Surnames: Boes, Boy, Boey, Boer, Schriber Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Tk.2ADE/2239 Message Board Post: Surnames: Boes, Boy, Boey, Boer, Schriber Sophia Boes (Boey, Boer, Boy) married L.M.Schriber in Waukon on 1 October 1870. Sophia's surname is variously spelled. I have no record of the witnesses to this ceremony. I never found Schriber's full given name. There is a Sophie Boy recorded in the June 1870 Lansing Iowa Federal Census. She was identified as a domestic for a Lansing hotel, age 17. There is a possibility that this couple were witnesses to my grandparents' wedding 6 June 1870 in Waukon, Iowa. My grandmother's name was Louisa Boy (surname misspelled often). I would like to trace Sophia's ancestry and maybe discovering information about my grandmother Louisa Boy Fritz. I know only Louisa's marriage date. No parents, no birthplace, no correct birthdate and no immigration data.
