Background

My Grandfather Leonhard Lewis Von Bieker born in Jun 1858, Hessen Darmstadt, Germany said his father was Houge Von Bieker and his mother Elizabeth Von Nordenflycht. His father being a German General. We found a birth record and it looks like Anna Katherine Von Bieker had 8 illigitimate children, Leonhardt being one of them. So, we are not likely Biekers, but I would like to find out for sure!! He said his father was a German General, and there was a Von Nordenflycht German General in the area at that time.
