Our family story is there were four brothers, three left Germany possibly to escape the Prussian war. The fourth was to small to travel and stayed behind. May be from
Bad Rappenau, Germany. The 1st son Charles served in Gemany and contacted children of the unknown 4th son in 1950's. Who are the other 3 brothers?
