    1. Looking for any info on this family
    2. This info comes from the 1880 US Census; 1.Gotleib Schmidt age 36, b.WI, parents b.Germany ************************************ 2.Mary Schmidt age 29, b.WI, parents b.Germany ********************* 3.Frank Schmidt age 13, b.WI ********************* 4.Mary Schmidt age 10, b.MN ****************** 5.Edward Schmidt age 9, b.MN ************* 6.Tilda Schmidt age 6, b.MN *********************** 7.William Schmidt age 4, b.MN **************** 8.Clara Schmidt age 2, b.MN ******************* 9.Pauly Schmidt age 1m, b.MN ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mother Mary died shortly after this census. Frank married a girl from Grantsburg, WI and moved to Oregon. Edward and William later followed him out there and lived in Washington and Oregon. Edward married and had a daughter, but he died quite young. William lived around Walla Walla, Washington and spent time in Alaska. I don`t think William ever married. Mary went by the name May. May married Louis Roberts. May and Louis/Lewis lived in St. Paul Park, MN where they had four boys and a girl (names unknown). Tilda went by Tillie. Tillie married Benard Rohr(not sure of spelling). Tillie stayed in Minneapolis and had at least one daughter(Bernetta). Clara Married Joseph Andrew McLane, they lived there lives in the Twin Cities, MN. Clara and Joseph`s children are Lester Roy, Mildred Arlene, Lucille Helen, Joseph Edward, and Shyrle Emily(died as infant). Gotleib supposedly married again after Mary died and had a farm near Grantsburg, WI. Looking for any information on these families. Thanks

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VIB.2ACE/50 Message Board Post: My children descend from Frederick (Frank) Hed (D:1918) and his wife Eva Lovisa Gustafson Hed, (D: 1934) and both are buried at Bernadotte Lutheran church. Their son Carl Edwin Hed married Lydia Dannheim. While I have some information on the Gustafsons and Dannheims, I am not sure about Frank Hed's parents. In the 1880 US Census for Alfsborg Twp, there is a John, a Charles, and Frank. Is John the father of Charles and Frank? Would like to find someone also searching this family to share information.

You will not find physical newspapers before about 1900. The paper was in publication before 1900 and there are a few rag-tag years available before this time but the selection is in extremely BAD shape. I am 'told' that the MN. Historical Society in Minneapolis/St.Paul MN has microfich copies of All papers within MN. I have not gone that route yet.

    1. Laramie/Carpenter
    2. Statement of Louisa Carpenter. (Taken August, 1901.) "My father was Louis Laramie, a Canadian Frenchman. I am 57 years old (summer, 1901) and a widow. I was born here at Traverse in 1844. My father was in the employ of the Fur Company at Traverse many years before I was born, but I do not know when he came here. His first wife died here and was probably buried in the little French cemetery. He married my mother at Mendota about 1842 or 1843. Mother was his second wife. Father Ravoux married them. Mother`s maiden name was Mary Red Iron, daughter of the old Chief Red Iron. Father was much older than mother. He died at Traverse on January 1st, 1863, soon after the Indians were hung in Mankato. Mother was a full blooded Sioux.

Clearly whoever staffs the help desk doesn't have a clue what to look for....but then am I crazy? I could not find Census information there for Sibley in 1870....they may have copied the microfilm exactly as they received it from NARA, but was the microfilm correct.? > Bad enough that 1890 doesn't exist, but not to have 1870 also....that becomes a major loss.
