Myra,
My great grandmother was named MIEHE and she was from Heersum.. Her grandfather was Melchior MIEHE, also from Heersum. My MIEHEs came to the United States in 1851. I do not have any info on Melchior MIEHE except that he was married to a Sophie RAUTEN. My great grandmother's father was Johann Heinrich Miehe, born abt 1809, and his wife was a NIEMEYER. There are AHRENS in my part of the country. You can contact me at lpw74@charter.net if any of these names ring a bell.
