On her death card, her name is "Augusta Jastramen." Slight spelling issue, but no big deal so far...Her father's last name is given as "Schultz" on her death card. Also, no big deal as her mother's last name is given as Schuldt on her birth certificate and we know that Auguste had a half brother with the last name of Schultz. Schuldt and Schultz are close enough that they could be the same name (or maybe at some point her mother married someone of the name Schultz).
The mystery comes from the names of her mother given on her death card and the maiden name given for the death certificate of her daughter, Sophie. On her death card, the name of Auguste's mother is given as "Katherine" (looks like it's listed as a first name). On the death certificate of Auguste's daughter, Sophie (Jastram) Klingberg, Sophie's mother's name is given as Auguste Kättelhohn. What is up with that!? Did Amalie Schuldt marry someone named Kättelhohn? Is Katherine and mis-spelling/misinterpretation of Kättelhohn? Where the heck did this Kättelhohn name come from? Did Amalie (Auguste's mother) have a relationship and/or marriage with 3 different men (Rohloff, Schultz, and Kättelhohn)?
