Greeting to all the members!

I have already posted the family names I am researching- but perhaps once

                                ( Alwine Mathilde Wilhelmine born 1825,
daughter of the two persons listed above)
Koeln am Rhein:
             STRAUFF Wilhelm
                              Caroline Margarethe (nee' KARSTADT)

Margarethe) ( a Lithographer)
                               Carl August Johann 1853
(son of Michael & Alwine MAFFRY)
                               Anna ca late
1850s (daughter of " " ")

                             Erhart (brother of ")
                             Kunigunde Christian (niece of Pauline)
              FEUCHT ( 2nd husband of Anna Koerner Hamper)

I also want to know exactly what a Barber did in the early 1800s- I think
he was more like a medical practitioner without being a doctor....but I
want more clarification

Thank you all
