I writing because I was looking for information on my
Grandmothers sister Ida Klipstein,
When I came across your entry, I wonder if maybe some
how our families are related.
My Great Grandfathers name was Friedrich Martin
Klippstein, he was from Storkow, Germany.
He married Mathilda Elizabeth Peetzke, from
Flackenheide, Germany
her parents were Jolia Peetzke & Augusta
Freiburg.
Together Friedrich & Mathilda (Klippstein) had
7 children:
- Emma Jean, my Grandmother,
- Martha ,
- Ida,
- Cora or Kora,
- Henry,
- Ella, and
- Edward Roy Klipstein
My Grandmother was born February 27, 1887.
The other thing that I find interesting is that Fred
& Mathilda lived in Sumpter township, Sauk Co. Wi during the 1885
census. 1895 still finds them there.
Please let me know if you think that they could somehow
be related.
I mean Klipsteins marrying Petzkes in Sauk Co, WI in the
late 1800's is hard not to believe that they were not somehow related.
