Has everyone heard that Ancestry is closing down the Rootsweb mailing lists in March? Is the admin of this list going to try and migrate the group somewhere else? We have started a new Idaho Genealogy message board/mailing list at "Groups.io" ( https://groups.io/g/IdahoGenealogy ) We want to place links to any county groups or specialized Idaho lists or groups on the home page. Of Course, anyone interested in Idaho genealogy is encouraged to join this new group I hope to hear from you RandyC

I've "rescued" two old photographs belonging to the KOEHLER Family the first a family photograph including Florella H.; George W.; William M.; William G. R.; Margaret E.; Virgil X.; Eldora Lois; and Sarah Lura KOEHLER which was taken at the Aristo Studio in Maryville, TN on 9 Aug 1909. The children range in age from 2 years to 17 years. All their birth dates are written on the back of the photograph as well as their names. The second photograph is one the KOEHLER Twins, Eugene Ludwig and Sarah Lura KOEHLER b. 12 Aug 1907. It is noted that Eugene Ludwig "Louie" died 1 Aug 1908. There is no studio or location indicated on this second photograph though the twins appear to be less than one year old at the time. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding this KOEHLER Family: William Gottlieb Reinhold KOEHLER was b. 27 Nov 1866 in Dickinson Co. KS to parents Rev. Reinhold Garr KOEHLER (b. 1834) and Emily KOEHLER (b. 1838). William was one of 6 children born to this couple including, William G. R.; Jane; Emily; Eliza; Dole; and Reinholdt KOEHLER, all born between 1866 and 1879. William married Florella H. HESS (1867-1909) on 27 May 1890 in Momence, IL and together they had 9 children including, William McKinley; Reinhold James; James Ransom; Margaret Emily or Emilie; George William; Virgil Xenophen; Florella Hess; Eldora Lois; Eugene Ludwig; and Sarah Lura KOEHLER, all born between 1890 and 1909. William was a Printer and Newspaper man and he died 28 Feb 1938 and is buried in the Woodlawn Cemetery in Tampa, FL. His wife Florella H. HESS KOEHLER was b. 16 Feb 1867 in Momence, IL to parents James HESS (1840-1908) and Margaret OLDS (1845-1937). Florella had at least 6 siblings including, Sarah; Bertha; George Andrew; Alford or Alfred; Margaret P. (married BURTON); and Lois Mary (later married TANHEY) HESS, all born between 1867 and 1882. Florella died 11 Apr 1909 in Maryville, TN and is buried in the Shrontz Cemetery in Momence, IL along with family members. Margaret Emilie KOEHLER was b. 5 Jul 1892 in Walnut, IA to William and Florella KOEHLER and married Ralph Russell CANNONS (1896-1956) and together they had two children including, William George CANNONS (1918-1979) and Harry Virgil CANNONS (1921-1994). Margaret died in 1972. William M. KOEHLER was b. 8 Aug 1896 and died 9 Jul 1978 and is buried in the Mountain View Cemetery in Pocatello, ID. Florella KOEHLER was b. 22 Aug 1898 and married Earle STAFFORD (1897-1963) and she died 24 Jun 1974 in Ashland, KY and is buried in the Rose Hill Burial Park and Mausoleum in Ashland, KY. Virgil Xenophone KOEHLER was b. 16 Sept 1900 in Perrysville, IN to these same parents and married Clara S. (b. 1906) and together they had two children. Virgil died 22 Nov 1964 in Hillsborough Co. FL. Eldora Lois KOEHLER was b. 19 Feb 1903 in Perrysville, IN to these same parents and married Mr. BOYD. She died 22 Jul 1990 in Greensboro, NC. Sarah Lura KOEHLER was b. 12 Aug 1907 in Maryville, TN to these parents and married Charles Finney WAKELAND (1915-1978) and together they had a daughter, Sarah Florella WAKELAND who was born and died in 1944. Sarah died 22 Jan 1979 in Tampa, FL. Eugene Ludwig KOEHLER was also born 12 Aug 1907, Sarah's twin brother and he died in August 1908 at the age of one year.
