Hallo Anja,
Je hebt al veel informatie over Frans (Frank) en Heitje (Hilda) [van Ree] Ehlers en hun kinderen. Daar valt niet veel aan toe te voegen. Wellicht kun je de persoon waarvan je de gegevens hebt gekregen, vragen of hij/zij aanvullende gegevens heeft. De gegevens zitten in een periode waarin niet alle Staten de gegevens online beschikbaar stellen (privacy).
Iets over de informatie... Frank verlaat school 'met de 8e graad' en Hilda 'met de 10e graad'. In Amerika zijn dat klassen, the 8th grade is de laatste klas voor het middelbaar onderwijs (High School), the 10th grade is het tweede jaar van High School.

Dat John is overleden in Brazilië, moet je snel verwijderen, ik dacht misschien aan een plaats of county in Amerika, maar zelfs dat is niet zo.
In het overlijdensbericht van John staan zijn kinderen vermeld. Als de achternaam niet Ehlers is, dan is het de achternaam van de echtgenoot. Bij de zonen staat tussen haakjes de voornaam van hun echtgenotes vermeld.
Ik kijk of ik nog wat andere gegevens kan vinden maar je hebt al meer dan menigeen ooit hoopt te kunnen vinden.
Met vriendelijke groet,
