Wilhelm Hünefeld's date of birth is entered *06.05.1806, Knecht [May 6, 1806, Servant], on p. 20 of Auswanderer der Gemeinde Ladbergen 1830-1930. Because of conflicting information in Ladbergen records located by genealogist John Clausing, it is respectfully suggested that the Huenefeld baby born 6 May 1806 died one week later on the 13th of May. It’s possible that the following entry refers to the Huenefeld of this memorial; Joh Herm Huenefeld - Hünefeld born 20 Sep 1805, baptized on 27 Sep 1805, the son of Johan Herm Hünefeld, a heuerling in Holter. His mother was Anne Elsab. König. The baptismal sponsors were colonus Johan Wilm Fleddermann of Holter, colonus Johan Wilm Kruse zu Holter, and colona Anne Elsab. Berlemann geb. Dickerman zu Webster. Huenefeld family researchers of the future will need to confirm the correct birth date.
