Re: WIENKE family from area Posen

I am writing for a friend whose maiden name is Wienke. Her father's name was William Frederick. I know that his ancestors were from Germany but am not sure what part. She knows of some relative in Indiana (USA). Both of her parents are deceased so she is limited on information. She said the name "Ruscopt Wienke" was mentioned sometime that she remembers but does not know what relation.

Thanks,
Pam Barnes
