With those dates, you should be able to get some birth or death
certificates of the parents or children.
Good luck,

list and I understand there are a lot of helpful researchers on this list.
I am looking for information on the parents and family of Maj. Herman
Kretz b. September 5, 1837 in Reading, PA.
From The Historical and Biographical Annals of Berks County
Pennsylvania compiled by Morton L. Montgomery, published by J. H.
Beers, WEBER, HARRY C., p. 1635, Maj. Kretz was a brother to Mrs.
Anna Kretz Weber (wife of Julius Weber), and Charles Kretz.
Herman married Emily Matilda (unknown surname) about 1855. She was
born April 13, 1840 in Reading, PA. I am also trying to find Emily'
maiden name. Herman Kretz died in Washington, DC and Emily Matilda
died in Harrison Co., TX
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
