Here's what I come up with. In remembrance of the many emigrants from the area of what is now the city of Meerbusch. Between 1835 and 1865, more than 330 people left behind their homes during hard times to settle in the state of Missouri. They settled close to the location of Loose Creek, Westphalia, Frankenstein (County Osage) and St. Thomas. To this day they retain their mother tongue, our native Low German.

I "googled" one of my ancestor names the other night and the Emslanders list came up. I have checked this list some time ago but not recently. I found lots of information on my ancestors - incredible actually. Also, ABELN is there. Someone has been posting this surname and I may also have more of a connection than I thought. www.emslanders.com Question: Are there sites like this for other areas of Germany?? I still have several other surnames that I am researching and could use some clues to figure out the connections. Researching: LEMBECK; MOHRMANN; FUECHTEMANN; ELLERBACH; RALF; BLOMS and others Thank you Peggy N.

I use http://www.googlealert.com/ to keep up with my searches in Google. You use the same search parameters as Google and they email when new information hits the web. It's great tool and best of all - it's free! You do need to register with an account and it can be updated and changed regularly.

Jane: They PROBABLY all had the same "first name." Johann, e.g., Johann Georg, Johann Joseph, Johann Mathias. The common practice was to name all the family males after a patron saint or relative. But they would be known by their "middle names." "John" may have been the oldest and kept that moniker. For example, my g-grnd was Johann Mathias and had brothers Johann Franz and Johann David. He went by Mathias John and his brothers were Franz (later Frank) and David John.

Date: Sat, 6 Mar 2004 09:42:02 -0600    Greetings, "The Story Lady" of San Diego, was Emma "Emmie" Les Tina (Lestina) née Falkenberg. She was a well know California Radio-TV personality in the late 1940s to early 1950s. In 1943 she and her daughter, Dorothy author of "Icicles on the Roof"   were the first mother-daughter pair to join the WAC. Emma (lived 08 September  I898  to 05 December 1959) and Dorothy were my aunt and cousin. Emma wahusband was Frank J.  (lived 10 October 1894 to18 February 1968). It would gladden my heart   to hear from and receive information and photos from anyone who had listen to Emmie's , knew her and her family, and are relatives. Also, would appreciate any obituary, in memoriam, article and directory look-ups. Thank you for caring and sharing Frederick Falkenberg a 75 year old grandfather, on a limited income , writing a family history for his children

Gary, I don't think Joseph was his brother. Although I can't find his one brother. The other brother, John (Johann) stayed in Buffalo and lived out his life. The "missing" brother was Johann Georg.

Jane: Was thinking you might trace him back through "brother" Joseph?

It is an easy name to mis-spell which is part of the problem of tracking him. As far as I know he didn't marry until he finally ended up in Elko, NV where he spent the rest of his life. Family lore also says he had a freight company in either San Francisco or Sacramento which I can't find either!!
