About This Site
Introduction & F.A.Q.
Are we researching the same people or places?
The site documents the genealogy of two Kreis Greifenberg families: The Johann BENZ / Sophie PAGENKOPF family of Gützlaffshagen and the August HOGE / Wilhelmine SCHEER family of Lewetzow. Both families immigrated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1872 and 1865 respectively.

Children of these two families went on to become great grandparents of my own children on their mother's side.

The links at left will lead you to a surname index of 114 people included in these families, a places directory with maps and photos of their Kreis Greifenberg villages, a pedigree chart of the direct ancestors, and other information.

Enjoy! And please let me know if we have a family connection.
