I'm afraid I don't know my Germany geography enough to know if Undenheim is in Prussia? Caspar was buried in St. Boniface Cemetery in Marshan township, Dakota County, MN. His birth date was 13 May 1838 and death date was 09 Nov 1914. He was married to Elizabeth Truex. He and Elizabeth immigrated in 1844. Nicholas Schilling was born in 1840. Both brothers were stone masons. Nicholas moved around more, to Iowa, to Calhoun County, IL, and I believe to St. Louis, where he may have died. His wife, Elizabeth (perhaps Karp), lived in St. Louis until her death in 1921. Nicholas is my paternal great great grandfather and my trail stops with him, so if anyone has any hints for me, I am really eager to find anything else about him.
