Let me know, I have DOB for all, not sure who came to America with Jacob and Catharina. Atleast 1 child did my GGgrandfather, who was called Charles on marraige record when he married Frances Finkler in Michigan. Take care! Angi 4) Ludwig Gros

I have a Jacob Martin/Martin Gross who came to America circa 1850-1870. His wife was Mary Bartel/Barthel. I have seen him listed on other peoples world connect sites as arriving in 1880 or so - but I have a son Martin Gross who was born in Pittsburgh, PA in 1873 and I have his Birth cert. to prove that - so I cannot prove that this Jacob is for sure my Martin's father. A lot of the family names are similar.
