Hi Sandy here is a list of all uncles and aunts from August Linn which immigrate to the US. Johann Linn, (Uncle) Georg Linn (Uncle he stayed with him when August arrived in USA) Wilhelmine Linn, (Aunt), Magdalena Linn (Aunt) Georg Linn had a son called Kenny and Johann Linn (John) had a son called Karl (Carl) there were no more informations about them available from here. I think you probably can forget about the girls, because when they get married you will loose the trace anyway. Gruß Günter
