Hessen: HAEFLICH
« on: Saturday 23 June 12 22:40 BST (UK) »
 My G-Grandmother, Maria Haeflich, was born in Starkenburg, Hessen, about 22nd. February, 1836. Her mother's name was Christina, and that is all I know about the family. The area in Starkenburg where she was born was wrongly stated as "Velkam". Probably a recorder in Australia not familiar with the German language.

Thanks for replies.
   Yes, her husband was Carl August Friedrich Stumpf, son of master shoemaker Johann Philipp Stump, from Babstadt, Germany. I would love to find more on her family in Germany, and am wondering if perhaps the records were destroyed during the war.( Often his name is spelled with a "K", but his birth record shows it with a "C".)
