Most of my lineage is from Germany. My paternal lines are from Schleswig-Holstein and Niedersachen. A maternal great grandfather was from Ostergotland, Sweden. A maternal great grandmother was Swedish, English and Irish.
Another maternal great grandmother was of half Potowatomi descent.
My Reimer family originated in Gut Weissenhaus, an estate on the Northern coast of Schleswig-Holstein in about 1695. About 1830, they emigrated to the Island of Fehmarn in the Baltic Sea where my great grandfather Julius Reimer married Margarethe Radecker in 1870.
Check out the links below created by my cousin John S. Kostick. He is researching all families on the Island of Fehmarn. John has listed our mutual Mackeprang ancestor back to 1450. He has researched all of my Radecker family and listed my Reimer/Radecker Ancestors from my Grandfather, Walter Heinrich Reimers.

The Moody family (originally Skonberg) is from Mjolby, Ostergotland, Sweden. The Rief/Reiff family came from the Brauwieler/Koeln area of Rheinland, Germany. I published a Family History for the these two families in 1992.
