Classification: Query
Surnames: Langer/Lange/ Plewnia/ Kuhlmann' Brand
Orphan-- We don't know for sure if his birth name was Lange/ Langer or if that was the name of the people who adopted him. We think it was the adopted name. Maxwell Langer was born 1890 in Leipzig Germany. He died in 1963 in Monmouth County New Jersey.
He told us his name was Maxwell Langer he changed it to Fred Lange when he came to USA because people called him "Fritz" on the boat.
His marriage certificate from NY shows the Following:

Max Fred Lange
Born in: Leipzig, Sachsen
Son of: Joseph Lange and Anna gab Plewnia

Freida Wilhelmine Kuhlmann
Born in: Verden Hanover
Daughter of: Henirick(?) Friedrich Kuhlmann and Meta Margaretha gab Brand

on 14th Feb 1915.

Witnesses: (?)
Frieda Glenewinkel and Ernest Bohn

Were there any orphanages in Leipzig?
Does anyone recognize these names?
