Dear List, Looking for information on this family. Mother Eleonore Siegmann nee Lohmann immigrated in 1854 with children. Sources say that son Heinrich Wilhelm Siegmann and his wife Sophia Homeyer also had a son/stepson??? who was Christoph Koelling (born 1827... buried at Beecher, IL)... does anyone know about this Siegmann-Homeyer-Koelling relationship?
