_____ From: Ann Vasconi [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2010 6:22 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: Schmidt - Bush I am searching for information concerning WILLIAM SCHMIDT born October 1870 in Germany. He immigrated to America at the age of 10. He married Lena\Lina BUSH December 1900. William died 17 October 1945 according to his obituary. They had four sons, Louis, John born 1906, Carl and Jake (Jacob). William died at his home outside Maynard. The family was Lutheran. I can not find a death certificate for either William or Lena. The boys births are not listed at the Minnesota Historical Society. I have not found the family listed in the census. The only information that I have is from the obituary. I would like to know who Lena's parents are. Who are William's parents? Who did he come to America with? Do I have the correct spelling for Schmidt and Bush? When was Lena born and when did she die? Thanks to anyone that can help me with this family. Ann Vasconi
