there was a VON HOHENHAUS family in our family … and was wondering if someone could help me research this… 🙂 Thanks!

Hello Tanja So sorry I didn’t answer your message! I’m very interested to find out how we are related! My maternal grandmother had ancestors from Germany, some of them called Hegardt and Tamm. She was born Ingeborg Hegardt in 1908 in Stockholm. Her mother was called Ingeborg Tamm. I was born in Norrtälje, Sweden 1961. Please send me an e mail lottakjellberg@yahoo.co.uk Looking forward to hearing from you!! Lotta

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
