    3. Hello Jean, While some of the SCHMITT descendants stated on the 1900 census that they immigrated in 1846, none of the family members appear on the 1850 census and only John, 29 [b 1831], Adam 27, [b. 1833], Michael 70 [b 1810?] and wife Anna [45] appear on the 1860 census for Westphalia Twp [all under "SMITH"]. What other place might they have lived before settling in Westphalia Township? Re Peter SCHMITT b. Feb 1831 per 1900 census Westphalia Twp. [wife Mary, dau. Gertrud, son John] says he came in 1852. Are you saying that this Peter is different from the one who moved to Isabella Co after marriage? What if any connection did the SCHMITTs have to neighbors John MAUER [b. 1854], his brother Adam [b. 1848] and their mother Lucy [b. 1818]? The reason I'm asking is that Michael SMITH/SCHMITT, age 70 and wife Anna 45, lived with the MAUER family in 1860.

    3. The Peter Schmitt b 1831 is Peter Hubert Schmitt, son of Michael and Catherine Miller who arr. in 1852. Peter is the bro/of John Adam Schmitt & Lucia Schmitt Mauer Lucia married John Peter Mauer. They had 6 children. Peter married Maria Catherine Schafer. They had 7 children. This is not the Peter Smith that moved to Isabella Co. Mich. > >Re Peter SCHMITT b. Feb 1831 per 1900 census Westphalia Twp. [wife Mary, dau.
