Klaus Bung thinks that some of the information that is missing here (e.g. the short Faßbender line) can still be traced.  Hubertus Bung did presumably as much as he could and as much as was necessary to produce a "clean" ancestry, and not much more.  The reason why the Hantelmann line is so well represented may be the existence of a spinster grand-aunt (or so), called "Tante Hertha" (Rosendahl) (a very learned spinster, with a pointed nose and glasses, very strict, lover of books, but fond of Klaus Bung, saved money by writing no letters but only postcards and doubling their capacity by writing first horizonally on them with black ink and vertically across all that in green ink), who was presumably a Hantelmann, and spent her life in researching the Hantelmann family.  There is a whole family archive in existence (Hantelmann family).  Klaus Bung is now (2000) trying to find out who has inherited it and will, if it is manageable, try to photocopy it all.  If Hubertus Bung drew on this Hantelmann archive but did not take too much trouble over the other lines, this would explain why the Hantelmanns are so much better documented than, for example, the Faßbenders.  The person to contact, in the first place, is Maila Hantelmann.

Ina Sinclair supplied the following information from memory.  This also links with some names occurring as loose ends elsewhere in this chronicle (search for them electronicall!):

Tante Herta Rosendahl was Paula Faßbender's (née Hantelmann) niece, the daughter of her elder (the eldest of the nine children) sister Hella (Tante Hella).  Tante Herta was not a spinster, but married to somebody called Rosendahl (am not sure of the spelling); I have never met her husband; they did not have children.

There must be a whole pile of Hantelmänner (Hantelmanns) in Bremen, if anybody wants to research further: the Hantelmann in Bremen was called Kurt Hantelmann, a nephew of Paula Faßbender. He was blinded, I think, during the Second World War and had a number of children.

Heimfried Hantelmann's father Kurt Hantelmann lived in Glücksburg (?) near Kiel in North Germany.  Georg Hantelmann and his wife Gertrud Hantelmann lived in Essen (Ruhr) and had a daughter. (??? how is George Hantelmann related to the people mentioned so far?  say to Muetter???)

Else Hantelmann and her husband Hans Strutz lived in Bochum. Their daughter was Gisela Strutz with whom Britta Horz is still in close and regular contact.  Gisela Strutz never married, is a high-caliber translator / interpreter and (is or was) head of the translations/interpretations department of some big industrial company in Essen.

Then there was Gerda Pröller (oder ist "oe" richtig?) in Korschenbroich (in the Cologne region), who I think was the daughter of Tante Hella (nachname???), née Hantelmann, and Onkel Felix Hantelmann ???, but I do not know where they lived.

Somewhere in or around Nuremberg (Nürnberg) was Emmy Naumann, or so, also a sister of Paula Faßbender. There was a Fritz Hantelmann who was killed during the First World War, I think. And there was one other brother whose name I cannot remember.

Gisela Strutz, who lives in Essen (Britta Horz has her address) should be a mine of information.

??? KB phone her and get her address
