Hi Del,
Nice to hear from you.I don't know for certain if we have a connection, but I think it's likely.I don't know too much about this part of the family yet, as I'm just getting started."Minnie" Maria Wilhelmina was born 1831 in Mecklenburg, and her daughter Frederike was born 1856 in Missouri, so that's the 25-year time span when Minnie's family could have immigrated.By the way, Minnie's first marriage, to Frederick Runge, took place in Ohio - unfortunately I don't have any further info. as to the Ohio connection.Many of my other German immigrant ancestors who ultimately settled in central Missouri first made a stop of some duration in the Cincinnati area.If I'm able to develop more information on this family, I'll be sure to pass it along.
