Queries

• Jean Tennant Skar  Theodor Klinkhammer was born about 1822.  Theodor & Christine Stein came to North America 21 Feb 1852 reportedly from Dahtine ??? .  Prussia. It is reported but there is some confusion on this point that their parents came from Cologne in Germany ( possibly form Netherlands)- more on this family here

  I am seeking information about a John Francis Klinkhammer, born Nov 12, 1873, I believe in Minnesota, died in Lemmon SD on May 30, 1954.
• Roy Bommersbach <royorben@theriver.com>
  I am interested in the Klinkhamers who lived in Cogswell ND. I did not find a continuation of that name after the mid 1800s. I lived near these people in the 1940s.

My Biographical Information

My great grandmother was a Mary Klinkhammer Lethert. Her parents, Joseph Klinkhammer and Margaret Mahlberg came from Dollendorf, Germany. Because the name was relatively uncommon, I began searching early census records for the name. I also searched church and civil records of Dollendorf and the nearby villages. I found that many of the families from Minnesota and Wisconsin especially had come from this same area. I do not know how common the name is in other parts of Germany but was told there were many Klinkhammers now in the Dollendorf area.
