Hi.I'm also a descendent of Johann Heinrich Bernard Holtfoerster and August and Clara Lohman.Their daughter Elizabeth married my great grandfather, Edward Otto Boeding.There is a story in our family that when Edwardstarted looking for a bride, he originally was interested in Elizabeth's older sister, who I believe would be your Mary. Edward was emphatically rebuffed, but went on to marry Elizabeth.Anyway, looks like we're distant cousins!
