Biography

Sophie appears to have used two surnames: Grotthart/Grolkast and Ziesenity/Ziesenatz plus numerous variations of both of these. I don't know why this is, but a stepfather, adoption or illegitimacy are all possibilities. The last of these is intriguing. Children of unmarried mothers were usually registered in the mother's name, so why wasn't Emma? Robert may have been, since he didn't appear on the BDM scan under "Buerman". - Geoff Turner.
