Webmaster's Note: No microfilm records appear in the 16th CD-ROM version of the FHL Catalog for Eltze, Uetze or Wunstorf. However the Kappmeyer surname is mentioned once (FHL microfilm 0962152, item 7) in the FHLC surname search section. Genealogy for that surname may well exist within the larger body of surnames in Ahnenstammkartei des Deutschen Volkes

I am looking for the village where my ancestors came from. Christian DEPPE was born 18 November 1817 and married Caroline BAKKE (born in 1923). They had 7 children (six of whom were born in Germany): Christian, Caroline, Louisa, Dorothea, Sophie, August, Minnie, and Herman (U.S.) I have reviewed their immigration papers, passenger lists, census records, death certificates etc. that I could find. ALL of them list Hannover as the place of origin. I had someone check the town of Hannover church records and they could not find a listing for my relative. I now assume they were from the Kingdom of Hannover. But where?

I am searching for the parents of Louise and Adolph RODEWALD who were born in Hannover and emigrated to the US, arriving at New York City on the bark "Union" 1 June 1855. They departed from Bremen on 4 April. Louise was born 11 May 1831, and her brother Adolph on 18 Nov 1828, I believe in the village of Rodewald. Adolph's naturalization state he was born in "Interbash," but that was an English speaking clerk talking to a German speaker, so that was what the place name sounded like. Any information on the family RODEWALD or the village Rodewald would be helpful. I have RODEWALD information from Schloss-Kirchenbach but have not found it helpful.

I am researching the family of George Frederick (Georg Friederich?) HÜLSEBERG (also spelled HÜLSBERG, HUELSEBERG, HUELSBERG) born 25 June 1859 at the Village of Freschluneberg (or Frischlüneberg) in the Lutheran Parish of Beverstedt in the Kingdom of Hannover. (See the web page on him at: http://genweb.net/~turner/hulsebrg.htm). The LDS has filmed portions of the Beverstedt records, but not the years when George's parents were married, or when George and his 8-9 siblings were born. Can anyone suggest how I can get copies of these church records? Does anyone know how to get copies of the Beverstedt civil records? The LDS did film some earlier records, so I have George's father's birth record: Johann Hinrich Bernhard HÜLSEBERG, born 10 November 1837 Frischlüneberg, Hannover, and some records for earlier generations (Look under HÜLSEBERG in my online genealogy database at: http://genweb.net/~turner/turner.htm).

I am seeking information on this family. I have been unable to locate hometown in the kingdom of Hannover or any more family information or relatives. Casper Vogt was born 6 April 1842 in the kingdom of Hannover. His father: Conrad Leonardi VOGT. His mother: Elizabeth Anne MENSING / KLONNING or GEISLING. His sister: Gertrude VOGT. His relative: Christing VOGT of Baden. Casper emigrated to America at age 20 years. He came directly to Cincinnati, Ohio and lived the rest of his life there. He married Mary DUVEL. Her father was John Henry DIECKMAN / DIECKMANN DUVEL of Hunteburg. Her mother was Mary Adelheid REUVERS. Mary Adelheid's father was John REUVERS and they emigrated to America in 1850. Casper's business associates were August MUELLER and Albert KRUSLING. Mary Duvel was Roman Catholic. Casper may have been Roman Catholic but may have converted from Lutheran as he asked to be creameted at his death-a procedure that the catholic church was strongly against at that time. I would be grateful for any information at all.
