Member Since: June 2006 Posts: 1 Send Message	Am new to researching the family tree and am looking at the German side of my ancestory. My Great grandfather is Wilhelm Freidrich Carl Schmidt born in Lepahn Nr. Preetz/Holst, Germany on 22/01/1893 married to Hella Magda Fahning born 08/08/1898 in Hamburg, Germany. Can anyone assist in the next step back? Or where I need to look to find out more? Many thanks!
