Dianne, I did not find a listing for Josephine Thies. Wm and Mary are listed in St. Anthony Cem. For what it is worth, Wm and Josephine are listed in the 1870 census for Douglas Twp. in Effingham Co. He is listed as a cooper, she a housekeeper. Both are 25 yrs old. My email was returned when I sent this message to your address. Audrey [email protected]
