My father's grandmother Agnes Schilson was born in Lorch, Prussia in March 1849, emigrated to America in July of 1881 to marry Fredrick Wesel from Rodelhauer, Prussia (born February 1852).
I believe Agnes' parents were Peter Schilson and Ca.... Nikmauer, but I have not been able to find anything else.
My father has leukemia, and we have been researching his family together. I would appreciate any help you could give me.
Thank you,
Susan Ryan
