Donna,
Sorry but the names are not familar.The only thing I can suggest is...do you have any information on any relatives who immigrated to Poland or Prussia or Volhynia.As for my family it is a pretty strong hunch that they immigrated from Germany to Poland (1800-1820)and then Volhynia (1840-1860)and then to America (1880-1910).In several records we have the name was "missppelled" several times because of sound or interpretation, etc. Stier, Steyer, Steuer, and even Stener.Have you looked at the SGGEE.com site?Most if not all my family is listed on that site.Maybe from your end a connection might be found.Your records go back much furthur than mine.I will be curious to hear what you find.
My family names...Reck, Felske, Kehle/Kohle, Steier, Winterle, Thiele.
regards,
Tim
