I'm the youngest of six children. I'm going to Ireland this summer and would like information about any family still in Tipperary or any information about who relatives were. Pat O'Meara of Delmar is my uncle, who I met about five years ago. Anybody out there got a family tree? Very interested. Please respond to my email address. I live in Alexandria Virginia and am a journalist with the Washington Times magazine.

There are some great questions here. I could find no additional info on Henry in the cemetery records. Hi, I want to tell all of you how much I appreciate the many hours of labor that have made your website so helpful. Thank you so much. I am trying to find some information about the deaths of a young child in Clinton County and his father. The boy is Henry KUNAU, age 3 in the 1880 Census in Elk River Township, ED 28. His parents were Siegfried KUNAU and Kunigunde FELDMANN Kunau, bp Prussia, both age 28 in the 1880 Census. Their other son, Arnold, age 1 in 1880, was my husband's maternal grandfather. Siegfried Kunau died, cause unknown at this time, and was buried at abt age 30, on Feb. 9, 1882 in Teeds Grove Cemetery. I have not found Henry mentioned again after 1880 but have found Kunigunde and Arnold in later Census records in the Clinton area and then in Chicago. Arnold is also mentioned on your site as a graduate of Lyons HS in the Class of 1896 but there is no mention of an older brother, Henry. Kunigunde remarried, widower, 64 yr old, Christian Andreas Matthiesen on Sept 19, 1885 in Clinton. She was 33. Kunigunde and Christian are living in the City of Clinton, ED 18, in the 1900 Census at 36 Seventh Street. He is said to be 77, b. Aug of 1822, imm in 1855 from Germany. She is 48, b. Feb 1852 in Germany, imm in 1875. That record says she has one child living of the two children born to her. Kunigunde and Siegfried had other family members living in the Clinton area. I have made contact and share information with Brice Peterson, born and raised in the Clinton area, now living in Minnesota, whose gt grandmother was Kunigunde's sister, Ida Caroline FELDMANN Dohrmann. Siegfried had a brother, John Kunau, who also farmed in the Clinton area and was married to another sister of Kunigunde, Anna Catherina FELDMANN. Kunigunde was again widowed abt age 50. Christian A. Matthiesen is buried at age. .abt 80, in Center Grove Cemetery, Sharon Twp. on May 2 of 1902. His first wife, Anna Christiena Matthiesen, died May 28, 1883 was buried in Center Grove also. (The Matthiesen's lived in Deep Creek Township, according to the 1880 Census.) Arnold Kunau is listed with his mother and Christian in Clinton in 1900 and also in a Boarding house in Southside Chicago that year. In 1910 and 1920, widow Kunigunde Matthiesen is living with her son Arnold and his wife, Henrietta BISCHOFF and daughters, Myrtle and Nankin Edith in Chicago, . . . according to Census records. When Kunigunde died in Chicago, April 11, 1922, her body was returned to Clinton for burial in Teeds Grove Cemetery, the site of her 1st husband's burial. I assume she is buried next to Siegfried. I found all of these cemetery records on your site and again, I want to say thank you! I am guessing that Henry may have died about the time of his father's death in 1882. Siegfried was such a young man, only 30 years of age when he died. Was there an epidemic in the area or some tragic event? Are there volunteers who are familiar with Teeds Grove Cemetery? I am wondering if perhaps Henry is buried near his father and Kunigunde. Would there be any death records for that early time period? What Church did these Prussian immigrants most likely attend in that farming area? Is that Church still in existance and are their Church Records kept somewhere? Arnold was born in Lyons, Feb 19, 1879, . . . .the year before State records were required. We don't know if Kunigunde & Siegfried were married in Prussia or Iowa. The Kunau's and Feldmann's came from Hallig Oland and Hallig Langeness in N. Friesland, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. I have looked but have not yet found their ship or immigration route . Their younger son, Arnold Kunau, died tragically in Chicago on April 30, 1923 and was buried May 2, 1923 at Memorial Park Cemetery in Skokie, IL, Cook County. Arnold was struck by a streetcar and died of the resulting injuries when his two daughters were very young. He was a theater musician and teacher, a clarinetist we're told. Are there any yearbooks from Lyons HS around 1896 that might have class pictures or Band photos? We have no photos of Arnold and would love to find some image that could be copied. If there is someone who might be familiar with the history of the Prussian immigrants in the rural Clinton area in this time period, I would be grateful for any information. Thank You.

I have added several hundred marriages to the archives, thanks to JoAn Hoffman who has been typing them up for us. I think we have them all for 1857 and half of 1858.

Hello Everyone: Our last Thursday night chat was with Ann from the Central Community Historical Society. The url for the transcript is http://iagenweb.org/chatroom/2002jan24.htm She was very informative and told us lots of things the Society has available. Next week, Jan 31st, we will be chatting with Cay Merryman who has over 20 years experience working at various LDS Family History Centers and has researched at the Family History Library in SLC many times. All of Clinton's vital records and many courthouse books have been microfilmed by the LDS along with many other goodies. Cay will give those of us who have never been to a FHC some tips on how to get started and what is available to us. The url for the chat room is below or click on the Clinton Chat link from our website. I hope you will all join us.

The Hanrahan line I know was in Illinonis in 1860s and John's wife Theresa immigrated 1849. In 1880 they were in Clinton County Iowa. 1890s Hanrahan brothers married Cahill Sisters then Hanrahan's moved to Cummings County, Nebraska. About 1901 two Hanrahan brothers moved back to Clinton County, Iowa were they lived until their death. I've seen the name Hanorah Hanrahan but I do not know the US origin of my Hanrahans, but they came from Ireland as did the Cahills.
