    3. Just received confirmation that Sophia Christina Wilhelmina Moenkhoff b. 7 Jul 1830 in Kleinenbremen d. 18 Apr 1900 in Hoyleton. Does anyone have access to the Hoyleton church records to see if there are any notes recorded there? (We had previously assumed an earlier death date for a Christine Poehler we found. Not the same lady!) Christina married 1) Adam Hanenberger abt 1856 and 2) John Fredric Poehler 24 Dec 1874. According to the probate records, she was using the name Hanenberger by her death in 1900. We are wondering whether she divorced Poehler prior to his death 21 Feb 1888. There is a family story of a divorce, but it's nonspecific. Also, are there any on this list researching any Hanenberger lines? I've been going through some odd census pages here and there and browsing the 1880 census index online at familysearch and note that there is more than one family of Hanenberger in the area of Covington/New Minden. This one is not old enough to be Adam's father and certainly not a son. There's gotta be a connection here someplace! Just gotta. Thanks, Jerry in Boise
