Person:Charles Prange (1)

It was originally assumed that CHARLES was born in Indiana, but if his parents were married in Schaumburg-Lippe, then Charles must have been born there also.

Having documentation of Charles' birth in Schaumburg-Lippe, also means that Emma Lower's story of her mother (Sophia) accompanying her unwed sister (Christiana) on the journey to America cannot be correct!
