Anna Warkentin Bell, born in 1802 at Hoppenrade, was Carol's 3rd great grandmother.
Anna married Johann Bell in Luedershagen in 1822 and had 6 children. Daughter,
Friedricke Bell (not the Friedricke Bell above) married Carl Lehmann in 1848 in Guestrow.
Carl died in 1877 and Friedricke Bell Lehmann came later on the ship Leipzig in 1882.
Marie Bell Sievert was the sister of Friedricke Bell Lehmann.
Strangely enough my (Frederick Kruse) Kruse ancestors were on this same ship only a few
pages over. Apparently they did not know each other but there maybe some relationships
that may be yet to be proven. One of my Kruse's on this ship married a Charles Lehmann
also on this ship. This Lehmann was from Perniek, Mecklenburg-Schwerin. These Lehmanns
have ancestors into Klein Uphal which is near Guestrow and Boldebuck.
