8. William Addams Reitwiesner, compilier. Ancestry of Barack Obama. I had done the genealogy of this line from Louise Eliza STROUP back to her ancestor, Martin STRAUB, of Württemberg, before finding this genealogy by Reitwiener. I mention this to point out that two different genealogists arrived independently at the same result.
