Hi,

I am searching for information on Julius Geercke who was born about 1844 in
Schleswig-Holstein when it was part of Denmark. His fathers name was Jochim
who was married to Margaret 'Matinke' (??). He was possibly a Danish count.
Julius's brothers were Augustus born about 1824, John born about 1829 and
Henry born about 1847. I think they were all born in Uetersen. It seems as
if all four brothers moved to Scotland as their names all appear in the 1881
census of Greenock, Lanarkshire.

Can anyone advise me how to obtain a birth certificate for Julius and birth,
marriage and death certificates for his father Jochim.
