I have added information on Paul Giencke of the Milwaukee area, born in Dargelutz (spelled?) in Mecklenburg Schwerin, son of Marie Brede Giencke and Gottlieb Giencke -- Marie was born in some Damerow, perhaps bei Waren or bei Parchim, we are not sure yet. Anyhow, go to our family website:

to look at info on Paul Giencke. I know this is an uncommon name and I am related to about a trillion Gienckes, mainly in Wisconsin but rooted in Mecklenburg Schwerin.
