Hello,
I've been having trouble finding records regarding an ancestor of mine. She was born Ernestina Sophia Winterstein to Andreas Winterstein and Christiana Balzer (supposedly from Cottbus or Berlin) . According to Ernestina's marriage record, she was born August 9, 1815 in Bad Berneck. She had at least 4 illegitimate children, before marrying Johann Heinrich Specht in Selb on June 20, 1858. Her husband Heinrich died March 10, 1897. I can't find any record of Sophia dying before that, and I can't any record of her after that.
I'm searching for records to prove her date of birth, and hopefully date of death. I'd like to know a bit more about her father as well. Any help will be much appreciated. There is a chance she came to the United States and was with her grandchildren near Cincinnati, Ohio, at one point, but that is unsafe.
I will attach her FamilySearch Page. You can find more information connected to her on there.
Thanks!
