This is out of a Barsdahler Book, I don't have the book, but this is an excerpt that was sent to me: Pragmann, Joh. Herm. Förster verh.

Speculating on the following: aus (24) : meaning the Haus Nr. that she came from? Brv. : meaning Bremervörde? Brchl. : ????? Westerberge : ??? gest. 1849 20 J. : meaning died at age 20? (Joh. T. (17) : ???? verh. (33) : meaning they married someone from that Haus Nr. ? verh. (6) : meaning they married someone from that Haus Nr. ? _______________________________________ Separate issue; Have you heard of "Fermstadt, Hannover, Deutschland," it appears in an obit during 1839. I have a very good Atlas, but I don't find it listed. Maybe its like Vieh, Part of Hüttenbush now. Thanks! Del Luetjen
Need to obtain a copy of an Obituary for Adelheid Pragmann Meier (Meyer) born 6 May 1824 in Hanover, Germany. Died 14 May 1870 in Missouri. They lived in southwestern Pettis County per the abstract of their property. I am trying to connect her to my great grandfather, Karl/Carl [Charles] Pragmann. He originally settled in Morgan County in 1856 and moved on to Emma, MO on the Lafayette and Saline County line in 1858. If someone could research this for me, I will gladly pay for your expenses. I am leaving for Germany in a little over 2 weeks and will be meeting with Pragmann's in Germany. Would like to have the Obit before leaving. Any help greatly appreciated. Del Luetjen

I am looking for my great-grandmother, Nancy Ann DALTON, born 25 JAN 1879/1880. She was born in Hastings, Missouri, according to one source. Hastain, Missouri may fit the bill. Her parents were DALTON and PHILLIPS. I do not have first names for either of her parents, or siblings. I realize this is a tall order, but could someone check the 1880 Benton County census for me and see if she is listed?? Thank you so much. Laura

Posted on: Benton Co. Mo Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mo/Benton/11102 Surname: Dunbar, Hill, Smith ------------------------- I am trying to locate Mollie (Mary Hill) Smith. She died in Warsaw between 1945 and 1951. Her maiden name was Hill, her mother's maiden name was Dunbar. She was a widow. I have heard that she was buried in Ray County, Missouri in Sunnyslope cemetery, but there is no one to help with records there. I would guess that a funeral home in Warsaw, Benton County, Missouri would have handled the arrangements. I have wrote to Jefferson City, for a 5 year search for death record, but have came up with nothing. Would appreciate any help, and would cover expense. Thank you.
