                   NOTES:
    From a letter dated 30 April 1991 from Wilhelm: "The name Mahlmann is also mother's name. Actually the Mahlmanns should be called Hueholt. As the war against France took place in 1871, my father (before he was married) was already there. As my grandfather returned from the war, he changed his name from Hueholt to Mahlmann. That's where Mahlmann came from." Wilhelm also said there were 11 Mahlmann children.
