Marie Dorothea Elisabeth Bunke was born Altenweddingen, Magdeburg, Prussia, Germany to G.Christian Bunke and Margarethe Elisabeth Muller. Her birth record in Germany records her birthdate as September 1836. She married Christian Schulle in 1858.

During the 2008 search for birth records from Germany, it was discovered that FOURTEEN (14) children were born in Germany to Christian Frederich Schulle and Dorothea Bunke: Heinrich Andreas 1860, *Frederich Christian 1861, Christian 1862, Friederike 1862, *Carl 1864, *Frederick 1865, *Marie 1868, Fredrich Fritz 1869, Marie Mary 1871, Minna Louise 1873, Gustav Albert 1873, Anna Marie 1876, Wilhelm Christian 1878, and Emma born 1880. Christian Schulle was shown as a passenger on the "America" landing in New York May 12, 1884. Often the family was not listed, only the head of the household, as was in this case. A known fact is that four of the children had already arrived in America, so that must mean that Christian, Sr. and Dorothea arrived with their six younger children. After arriving in Galveston, they completed the trip to New Braunfels, Texas, by ox drawn wagons with their children and the family possessions. Later, they were known to migrate to Maxwell, Texas.

Some of the story of their life is reflected in the profile of her husband Christian.
