Hello Lois,
The LDS has various church listings on microfilm for the Evangelical
and the Catholic churches in Ankum. They are duplicates and are incomplete.
However, you never know what you may find there. It may be worth a search.
What church did the Hartke and Kamlage families belong to?
Have you tried various combinations of words with Hartke and the
Kamlage names on Google? You can sometimes stumble on someone's pedigree
online that may be helpful.
There are quite a number of Hartkes on the emigration list of Osnabrück
but not one by the name of Heinrich Louis Hartke:
PERS Hartke, Anna Marie 26419
PERS Hartke, Anton Joseph 7445
PERS Hartke, Anton Joseph 7446
PERS Hartke, Bernhard 7426
PERS Hartke, Eleonore Henriette 25535
PERS Hartke, Elisabeth 7455
PERS Hartke, Friedrich Wilhelm 26419
PERS Hartke, Hermann Heinrich August 24607
PERS Hartke, Hermann Heinrich August 24608
PERS Hartke, Johann Diedrich 6816
PERS Hartke, Johann Eberhard 7321
PERS Hartke, Johann Friedrich 26419
PERS Hartke, Johann Friedrich 6815
PERS Hartke, Johann Friedrich 6816
PERS Hartke, Johann Friedrich, senior 26419
PERS Hartke, Johann Heinrich 7321
PERS Hartke, Johann Heinrich 7447
PERS Hartke, Johann Heinrich 7449
PERS Hartke, Johann Hermann Bernhard 7447
PERS Hartke, Johann Hermann Bernhard 7448
PERS Hartke, Johann Hermann Bernhard 7449
PERS Hartke, männl 25536
PERS Hartke, männl. 25535
PERS Hartke, männl. + weibl. 7446
PERS Hartke, Marie Elisabeth 26419
I could help you to explore those names if you think there are any that
would fit. I know Louis is often listed as Ludwig, but there are none with
that name. Heinrich may not have been his first name listed on this list.
If you had a definite name match, you can order the emigration record and
that would tell you the place of origin. There are over 300 Harkte names in
the German telephone book today.
There is only one name listed in the Osnabrück emigration archives for
Kamlage - Hermann Heinrich from Bramsche. There are over 100 listings for
Kamlage in the German phone book today, 4 of them in Bersenbrück near Ankum.
Sorry I couldn't find anything more definite.
Good luck,
Barbara
