My earliest know ancestor was Folkert Frerichs, who according to "Ortsippenabuch, Reepsholt", was Arbeiter (farmer?) in Horsten. His son, Klaas Carls Frerichs, was born in Schneider in 1800 and died in
Wiesederfehn, 1857. Most of Klaas' family came to the United States
right after Klaas died. Can anyone guide me on how I might find
information on family that may have chosen not to immigrate and may
have choosen to remain in Germany? I understand the area is referred to
as Ost.friesland and located at the Northern part of the country next to
the North sea?
If you are still available, I would like to communicate with you. Linda Frerichs
