I am trying to find additional information about Mary Eggert Fink (1840-1925), who is listed on the Downers Grove and Lisle Township Cemetery Index, DuPage County, IL. Where was she born? Who were her parents? When and where did she get married? To whom? Did she remarry at any time? Any progeny? Where is/are her husband(s) buried? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. --Don Berry, Bay St. Louis, MS.

Hi Pete, My Fink line originated in Switzerland and my grandfather Hermann Fink came to America in 1900. He settled in Trenton NJ. If you come across Trenton Finks, please let me know and I'll do the same for your area of NJ.Thanks Lori Fink
Hi Lori, Thanks for your response. Our Finks were in the areas of Kearny (Hudson County), High Bridge (Hunterdon County) and Newark.

I'm told the Fink family I am researching is from Germany. I am doing the research for my step daughter. Albert and Rudolf Fink came to the US around 1820. Albert became an engineer and worked for many railroads across the country. He designed railroad bridges. There is only one example of his work left. It is in Zoarville OH. I don't have any information about Rudolf. My stepdaughter's father tells me he is descended from Albert. There is one peculiarity that makes this family easy to search. All the boys in both lines were named Albert or Rudolf without a middle name. My stepdaughter's g-grandfather, Albert Fink, was one of Al Capone's lawyers during his tax evasion trial in San Francisco. Before that he plied his lawyer trade in Alaska. He was born in The Philippines. He married Laura Meigs. Their son Rudolf Fink was born 24 Jan 1905 in Nome Alaska and died 21 Aug 1980 in Biloxi MS. He married Martha Hickam, daughter of Horace Hickam and Helen Bamber. Horace was commanding officer of a training squadron in Galveston TX. On 5 Nov 1934, while landing his airplane, he flew through smoke coming from a factory and ran into a power line. They had just opened a new airbase at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, so they named it in his honor. All I could get out of my stepdaughter's family is some of the names. I have found all of these other tidbits of data on the web on different websites and from good people on email lists like this one. Gene Phillips
Hi Lori, Thanks for writing! I'm pretty sure that my family was never in NJ. They came from Germany, originally (according to grandma), where the name was Finkelhoff or something like that. Anyway, they ended up in NC, which is as far back as I can get, then moved to TN and TX, and seemed to stay in that area forever. I appreciate you taking the time to write, though! Take care, Natalie
Hi, Seen your posting , my Finks are from Switzerland but I do remember seeing a Lizzie Fink in Trenton NJ somewhere in my online endeavers. If I come across the site I will forward it to you. There was a Hermann ,Lizzie and possibly a Joseph or Albert Fink. Have a great day, Lori Fink
