A cousin of mine in Dearborn, MI has been trying to trace her part of the family- she wrote to see if I knew anything about our mutual grandmother. (her grandmother and mine were half sisters) this is what she sent me:
Great Grandfather Nicklaus Stoltzer has three wives who all died young. I see she spells Stoltzer with an extra T. I don't know who is right?
I told her to send me all the information she has, but as yet she hasn't answered. If I get anything I'll send it on to you.
