BARTHELS, SIEVERS, HEYROTH, MILLER
Looking for the birth village in the Prov. of Hannover of three brothers by the name of BARTHELS: Ludwig/Louis (1.23.1831-6.19.1914), Johann (@1823-5.13.1858), and Wilhelm (10.26.1825-6.3.1884). They immigrated to the area around Mishicot/Manitowoc/Two Rivers, Wisconsin, USA, in the early 1850's. Their birth village has been mentioned as "Wellinghausen, Hannover", but no village by that exact spelling can be located (maybe Wallinghausen/Willighausen/Williehausen?). Their parents were Wilhelm and Margaretha BARTHELS, and their religion was Evangalische. The brothers married into the SIEVERS, HEYROTH, AND MILLER families. They left their parents, two sisters, and at least two brothers (Dietrich, Heinrich) back in Germany. I am thankful for all past help and direction in regard to this search and am hopeful that I may benefit from more in the future. Jim
