I am researching GEORG JOHN PRATZ born 17 Sept 1859 Honhardt Germany. I would like to know more about his bothers or sisters. He came to America in 1884 and settled in Kansas later moved to Oklahoma. Parents were JACOB PRATZ and DOROTHA STEGMIER, both born in Germany.

I found Georg listed on ancestry, Passenger & Immagration list index, 1500s-18900s, concerning the history of emigration from the county of Crailsheim. He was listed Emigration 1883 Honhardt, (Steinbach). Listed with him, having the same information was FREDRICH PRATZ, possibly his brother.

His Declaration of Intent dated 1 Mar 1886. He married 17 Sept 1886 in Clay Center, Kansas USA, to BARBARA GEHRING, born Wurttemberg, Germany 31 Oct 1856.

My LDS library will be closed a year due to reconstruction so I can't order any film. Any suggestions on what church and the address to write to in Steinbach,on the Jagst River, Germany for family records.
