Welcome!
This tree is a frozen snapshot of my Chicago Civil War Staack/Staak tree on Ancestry. All living people are without names or other information, but you may be able to find yourself. However, I have not tried to capture all the living members, so that many people are not in the tree, in which case you will need to find one of your parents or grandparents.
This version’s snapshot was download from Ancestry 23 Jun 2015 and has 62 people in 17 families.
I do not know if I am related to these Staacks. My own Staacks came to Chicago after the Civil War. Both the ones in this tree and mine came from Mecklenburgy-Pommern. So they may be related. Even if they are not, I need to keep the records straight as to which Chicago Staa(c)k records are which, so that this tree is necessary to my research either way.
For those who have an Ancestry account, Wilhelm/William J. Staack (1847-1937) is at http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/14388235/person/99532862 and you can click on that to see him and then navigate to anyone else within the tree.
