I believe he is a younger brother of Frederick RODDEWIG who settled in Galena a few years later. George Henry RODDEWIG obviously died in 1858 as his will is dated Jan 1858 and was proven in Feb 1858. Can someone provide an actual date of birth for him? Perhaps a tombstone has his birthdate. His only child to live to adulthood, Adam RODDEWIG, is buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Galena. However, his two infant sons and 12 year old dau, Caroline, are buried in St. Michaels Catholic Cemetery in Galena but I have not located the burial site for George Henry RODDEWIG. I've just sent several of my RODDEWIG files to Wolfgang RODDEWIG of Berlin, Germany. He will check his database to see if there is a match on Frederick and George Henry but actual dates of birth will certainly make his task easier. Of the 5 or 6 RODDEWIG researchers whom I 've corresponded with, only one has been a descendant of George Henry. We need his date of birth to determine where he was born.
