Guten Tag from the USA. The great-grandfather of my wife, Karl Schöning, brought his family to this country in 1883 from Mecklenburg (possibly Schwerin).Is that close to you? I am currently writing to the archive there to find records.
I have found that my ancestors came from Langenselbold, 15 km east of Frankfurt. We have visited there and were treated as honored guests by the Kirschner families who still live there. I find that German-American relations are very good everywhere I travel in your country.
Thanks for sending greetings.Is the name Schöning found in very many towns in Germany or is it only found in a few places?
