The farthest back I've been able to trace this line is to a Wilhelm von
Bogumil (or Bogomil) born in 1785 and died in 1854. He had three sons
Wilhelm Bogumil born 1806, Waldemar Bogumil date of birth unknown and
Eric Bogumil born in 1805. The sons were born in Weijaken East Prussia.
Does anyone know where Weijaken is on current maps? Wilhelm's son
Michael born in 1850 died in 1925 moved first to Toronto Canada and then
to the U S possibly someplace in Pennsylvania. There also appears to be
variant spellings of Bogumil, sometimes with an o instead of the u. Does
anyone have any idea why the first Wilhelm would be von Bogumil (from
Bogumil?) and the sons just Bogumil. I got this information from an
uncle who died a long time ago's notes. Another relative made copies of
them and gave them to me so I have no way of getting any clarification
first hand. Any information on either of these questions would help a
lot,
Thanks
