Hi,

I know so little. Frederick Burow of Houston, MN was the son of John Burrow (Burow) and Anna Melke. He had at least one sister - Charlotte Burrow (Burow) who married Heinrich Boldt.

Heinrich (Henry) Boldt died quite young, leaving Charlotte with at least 4 children - Herman, Henriette, Karl, and Reinhold.

Herman was trained as a carpenter and worked to support his mother and siblings after his father died. He was passed over at least once for the draft to enable him to continue to support the family. Finally, someone from the draft board came to Charlotte and told her that Herman would need to go to America if he was to continue to support the family as he could no longer be deferred.

Charlotte wrote to her brother Fred Burow who was living in Minnesota. He send the money back to Pomerania for Herman to come to the US. Herman came in 1868 and continued to send money back to support his family. Eventually, he brought all of his siblings to the US. The last to come was Reinhold. Presumably,he came after Charlotte's death.

I have not found the records for the family in Pomerania. I believe they may have been destroyed. The passenger list says that Herman said he was from Parlow. Reinhold told his family he was from Thyne. I recently learned that there was a town in Pomerania called Krolow. It may be that I misread the name on the passenger list. Krolow is much closer to Thyne which was in the county Schlawe. Parlow is not close to Thyne.

That pretty much exhausts my information on the Burow family.

Familysearch.org- Its one of the largest site thru the Latter Day Saints of Jesus Christ (Mormon) - Awesome website!!!

PS By chance do you have anyone in your familytree by the name of Wilhelm Burow born 12/15/1854. For some reason I can't find anything on him- he would be my great-great grandmother.

Louise Burow

PatLeonard500 — 2006-10-18 18:59:35Z

I'm looking for info on Louise Burow(Burrows). She had a son Friedrich Burow b.10-24-1851 d.7-8-1936 in Krahloff,Pommem. Church records for Friedrich's marriage to Wilhelmine Schultz (in WI,USA) 1874, do not list a father for Friedrich(Fred).Friedrich sailed on whaling ships when he was a young man,I believe out of Germany.I don't think Louise came to the USA. Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Kathy, I don't think he's a sibling of my Frederick, but have you connected with Frank Tetzlaff? He knows everything there is to know about Burows in MN and WI, it seems. His e-mail is MarylnT@cox.net. I hope he can help, good luck! Sorry I've been so slow to respond.
