Barke, possible variation

There is a Barkemeyer family name in the US. Some branches of family may have shortened name to Barke because of anti-German sentiment at the time of both WW I and WW II.

I've also seen this happen with regard to the
Heinmuller family. Descendants eventually became Muellers & Millers.
