"Ahnentafeln um 1800" by Gatzemeyer, would these be the same or similar as the volumes by Dr Philip Friedrich Wecken by the same name? I have volumes 1,2 and 4.

Dear Guenter & Bob,
Am thinking of Max Burgdorf.
I am wondering if there is a Burgdorf or Burchtorf/Burchtorff family in that book?

Hallo, Guenter
I really do not know.
I was very fortunate to have found the Gatzemeyer book. Someone sent a
relative a photocopy of two pages, but nothing to identify the book. I
posted (many years ago) a query as to the identity of the book and someone
who knew advised me. Then, about 12 years ago, I mentioned the book to a
contact; she took interest and asked her friend, who happened then to be
headed for Germany, to get her a copy. The only way she could get a copy was
to photocopy one. Then that contact lent me the book. In return, I created a
Table of Contents for the book for her. In so doing, I found the word
'Missouri' and became very interested. For publication, I transcribed the
chapter in which I found that word; the chapter was on the Machens family.
Much later, Norbert Bauerschaper sent me data that shows that the Machens
family are my cousins! In 1998, I met two of them, in Harsum; this year, I
met another, here in Missouri.
Happy New Year! Fr�liches Neues Jahr!

Hello Guenter,
sorry, that's not only volume 3, but also volume 5 (2 volumes by Gatzemeyer).
