I am having trouble finding more information on the family of Ferdinand Christian Ploetz, born 12/18/1854, in Neu Meichow Preussen. He married a Maria Louise Sophie (Goettleman) Ploetz, born 9/1/1859, Tonawanda, NY. The information I am looking for concerns their parents, and older. If you have any information about either of these families please let me know.

Thank you,
Emily M. Ploetz
