Greetings from USA,
Seeking any files on Blöte family in Oldenburg. I've been following them for years overseas to New York City, then to San Francisco, California.
My branch came from Oberndorf, Cuxhaven LandKreis, and am still looking for the complete family groups to find the link.
Some of the names associated with them are Frisius (Friesius, Frïsius), Kulenkampff/Kuhlenkampff, Kulenkamp, Greisen, maybe Grefe.
The earliest family I have are the parents of Johann Henrich Blöte born to Johann Henrich Blöte (TBD) and Clare "Marie" GRIESEN (1775-1839).
J.H. Blote (1825-1872) born 11 Feb 1925, Schwarmin, Hannover, NI, GER, died 04 Mar 1872, Oakland, Alameda County, California, buried in Mountain View Cemetery, Oakland, California in Family Plot #2.
Married to Sophia Johanna Maria FRISIUS (1826-1867) of Ovelgönne, Oldenburg, Germany, daughter of a Peter Friedrich Georg Frisius (1790-1850) and Christine Ruhstart.
J.H. and Sophia had three male children born in New York, USA:
1. (1852-1944) Heinrich "Henry" Frederik Bruno BLOTE
2. (1854-1926) William Edward Blote
3. (1861-1942) Martin Carl (Charles?) Johannes Blote
Thank you, I should like to continue tracking the ancestry further back, defining the generations.
Beth Blote
