Hi, my name is Alfred Wenkebach, Jr. I am trying to research my family history. I know that my father was born in Hagen in either May or June 1919. I believe his birth name was Ewald Walter Wenkebach. I believe he changed his name to Alfred later. His father was Gustav Wenkebach and his mother was Hulda Pipenstock (sp.?). Also, a "c" might have come after the "n". If you cannot help me, maybe you can direct me to another church or office that can. I would appreciate any information. Thank you so much, Alfred Wenkebach, Jr.
