Hi Fred,
Yes, we definitely do have a link!My great-great grandfather was Johann (Jan) Gerardus (Geerd) Henricus (Hindrik) Wobben, his son Johan Benedict Dominic was my great-grandfather, George Wobbe was my grandfather.Years ago I corresponded with Mercedes Lager.Are you related?The reason for the double names for Johann was that during the Reformation babies who were baptized in the Catholic Church also had to be baptized in the Protestant Church.I had a researcher in Hanover checking out double baptism dates for me and he explained it in great detail.I have worked on this line for over 30 years and am very happy to share info.Where do you want to start?Doris Morley
