I had this but as you can see there were a few holes. Louis Ludwig, born in Germany, came to the USA at the age of 32 with his brother. His brother did not like this country and returned to Germany. Leaving Louis Ludwig to the the only Linnenkohl in America. He was a shoemaker by trade. He came to Georgia and settled at Penfield in Greene County. There he met and married Nancy Susan Kennedy, They married in 1853. Louis Ludwig is buried at County Line Baptist Church Cemetery, near Philomath, Ga. in Oglethrope Co. His grave is at the old Church site approx. 1/4 mile off the main road and present church, down in the woods. Nancy Susan is buried at Salem Baptist Church Cenetery in the Southern part of Lincoln Co. Ga. Info taken from headstones in 1982. I did not know about the reunion in Lincolnton. I was born, November 1, 28, in Lincoln County in the community of Woodlawn. Grady Linnenkohl died a April 15, 2001--he lived close to me in a community of Haddock,Ga. His son William (Billy) lives not too far from me in Bibb County, Ga. I will back in touch as soon as I have time to do a little on my Family tree--seems like the older I get the more I am involved in things.
