Emig. ca 1854 to Washington Co, WI. Married 1855 to Cunigunda Schuster (b1828 in Bavaria). Ca 1870 to Mitchell Co., IA where both died and are buried. Unfortunately have no siblings yet for Benedict nor precise locations in Germany for either family. There is another line of Faas that passes through WI to IA that follows similar paths but haven't connected to them. They end up in Iowa Co., IA. Perhaps the common denominator is another generation back.

I am looking for the ancestors of Frank Donsbach (Donsbock), who was born in Illinois in 1872. His parents "may" have been Edmond and Gertrude. On a 1930 Idaho census, Frank indicates that his father was from Wisconsin. I have another source that says his father was from Germany. Frank Donsbock was the 2nd husband of my great-grandmother.

I am searching for HERMAN & WILHELMINE (nee SCHINKE/SCHUNKE) ROCK who emigrated from an area near Labes, Kreis Regenwalde, Prussia/Pommern about 1874 with their children, William, b. 1871 and Anna b. 1873. They came to Clintonville, Waupaca Co., WI prior to the birth of my grandfather Charles (Carl) on July 28, 1874. My grandfather's baptism certificate indicates that the God parents were Gustav and August ROCK and Emilie KLEMP geb. ROLOFF. The baptism took place in the German Lutheran church or meeting place in New London WI. HERMAN ROCK'S death certificate lists his parents as Carl and Christine Rock of Germany. Church records for William and Anna ROCK indicate they were baptized in Loepersdorf, Kreis Regenwalde which is now ZACHELMIE and is 5.2 km and 265 degrees from Labes which is now LOBES and is a part of Poland.
