↑ Source:#S1 from Wilma dated 1 Jan 2007 I also believed that Henry belonged to Clara. I had a researcher in Germany look into the birth and found that it was Maria who was the mother. I have the records in Indiana that tell of the father of Maria,Valentin, went to another town and filed the birth record. It does not show who the father was. I think that may have been the reason they came to the USA. They came to be with a brother of Elizabetha,wife of Valentins brother. His name is Becker and he was a preacher. Will give you those records when I return to Indiana.
