Greetings List I am still searching for Heinrich Wilhelm Otto (born abt. 1785) in the 1798 Census. On the AHSGR site I find that there were Otto families in the following villages in 1798: Dreispitz, Hussenbach, Kaneau, Rosenheim and Stahl am Karaman. If any of you have the 1798 Census for these villages, I would really appreciate a look-up. On the First Settler's List for Bangert, there is a Konrad Otto, age 22, Lutheran farmer from Naussau-Usingen, Mittelhausen - wife Katharina Elisabeth, 22. Konrad Otto and Katharina Elisabeth Laut were married 17 Jul 1776 in Lubeck and arrived in Bangert on 1 Jul 1767. This couple is not in Bangert on the 1798 Census, but by the 1816/34 Census, the Heinrich Wilhelm Otto family is in Bangert with a son and grandson named Konrad. (They were not in Bangert in 1798) I am thinking that this is perhaps the link to our family, but need to find them in 1798. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Linda Linda Otto Gladstone, MB

Linda: The AHSGR FSL says there were people with the Otto surname in Bangert, Boaro, Kano, Neidermonjou & Warenburg in 1798. There were none in Druespitz that I see. Some also used the surname Ott, and were in Brabander, Galka and Norka in 1798. However, looking in my Galka database, there was no Heinrich Wilhelm Ott/Otto in Galka. Brabander is across the river in the Kukkus District, and Bradander and Warenburg are nearby and likely places where these people may have been living: http://webbitt.com/volga/map-berg.html Gary Martens Dobrinka, Neu-Weimar, Galka, & Schilling villages VC > > Greetings List > I am still searching for Heinrich Wilhelm Otto (born abt. 1785) in the 1798 Census.
