Robert,
After re-searching an old German family Bible, I do see a mention of Marienwerder, East Prussia, which from the net I see is a major city.There is also the word written above Marienwerder which comes up blank when I google it. The word is "Sacrasefkey".I have no idea what that means. I've researched all the siblings of my great great grandfather and have found nothing besides a census record for Edward and Carl, hoping that one of their descendants is also searching.It appears from the birthplaces that Gottlieb and Caroline married in Germany, and immigrated between 1863-1867.
It also appears that Marienwerder was at one time in Poland and then in Germany.The old family Bible mentions only Germany.The names are also spelled Wolter and Fraze.
Thanks,
Melba
