My g.g.grandfather was Henry S.(?) Shober, b. abt.1810 in Hesse Darmstadt; his wife, Elizabeth (maiden name unknown), b. abt. 1826 in Hesse Kassel (sp?). They immigrated (year unk) to the Lake County area of Illinois where they had at least 8 children, one of whom was my g.grandfather, Frank Shober, b. abt. 1856 in Illinois. Does anyone have any information about the Shober family from Hesse? Any help is appreciated - Thank You! Frank Johnson
