Hello

Im looking for as much help as possible on researching WIlhelm Massmann.

All i know about him is he was roughly born 1859 in Duisburg Germany and worked as the Director of the Imperial Bank Berlin. He also had a son called Heinrich Ernest Massman 1882-1951 whom we have got quite a bit of info about but it was Wilhelm Massman and his parents that we would really love to know more about.

Does anyone know how i can go about this? Have tried Ancestry Worldwide but no luck.

There is a Facebook group called Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness, there are a few German people on there who may be willing to help, there's no harm in putting a post on their wall asking for information.
