I am working with my brother in law on my wife's genealogy which includes her maternal
grandmother Martha Zobel. What we have so far is that she was born in Wyganow (now Poland)
Prussia to Henry Zobel and Maria Brandt. Henry was the son of George Zobel and Amalie
(P)Bechtold. George was born in 03.03.1833 in Prussia - Prov. Posen, Kr. Strelno, village
Stodoly and was the son of Johann Zobel and wife Erlinda (Eva Christine b. Lindemann). We
have no information about where Johann was born or where he came from. Your posting is
very interesting because we know from the history of the Posen area that there were many
attempts to settle more Germans from the west to overbalance the Slavs and keep Prussia
German. I would be very interested in receiving any more information you can send me on
the Hergisdorf genealogical table and history you mention.
Thanks in advance
Brian Cook
