Hi Grant,
Curious to know if you have any information about Maria Sovie Elisabeth Menz, who married Friedrich Wilhelm Petras? (detail of Marriage record below)
The Menz family apparently emigrated from Tucheim in Germany around 1865.Maria was the eldest of my Grandfather's aunts who he neverknew.I would love to know anything about her and her descendants that you may be aware of (and if there is any Menz family information floating around in your family history)
