Hey, nice to be wanted! I'm still here on the list... My Luken interests lie in the family of Johann Christoff Ernst Lüdeken that immigrated in late 1855 to the Bunker Hill area. They shortened the name to Luken upon arrival. Johann Christoff Ernst Lüdeken *1790 Neudorf, Ostfriesland oo Antje Otjes Pülscher * 11 Jul 1791 Kleinoldendorf, Ostfriesland Children: 1. Christoff Janssen Lüdeken *6 Apr 1817, # 25 May 1872 oo Anna Catharina Hinrichs * 16 Jan 1837, # 9 Jan 1913 (II oo Diedrich Ekhoff) Children: 1. Antje Luken 2. Hannah Luken 3. Lena Luken 4. Katrina Luken 5. Minnie Luken 2. Garrelt Janssen Lüdeken *26 Jan 1820 oo Wübke Hinrichs Huisman *30 Jan 1828 1. Johann Lüdeken *29 Mar 1850 Neudorf 2. Heinrich Lüdeken *29 Nov 1852 Ockenhausen 3. Antje Mina Garrelts Lüdeken *5 Apr 1855 Ockenhausen 3. Trientje Janssen Lüdeken *28 Nov 1822, # Abt 1865 oo Gardett M Gardels *Abt 1818 Ostfriesland 1. John Gardels *Abt 1860 2. Wicebka Gardels *Abt 1864 4. Hinrich Janssen Lüdeken *1 Oct 1825 Neudorf Ioo Gesche Adden Hinrichs IIoo Trientje Adden Hinrichs 5. Anna Catharine Janssen Lüdeken *1 Dec 1828 Neudorf, #21 Mar 1882 oo Heye Weyen 6. Hilke Janssen Lüdeken *15 Mar 1833 Neudor, #1873 oo Oÿe Onnen Adden *7 Nov 1819 Kleinoldendorf, #18 Jan 1897 Nokomis Children's marriages (except for Garrelt & Wübke) took place in Madison or Macoupin Counties. I'm sure all immigrated but I haven't found anything about Garrelt except for what I have above. #1 Christoff, #3 Trientje & #5 Anna are my main focus now. I have basically just what I listed above. Anna's husband Heye Weyen is likely the brother of Weye Heyen Weyen that also settled in the Gillespie area. #4 Henry Luken has a nice published family history, I have "Revision #3 - July 25, 1988 (White Copy)" #6 Hilke & Oÿe Adden are my gg-gparents so I have quite a bit on them too.
