Do you think George could be a variation of Gerd?Because I have a great-great grandmother named Elizabeth Marie Menke.She was born in Cloppenburg, Germany on October 4, 1848 and died in Greeley, KS July 24, 1936.Her father's name was George Menke, born in Germany.Elizabeth married Henry Stallbories, possibly in Illinois, because Henry enlisted in the Union Army in Illinois.
Do you have any more info besides what you posted on the message board that might help me see if we're talking about the same people?
