Thank you Christopher,

My maternal grandfather was Catholic and we think his predecessors came from
Oldenburg, but no one could find his name listed in any of the records from
there (Holthinrichs).  Someone said that they might have come from the
Netherlands, but I was not able to find that name there either, only Holt
which my grandfather shortened his name to this after the 1920s sometime.

The other "Grosvater" was named Stiers, and they were Protestant.  This
evidently caused some friction between the two families, and I have been
trying (without success) to trace the four Stiers brothers (all born in
Cincy) that my grandmother had.
