In February 2011 Heero Onnen wrote:

Soviel weiss ich jetzt schon: Christian Wilhelm Steuer war das uneheliche Kind einer Heilcke Cathrine Reimers. Ihre Vorfahren kamen aus Oldenbrok, einem Dorf nahe von Elsfleth. Von dort stammten auch die Eltern von Ahlke Margarete Bruns, der Frau von Christian Wilhelm Steuer. Leider sind die alten Kirchenbücher von Oldenbrok verbrannt und so ist zu diesen Leuten wenig in Erfahrung zu bringen.

As far as I know now: Christian Wilhelm Steuer was the illegitimate child of a Heilcke Cathrine Reimers. Their ancestors came from Oldenbrok, a village close to Elsfleth. The parents of Ahlke Margaret Bruns, wife of Christian Wilhelm Steuer also came from there. Unfortunately, the old church records of Oldenbrok burned and so there is little known about these people.
