Heinrich Ellwein married Dorothea Kilber, daughter of Jacob Kilber and Christina Guenthner. They had: Jacob, Hilda, Emil, Heinrich, Otto and Artur. When Jacob was 9 years old, and Artur just born--or maybe yet to be born--Heinrich died. That was about 1914. The letters she sent to her sister, Barbara Kilber Eisenbraun were dated 11 Mar 1928, and 6 Dec 1929. She was living at Neu Bajaut, Crimea. The 1929 letter gave an address of USSR Crimea St. Suetler, Village BOCYAEYAOT. Deliver to Dorotea Ya. Glveets(?). She was begging for passage to America. I have posted a photograph of Dorothea and Heinrich, with baby Jacob on the Facebook page. If anyone has ties to this family, I'd like very much to exchange information or ideas.
