You are contacting the submitter of the query: August W. Quedeweit b.16Aug1860 in Tilsit, East Prussia, Germany (from his OH Death Certificate). He immigrated to Dayton, Montgomery Co., OH, married Johana Balzer, and died there leaving apparently the only Quedeweit family in the USA. Are there currently Quedeweit or similar spelling in the Sovetsk area? Do others in the world who’s ancestors did not live in Dayton, OH, USA share the name? The name appears to be unusual and almost unique to the Tilsit area.
More on the families can be seen at

(or enter one of the names referred to) and look for edclgenealogy1 on the right
Also, from this earlier posting of mine a profesional German Researcher familiar with Tilsit records contacted me. If a descendant of the Quedeweit family wants to have for hire work done in German Archives, I have saved his e-mail and can put you in contact. I have no financial interest in this whatsoever. Your personal information will only be used to contact the submitter and will not be saved or used for any other purpose.
