I am searching for data on ancestors and siblings of August PONTO born 4 August
1825 (or 1824). He was from Radosiew, (in 1840) near Hammer in Posen at the time
he married (the widow of Johann Gottlieb KRÜGER, Hanna Marie Henriette RACH,
who was born 9 Jun 1818 in Sophienberg, Netzekreis. Her parents were
Martin RACH and Eleonore Ernestine SASSE.

August PONTO and Henriette RACH had the following children:
August Gustav PONTO * 1 May 1852 Buchwerder, Kreis Czarnikau.
Albertine Pauline PONTO * 23 Sep 1854 Buchwerder, Kreis Czarnikau.
Friedrich Wilhelm PONTO * 9 Feb 1857 Hammer, Kreis Czarnikau, + 4 Dec 1862.
Gustav Adolph PONTO (our grandfather) * 17 Jul 1859 Hammer, Kreis Czarnikau
Rudolph Emil PONTO * 8 Jun 1861 Radolin, Kreis Czarnikau.

August and his son August emigrated from Posen in 1872 to America. Henriette,
Albertine, Gustave and Rudolph emigrated from Posen in 1875 to America.

I have not found the birth record of the father, August PONTO of Radosiew.
Any replies from subscribers would be very much appreciated.
