Hello I am helping a man whose mother was a GOTTSCHALK, grand daughter of Carl August b.abt. 1818 & Caroline Auguste GROSSE b. abt. 1831 who emigrated here to South Australia.
He knows nothing of their origin.
On the IGI I have found an entry for each in Pommern, Preussen.
Carl August GOTTSCHALK b. 12.12.1816 ch. 26.12.186 Sankt Marien, Stettin Stadt, Pommern, son of George Wilhem GOTTSCHALK & Johanna Maria MARX,
and
Caroline August GROSS b. 19.5.1831 Alt Storkow, Pommern, daughter of Ernst Ludwig GROSS & Dorothea Henriette BLUMEN.
Are these familiar to you?
Regards,
Peggy,
South Australia
