Alo, Fred. Nós aqui no Brasil gostaríamos de receber informações sobre as famílias Steindorf e Schlichting, que emigraram da Alemanha no começo do século. Nós não sabemos como iniciar a procura, se puder nos ajudar, ficaremos agradecidos. Um abraço.

Fred, Here's a rough translation: Hello, Fred, We here in Brazil would like to receive information about the Steindorf and Schlichting families, who emigrated from Germany at the turn of the century. We don't know how to begin the process. We would be grateful if you could help us. A hug, Lauro Schlichting Júnior Alice Hilda Steindorf I don't know Portuguese per se but was able to do this through my knowledge of Spanish. David F.
