I also have a friend who's researching this same Oltman family in Omaha.I've been able to find a little bit on them, including a 1903 Omaha newspaper article about Henry's children.Gustave Arthur Oltman, born in 1897, died when he drowned in the Missouri River in 1903.His brother and sister, George Henry and Rosa were saved by a man who'd been alerted by other children nearby.Also found the Omaha marriage record for Henry Oltman and Kristina "Krollgren".I'm wondering if her name was perhaps Karlgren or Carlgren instead.I can't find anyone with the surname of Krollgren.
I'm a volunteer at the local Family History Center and have helped this patron when he's been the center a few times.I'm trying to contact him with some information on another family he's searching for.Does your friend happen to live in Michigan?I'm hoping to find his phone number.
