Lost family member: Oswald Kleiner from Germany
« on: Sunday 13 September 15 04:27 BST (UK) »
RootsChat has always been so helpful so here goes again.  My great-grandparents, Gustav and Clara Kleiner, lived in Breslau, Germany before WW II.  They had eight sons born between the years of 1888 to 1903, and by 1926 all members of the Kleiner family had immigrated to the U.S., except the seventh son, who remained in Germany.   I am looking for information about this lost family member.
His name was Oswald Reinhold Franz Kleiner and he was born on December 8, 1900 in Brockau, Breslau, Germany.  His parents were Gustav Reinhold Kleiner (1864-1940) and Clara Charlotte Weihrauch Kleiner (1867-1941), and both died in the U.S.  Oswald died on August 4, 1956 in Flensburg, Schleswig-Holstein Germany.  How can I find out if he was married and to whom, if he had children and perhaps where he was buried?  Is this type of information available in Germany? Any information or guidance would be greatly appreciated.  Bev
