I need some help in finding information about an illusive German ancestor of mine. His name was Henry Luthso and was born in Mecklenburg,Germany between 1826 and 1828. I know that he immigrated to the united states before 1858 and married Genevieva Geschwinder sometime before then because their son was born in February of 1859 in Buffalo, NY. He enlisted in the civil war twice and was injured several times. After that he just disappears. Ive never been able to find what happened to him after the civil war. I suspect he survived and just left his family, but ive seen city directories of his wife listed as a widow in the early 1870's so Im not sure.
