Here is a link to the new
(and improved) Bohm family history website.
http://sites.google.com/site/bohmfamilysite/
I hope you have a chance to check it out. Over the next several weeks, I will be adding more content, including some new articles, photographs, and maps. In addition, some of the family history information has been revised in light of some recent research. In particular, we have discovered the village in Germany where Herman Bohm grew up. For me, this is quite exciting as I have been trying to discover its name for many years. Interestingly, the death records of Trinity Lutheran Church in Enderlin, North Dakota, contained some rather detailed information about his birth place--Breitenstein, Kron Deutsch, Kingdom of Prussia. The little village of Breitenstein is no longer a part of Prussia, but is now in Poland (the place changed hands after World War II) and is in the Polish province of West Pomerania. At any rate, I have incorporated this information into the essay on Herman and Ida Bohm and their coming to America at the end of the nineteenth century.
As always, If you have any information to add to what I have done on the website, or if you would like to see some things added, please let me know.
