The subject is my gggg grandmother, who married my gggg grandfather, Franz Christian WADSACK / WEIZACHER in 1777 in Germany; quite possibly in the Gottingen area. Franz was born on February 7, 1757 in Oberwiederstedt and died July 28, 1818 in Kutzleben, Germany. Christian was an extremely wealthy merchant / foreign trader / exporter. One of Franz' brothers also married a HENCKE bride.

Franz' brother, Johann Heinrich WADSACK / WEIZACHER married Dorothea Lisette HENCKE on June 24, 1774. Dorothea was born in Salzderhalden, Germany. The first of their 7 children was born in 1774 in Adelebsen, Germany. Heinrich was a trader / merchant in Bovenden after 1777.

If Sophia and Dorothea are not sisters, they surely are close cousins. Names of their parents are not known; nor are the any dates or locations other than Dorothea's lob. Seeking leads on how to link these possible sisters, including dates, locations, parents, etc., etc.
