Anyone connected to Johann Rattinger, born Germany abt 1897.
He was the son of Georges Rattinger and Marie nee Metzger.
Other German born children were Barbara and Dorothy.
The family moved to Dennistoun, Glasgow about 1899 and both Georges and Johann were butchers to trade.
Johann changed his name to John Brown and in 1922 at Dennistoun he married Agnes Drynan, the daughter of David and Alice Drynan (nee Lawrie). He was then resident at Duke Street, Glasgow and she at Stephen Drive, Glasgow.
I am interested in any descent lne from John and Agnes Brown.

Have you looked at the probate calendar on genes to see if anyone left a will.. as this often mentions other family members and how everyone is connected
