Hello to Olaf Hagemeyer,
I do not read, write nor speak German.
From your surname, I decided to write and see if you might be decended from
my ancestor.
Her name was: Margaretha Anne Holtmeier-Hagemeier
Her husband was: Heinrich Carl Pape
Her parents were: Johann Heinrich Holtmeier and Anna Margaretha Elisabeth
Hagemeier
These folks all lived in the early 1800s.
They lived in a village called Lohfeld near Eisbergen and/or Hausburg.
Hope you can find someone to read this to you.
Thanks,
Antonie, Fort Worth, Tx.
Dear Antonie,
unfortunately I think we are not members of one family. My family lived in
Willebadessen, which is a small village located nearly 30 km eastern of
Paderborn. My familiy is catholics.
Lohfeld is a village about 100 km far in the north.
Today I have no idea whether there are any connections between the lot of
"Hagemeyers" in this two regions, because of informations are lacking in
time before of about 1700. One of the hypotheses is, that the same surname
was created in different locations in different families whiout any
connection. But it is an idea only, not more.
I give you a link, which coul help you:
