     His name was recorded as Karl Christlieb Ristaw on his birth registration.4

Christlieb RISTAU birth 1907, Father: Johann Wilhelm RISTO b: 7 JUL 1862 in Simkau, Germany; Mother: Alivna NEITZELMANN b: 1868. She shows his spouse as a "living" Junop.

In response to my inquiry for more details, she responded: Hi there. I reviewed what I have in my database and Chritlieb (Uncle Christy as he was referred to) was the brother of my ggrandmother Sovena (Sophia Elsa) Ristow (married to Gustav Romhild) Further per Christy - the family oral history indicated he lived in Niagra Falls area and that his wife was indeed Esther Junop. As I had no information on her the name comes up as living in my tree. I have no information further on him or her other than the birth date and it is approximated as 1907 (not sure could be census or obit notice) I had much information by oral history - and some pieced from obits. Tom Carkner also provide information to me (he has a website on Germans in Ottawa and has published a book as well on the issue. He provided me with the parents of my ggrandmother - Unfortunately my books are packed while I repaint and renovate my office at home so I cannot look up my sources at this time.8
