Hello-My grandfather was Fred Claassen, who was Ernest's younger brother. We visited up there when I was a kid and stayed at the old farm. Ernest and Fred's father was John Claassen, from Reimersvalde, Germany. His father was a Peter Claassen. Fred came to Illinois in the early years of the last century and married Sarah Wheeler, my grandmother. Let me know if I can provide any other info. or if you have more info on the Claassen family history. E-mail for me is jenkinsrg.(a)hotmail.com
