I am looking for Caroline Schaaf, a daughter of Wolfgang Schaaf from Onsbach, Baden, who came to the states with her father and brother, Frank, in 1850 to the Ste. Genevieve, MO area. She doesn't seem to be findable on any of that area in Missouri on the 1860 census, so I wonder if she somehow found herself in Jersey county, perhaps with a Schaaf relative, by 1860. (Wolfgang died as soon as he arrived, and Frank and Caroline were, according to Frank's obit, taken care of by townspeople for a time) I find one reference to August Kiess, apparently as a minister in Franklin Co., MO a little later on. Maybe he was a minister in Jersey Co. in 1863? Please let me know if you have any information on a Caroline Schaaf in Jersey Co. 1850-1863.
