Dear Christian,
sorry to address you in the English instead of the German language. Feel free to respond in German.
I am Hugo von Meijenfeldt from Bilthoven, the Netherlands. Our family names are comparable, almost equal. There a more people with your family name in Germany. My ancestors come from Stralsund, Pommern and before 1800 their name was also Meyerfeldt. My question to you is: do you yourself or perhaps a relative know anything about your family history? I would like to compare and perhaps find a link. I created a website www.meijenfeldt.nl, in the Dutch language I’m afraid.
Thank you in advance,
Hugo G. von Meijenfeldt

Dear Hugo,
Your e-mail reached me via facebook. Unfortunately I have to be very busy this time, but I would like to let you have a confirmation of receiving your mail at least. I do not know, if there is someone with pretty good acknowledgement in family history. I myself did some investigations in 1993 because of an 100th anniversary in business establishment.
It was a very interesting experience, my brother has the results from that time now. By the way, our ancestors came from Pommern too, even Stralsund was mentioned. From generation to generation they moved westbound, reaching Hamburg at the end of 19th century.
The branch grew here, especially in the last 10 years there are raising more and more Meyerfeldts in the telephone books of the Hamburg region. I do not know anyone of them except my brother.
So far for now, maybe more some weeks ahead.
Best regards
