Surnames: ADRIAN, ACKERMAN, KIRSCHBAUM Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/mJ.2ADEB/103.1 Message Board Post: My records show that Adelheidt, wife of Simon Ackerman (1835-1913) surname was KIRSCHBAUM and not Adrian. My records show her to be the daughter of Reinhardt Kirschbaum and wife Catharina Mueller/Anna Catharine Mueller. She was born at Echum, Germany. They were the parents of 7 known children: Reiner b. 1859; John b. 1861, married Lina Woodington; Casper b. 1870, married Otillia Goetterz; Joseph b. 1866; Nicholas b. 1878, married Ella Turner; Elizabeth b. 1873, married/1 Mike Schmelz, m/2 Frank Unterscheidt; Katharine married Henry Koppen. Hope this helps. Helen
