Hello Stephan,
Just was looking into my Uncle Elmer Jeske's census information and found that his father, Emil, was also from Pommern as was his father Frederick(sic) and his wife Bertha. Emil's sisters were Mata and Anna(twins) b. January 1885, Emma b. April 1887, Clara b. August 1894 in Illinois and Martha b. January 1897 in Illinois as well. The family emigrated from Pommern and settled in Aurora, Illinois between 1889 and 1893. I do not know too much about the country of Germany. Where exactly is Pommern?
Best of luck to you,Dawn Lyons-Schneider
