I believe your Ferdinand Mayrose was born outside Damme on October 23, 1829.
He is listed as being baptised on October 27, 1829 in Damme, as the son of
Hermann Heinrich Meyrose and Maria Engel Putthoff. The godparents were
listed as "Levans:" Johann Heinrich Kleine and "As?:" Anna Maria Meyer.
I have never been able to figure out the difference between the "Levans" and
the "As?". Also, I usually see two people listed as the As?, but there was
only one in Ferdinand's entry. The family is listed as living in Ottings
Liebzucht.
You can find all this information, and presumably the other siblings in the
microfilmed records of Damme at any Morman Family History Center.
I hope this helps.

I need to find the Damme microfilm at the FHC. The
problem is that it is going to be in German and hard
to read. But I have the same problem here with some
of the old church files.
I have a question. Do you know what the "Levans" and
the "As?" means? I don't have a clue.
Barb, I am currently reading the church records from
Damme. If I can look something up for you, I'll be
glad to help. My e-mail address is
