Sohns Genealogy prepared by Laverne B. Krause which gives information on the descendants of Johann Conrad "Wilhelm" Sohns (1815-1899) and his wife Caterin "Henrietta" Nolop (1818-1890). Born and married in Germany, the couple and their 4 sons arrived in the United States on August 5, 1851. They settled in Ozaukee Co., WI, later moving to Milwaukee.
