I am pretty sure this Friedrich Thies was the brother of my ggg grandma Wilhelmina Thies Biermann, Sophia Scharringhausen and the Henry Thies who settled in Palatine.

Thanks I picked this out of all the recent messages... so are they [Sophia, Friedrich 1822-1890, Wilhelmine Thies Biermann and Heinrich] the children of Johann Heinrich Thies (1777-1867) who is buried in Elk Grove (cemetery?) and wife Dora Dowl? Any dates for daughter Sophia and son Heinrich Thies? or spouse for Sophia Thies? Karen Rowe ORION195@aol.com wrote: > >In a message dated 1/15/2006 12:02:18 P.M.
