Hi Rebecca,
I believe we have a connection; I believe your Henry was a brother of my g-grandmother, Anna Helena "Lena" Emke.My g-grandmother's brother was:
Henry Emke
b.Germany?don't have actual date, but based on the death register I found in Benton Co., IA, I estimated it at 1852
m. Henrietta "Etta" Jungclaus
children:Henry
Adolph
Dora, your g- grandmother, I believe
d. 2 Oct 1897, burried: Mound Cem., Watkins, IA
If this sounds right, let me know as I have other information to share.I would also like to know if you have any information about their parents and where in Germany they came from.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Kathy
