Hello!!! I am very glad to hear of someone interested in our Schiernbeck history. I'm also doubly glad to hear from Leonard's descendant as I have nothing on his family.
This is how we are connected:
Leonard Schiernbeck is the son of Herman & Susie (Hansen) Schiernbeck of Schleswig. Herman was the son of Wilhelm H. and Emma (Kock) Schiernbeck.Wilhelm was also the father of Tena Schiernbeck Miller. Tena was the mother of my grandfather, Fred Miller.
Our grandfathers were first cousins! You and I are both GG grandchildren of Wilhelm & Emma Schiernbeck! Direct hit!!!
Will be glad to share more with you off list. The Schiernbeck family is full of mysteries and brick walls in my research. I have not yet found a connection between our Schiernbecks (of Otter Creek Township and Schleswig, Crawford County, Iowa) and the Schiernbeck family of Ida Grove, though I believe there must be one somewhere. In fact I came to the Ida Board today, because of letter from someone else looking for info. I was hoping to find some new information. And I found you!! Not exactly the right direction in the history, but I'm very excited just the same.
I hope to hear from you again soon!
