Marcus, I'm Dave Ohlhaut, father of Steve Ohlhaut - -  the guy that first 
tracked you down.  Just like to say it'd be good to hear back from you, 
briefly if necessary, on whether or not we're related in the not too distant past.

A quick rundown of our lineage:
 only known-to-us Ohlhaut males in USA:  me, 42, my brother Marty, 45, my  
brother Dan, 30;  plus my 9 sons and Marty's 1 son and Dan's possible son
 in utero and possible future sons in utero (and then who knows?  even more
 possible future sons on top of those, and so on)
Note:  before my brothers and I came along, my father was the only known-to-us
 Ohlhaut in America
 
 my father - Harry R Ohlhaut, 1921 - present, resident of state of Indiana, 
USA

 my grandfather - Harry M Ohlhaut, 1894 - 1978 (piano and organ player, and   
piano tuner by trade), residence was Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

 my great grandfather - Martin Ohlhaut, ? - 1903 (piano player by trade) 
Martin emigrated from Germany to Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

Martin Ohlhaut is as far back, I believe, that I can trace.  I could possibly
provide you with an area of Germany from which he hailed with a little more
probing.  Meanwhile, if you could reply with a brief synopsis of your Ohlhaut 
lineage, that would be greatly appreciated.  

Regards, 

Dave Ohlhaut

Hi Marcus,      
        
Thank you for responding to my letter.  I understand what being very busy 
is like.  I am hopeful that we will be able to remain in communication 
for some time.  

I will give you some short background.  

My grandfather was the last Ohlhaut male in this country.  He had a twin 
brother who died in World War II.  He only knew that his grandfather came 
from Germany, but not much else.  Since 1925 or so, Ohlhauts have been 
going to Germany to search out a family history with no success.  

Well, my grandfather has three sons--Andrew, David and Daniel and of his 
grandchildren, 18 are Ohlhauts.  I am the first of the 18 with the 
Ohlhaut name.

Maybe this will prove of some interest to you.  I hope to learn more of 
your family background to see if and where we are linked.

Thanks a lot,

Steve
