Hi, my ancestors came from Lohfeld, near Porta Westfelica. In the US the name
is spelled PAPPE but in Germany all I can find is with the spelling PAPE. My
grandfather was Carl Henry Pappe (Pape). His father was Henry Pappe and his
mother was Katherine/Katherina Strawmuller/Strawmiller
One document I have shows that Carl emigrated Germany 1880 don't know from
where.
One document I have shows that Carl lived in Altenberg, Germany
He is definitely my"brick-wall" one place shows him to be born April 1844
another place says 1850. I just have not been able to substantiate any
information on him.
If you can please help me find my grandfather. Thank you
