Born 1839 Gerhard Lampe Lee County, Iowa
Hi everyone I came across this site and became curious about my fathers (Lloyd Joseph Lampe Jr.) side of the family. He never mentioned them. I found a decent amount of information from findagrave.com where it shows my Great Great Grandfather was Gerhard Lampe. I was curious where in Germany he was from. I saw he was married to Christina Overberg and saw on her ppl from her side of the family posting.
Another thing I was trying to find more information on is about a label I found in 2001 at my Grandmas (Thelma Lee Lampe) house. It's from Germany without any date for "Stachelbeeren Gooseberries." It states on the label the manufactuer was "C. Th. Lampe" from Braunschweig, Western Germany.
Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks!
