Hi, Glen, Am interested in the Stolz family. My gg-grandmother may have been a Stoltz. She came to the US with her husband and family in 1852 on the ship Leonidas. Curious if you know the ship the Stolz family came over on? Her name is Anna Marie Socin, or possibly Stolz married to Johan Martin Mueller/Miller. They came from Switzerland but Anna was from Germany, possibly the Wurttemberg area. Appreciate any help.

A couple questions if you don't mind. I found the Philip Stolz that immigrated in 1852, but how do you know that he immigrated with the whole family? When I look at the individual entry it says under comments "mit der Familie". I do not speak or read German but I assume this says something to the effect with his family. Where can I see who that family was? Also the other site you mentioned while I am sure would be interesting and helpful appears to be only in German. I really appreciate your kind help and any other information you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

A Philipp Stolz emigrated in 1852 with the whole family to America. The family is from Teutschneureut, which is now a suburb of Karlsruhe/Baden . Take a look: www.auswanderer-bw.de On the right click "English" Then on left: "Search for emigrants" Klick "Standard" "Last name" just type : Stolz, nothing else And then klick "Search data" You also can take a look at www.karlsruhe.de. Klick on the left "Stadt and Tourismus", there you klick "Stadtteile", then klick "Neureut". There were two villages north of Karlsruhe, one was Welschneureut and the other Teutschneureut, in 1935 they were combined and then named just Neureut. In 1972 Neureut was incorporated into the city of Karlsruhe. You lucky, you. Have a nice Sunday. Greetings from Stuttgart/Germany Erika -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: baden-wurttemberg-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:baden-wurttemberg-bounces@rootsweb.com] Im Auftrag von Glen Frederick Gesendet: Sonntag, 28. September 2008 09:48 An: BADEN-WURTTEMBERG@rootsweb.com Betreff: [BW] Inquiry I am researching the Stolz name from Baden. Philip Jacob Stolz was born there 7 Jun 1838. His father, also Philip Jacob Stolz was born approximately 1811. The son immigrated about 1852 and settled in Stevenson CO. IL. The father may have immigrated at that time also. I do not find the family in the census until 1880 in Seward CO. NE. They had moved there about 1874. I don't know why they cannot be found in the 1850, 1860 or 1870 census. Are there searchable church records for the Baden area? Any information you can give me about this family in Baden or in the early years in Illinois would be greatly appreciated.
