Ralph, may have mentioned this before, but here's a possible (circuitous!) lead:
Frank Henry Vonderhaar's death certificate (he's a son of Johann Gerhardt and Magdalena Dollman) listed Elizabeth Schricte as his mother's name under the heading for her maiden name. Could she had married a Schricte, become a widow, and then married Johann Gerhardt? My grandmother Emma Louise (Henry and Emma's daughter) used to say we were related to the Schrictes, although I haven't yet been able to make the connection. Good luck!
