Hello everyone - I am the lucky owner of the 1907 Historical Encyclopedia of Illinois and Illustrated History of St. Clair County 2 volume set. In addition to many portraits and illustrations of well known St. Clairians at the time, there are biographical sketches of individuals as well. If you would like for me to check my volumes for your ancestors, please let me know the names you are looking for and I will provide you with a scan. I am researching the GASS, FRICK, WOLFERSBERGER, KOEHR lines and would be happy to correspond with others working on the same line. My main surnames are: FRICK GASS KAISER KOEHR KEHR KORR KOHR HOEFFKEN HOPFINGER MUELLER PLATZ STOEKEL TRIBOUT WADE WOLFERSBURGER KEHR, KORR, KOHR, KOEHR I am looking for information on Vitus Kehr of Ruppertsberg Germany, born 1604, who married Margarethe ?. Son was Veith Kehr, who married Eva Platz. They had a son named John Korr who married Margaret Munch. Their son was Henri Kohr born in Konigsbach, Germany, who married Maria Barbara Gabert.Their son Michael Kohr married Maria Barbara Munch. Their son Christopher Kohr married Maria Elizabeth Platz. Their son Bernard Kohr married Gertrude Dudenhoefer. Their son George Friedrich Koehr of Ruppertsberg, Germany married Mary Josepha Stoekel and emigrated to the United States in 1860, settling in Belleville, Illinois, St. Clair County. The Koehr name has evolved through from Kehr to Korr to Kohr to the present spelling of Koehr. GASS I am searching for family history on Nicholas Gass of Reding, France, born 1782. He married Marie Barbe Faber in 1807 and had a son Etienne Gass who emigrated to the United States, settling in Belleville, Illinois. Any info would be appreciated.
