Hi All I wondered if it was possible for someone to check for two births for me, in Frankfurt am Main, these are highlighted below (shown as Unknown around 1838 and 1840). I am hoping that one of them is a Frederick (Fritz) Grahl. If this is correct he married an Augusta and they had at least one son named Conrad Emil Grahl who came over to Leeds, England. He became a naturalised British Citizen which is how I found this information. I would love to hear from anyone who is researching the GRAHL family from Frankfurt and before that Cassel.

George Bichmann b. Hesse Cassel 1830. Father was Lawrence. Please contact me with any information. Thank you, Jim

I only have one Kunkelmann in my files. She is my 3rd Great Grandmother and her name is Eva Katharina Kunkelmann born November 11, 1825 in Hessen Darmstadt Germany she died December 11, 1912 in Franklin Twp, Cass County, Iowa She was buried December 14, 1912 at Greenwood Cemetery "Spies Lot" Cumberland, Cass County Iowa. She was married to George Peter "Peter" Engelhardt. He was born October 15, 1816 in Erbach, Odenwald Hessen Germany. He arrived in New York on January 31, 1848 on the ship Switzerland. He died February 08, 1888 in Rock City, Stephenson County, Illinois. He was buried December 14, 1912 in Greenwood Cemetery "Spies Lot" Cumberland, Cass County Iowa. Eva C. "Inglehart" Engelhardt is in the 1880 Census in Kansas, Labette County living with her daughter Elizabeth Katharina "Katie" Engelhardt and her husband Ludwig Peter "Louis" Spies and their children. I am trying to find who her parents are. I am not sure if she came here with her parents or her brother. I found Kunkel;mann's in the 1920-1950 Passenger and Immigration Lists. It shows for the same family that arrived in New York August 19, 1846 on the Louis Phillip: Leonard 36, Wilhelm 31, Catharine 21, Elisabethe 6, Johann 5, then in the 1880 census it shows Leonard and Catherina (which may have been Wilhelm) age 70 and 62 living in Wisconsin. The age for Catharine would be right because in the 1880 Kansas census living with her daughter she was 53 that would make her born in 1827 and the ships list 1846 from 21 would make her born 1825 which she was born November 11, 1825. But the age of Leonard and Wilhelm would be to young for Catharine to be their daughter. Then she married George Peter in New York in about 1852. They maybe in the 1850 census in New Your and this will tell if Leonard and Catharina were brother and sister. Cheryl

Ed I found Nosberts in Grandduchy Of Hessen, Map Guide to German Parish Registers. It is located in Hessen Nassau, Province of Oberhessen, District of Shotten. Rebsdorf was not listed in this book.

Hi Everyone, Does anyone out there have the passenger and immigration lists for 1851-???? I am looking for Jacob Spies, wife Elizabeth, Children Heinrich, Adam, Peter, Gertrude, Maria Anna, Margarethe, Jacob, Ludwig Peter "Louis" Spies (my family), and Wilhelm Spies. I have the passenger and immigration lists for 1820-1850 but they are not in that one. I am trying to find connections between my Jacob Spies family and Justus/Justis Spies family which I found in the 1820-1850 ships list and 1860 census for Winnebago, Wisconsin. I found Justus Spies son Augustus living in Menominee, Michigan and found out he was also from Darmstadt like my Spies and I started the search to connect them. Now I need your help with the ships list and census to put Justus/Justis Spies and Jacob Spies as brothers. I am wishing that the 1851 passenger and immigration lists and the 1860 census will put them as brothers and find the parents for both of them. Thank you, Cheryl

I am searching for any one with the names Engelhardt, Kunkelmann, and Spies. Thank you, Cheryl

I want to thank so many people who responded to my question. Obviously, what I thought might be unusual was quite common. I also enjoyed some of the very unique stories that several people shared! Sharon

My grandmother immigrated as a "mail-order bride". Her husband had died and friends from the area who had immigrated earlier, wrote there was a widower in their neighborhood who was willing to pay for her and her daughter to immigrate to the US if she would marry him when they arrived. She agreed. They did indeed marry, but he was not as he represented himself. In fact, my grandmother was his fourth wife. The first one died and the other two divorced him. They must have had good reason to divorce him, since my grandmother did so also. She moved to another town and never remarried. Karlyn

Sharon, In some research I did on a line in Baden, I found that a woman with four small children (youngest less than a year old) immigrated to the US. She had never been married. Records showed that she was asked to leave because she was of poor moral character having her children with two or more different fathers. Two of the fathers, her family, the town and even the government of Baden contributed money to pay her passage. She came into the port of Baltimore in the mid 1850's and married within a month of her arrival to a man who had not been on the ship with her. In that case it was lucky that she was rather notorious and there were quite a lot of records about her immigration. Nancy M.

Sharon, My GGM, at age 30 and pregnant with my GF, left her husband in Unter-Schönmattenwag, Hesse and emigrated to Chillicothe, Ohio in 1873. She never remarried, never naturalized and never went back.

Just recently I've learned that my gggrandmother may have been married with a child prior to her marrying my gggrandfather. The timeline is approximately this: -- Mary's son Jacob b ca 1851 in GE; census records say he immigrated in either 1853 or 1855 -- Mary's next son b Nov 1855 in NJ; different husband Any thoughts welcome.
