 | I was born in Detroit, Michigan, as was my father Oren Geimer Lorf. My mother Annamae Perkins was born in Jersey City, NJ. My father's parents were Gottlieb Lorf, Jr. (born in Buko by Coswig-Anhalt, Germany 1854) and Ida Barbara Geimer (born in Detroit 1864). My mother's parents were Anna Louise Hosbach (born in Jersey City, NJ) and Charles Henry Perkins (born in Brooklyn, NY) and Anna's parents were Louise Thom and Martin Hosbach born in Germany.
I am especially researching Lorf, Geimer, Hosbach from Jersey City area in NJ, Thom, Perkins, Stones, Christineck, von Zerbst, Paul, Michaelis, Cross, Upton Pynes in Devon, England and Brandenburg. |
