Johann "Fred" Friedrich
Wilhelm LAEDTKE (1881-1965)
& the "apple of
his eye" his bride,
Emma Wilhelmine Elisabeth
BLAESE (1894-1958).
Both were born in Shawano County
to German Families from the Pommern & Kreis Cammin areas of Germany.
They were married for 48 years and were the proud parents of 8
children, 5 daughters: Esther, Hilda, Ida, Amanda & Dorothy and 3 sons:
Alfred, Fred and Robert. Their families from Germany settled in
Hartland Township and the Town of Washington/Cecil areas of the county.
I am looking for ANY
PHOTO COPIES of the BLAESE - LAEDTKE families. After my mother
passed away, we realized we did not have many pictures of her family.
Other researchers from the Shawano site have shared some of their photos and
they are greatly appreciated. Fred Laedtke's parents were E. W.
LAEDTKE (1832 - 1896) & Louisa (nee STOCK) LAEDTKE (1846 - 1929) and Emma's
parents were Carl BLAESE (1855 - 1945) and Henrietta (nee KRAUSE) BLAESE
(1859 - 1921). I'm hoping to locate 1 photo of each to put in my book.
Family lines also include Bartelt, Hinkfuss, Noffke, Horn, Bublitz and
Spohn. Thanks in advance!
Now, on to the GOOD STUFF! |
