Thoms familly from Buffalo, NY.
My great grandfather Ernest Woodrich married #1 Augusta THOMS.She was the daughter of Philip and Sophia THOMS who were from Meckelnberg Strelitz, Germany...A specific town may be Woldegk.Enrst and Augusta were married abt. 1871 in Buffalo, New York.They had two daughters Emma and Ida.Augusta died in April of 1877... Ida was born in 1876 and Emma in 1872.I believe that Philip and Sophia had a son Ernst and wondered if the Ernst from Waverly, Iowa may be that person....Emma born 1872 married an Adam Dillemuth and had five children before she died of TB.Her sister Ida never married and also died of TB both abt. 1900 in Buffalo, New York.Sophia, Augusta, Ida and Emma are all buried in the Woodrich plot in Buffalo, New York..If you have any thoughts on a connection please let me know.I would be most happy to share any information that I have.Sara Neeb Burkholder
