Surnames: Burkhiser Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ImG.2ACIB/3 Message Board Post: I found Charles V. Burkhiser on the census (b. March 1877) in 1900 he was a seminary student in Davenport, Iowa. 1910 he was listed as clergy in Council Bluffs and in 1920 lised as a priest in Defiance, Shelby Co., Iowa. His brother, John E. also became a priest and was living in Harlan, Shelby County, Iowa in 1920. I think both are buried in St. Mary's Cemetery, Hamburg, Iowa. On the 1870 census, John & Mary (Idleman) Burkhiser also had a son named Sylvester, born 1869, and they were living in Putnam County, Missouri. Ernest L. Burkhiser lived with his parents, but in 1920 was living with Mary & John HIlger & family; I could not make out if he was single yet or had been married. Hope this is helpful.
