  • Notes 
    • Some researchers show that Kornelius Tetzlaff was the son of Johann (son of Jakob) Tetzlaff of Tarutino, Bess., but our research has not found a link between these two families and the ages would fit better as the brother of John's father, Jakob Tetzlaff. We found that Kornelius was part of the Tetzlaff family in Jakobsonsthal and later of Bortscheag exactly the same move as our Ohlhausen family. In Jakobsonsthal there was a Peter Tetzlaff and also a Jakob & Johann, but they are of a different generation fomr the Tarutino Tetzlaff family. The Bortscheag Church Books have many entries for the Tezlaff family.
      However, his daughter Louise married Wilhelm Ohlhausen, who emigrated to Canada and a family story is they first went to North Dakota before emigrating to Canada and we know that John Tetzlaff's son 'Jakob' emigrated from Tarutino to North Dakota in 1894, where it appears his family stayed.

      Note: there was a Tetzlaff family - Jacob Tetzlaff b. 1771 in Prussia and son John b. 1812 in Poland who took over farm #96 in 1819, in Tarutino, Bessarabia. Between 1883 and 1907, five of John's sons emigrated; 2 to N. Cuacasus, 2 to other towns in Bessarabia and 1 to North Dakota USA. To date we have not found a link from our family to this one as our family was further east and followed the Ohlhausen trail in Bessarabia.; W1, page 4+5, W1, page 4,5.
