This really more or less for Natalie who is doing the Franklin Co., Missouri death records. These names are connected with Franklin, Warren and Chariton Counties in Missouri. Rehme (Renne, Remme, Remmie, etc) Himmelberg (Henneberg, Hommelberg, etc) Ladners, Ladeners Holkenbrink, Holdenbrink (same family, I think) Barhorst Brand, Brandt Fuemmeler Schwering Geisler (Geissler) Schmidt Smith Brucks Kohne Ebert (Elbert) Haskamp Brinker Barringhaus Just a few to get you started. These were all connected to the Catholic Churches of the area. Pat

I was able to trace my great grandfather,James Richard Duncan to Franklin Co., born June 17,1845 in Calvey. I am hoping that I may get information about his parents. Thank you.

The deaths I have are: 31 Mar 1871 Death Johannes Spindler 5 Sep 1872 Death Katharina (Schaub) Spindler Nov 1885 Death John Spindler 6 Jun 1901 Death Johann Jakob Schaffner 19 Feb 1903 Death Fredrich Schaffner 27 Mar 1903 Death Simeon (John Simon) Spindler 28 Oct 1903 Death Susanna (Bohrn) Schaffner 10 Mar 1911 Death Ann Maria (Erni) Spindler 9 Apr 1915 Death Anna Margaretha (Schelker) Schaffner 13 Aug 1917 Death Samuel Spindler 14 Sep 1921 Death Simon John Spindler Sep 1925 Death Minnie (Schaffner) Holzer 12 Jul 1931 Death Ernst Christian Spindler Jul 1933 Death Rosina (Schaffner)Schmidt 14 Apr 1935 Death Samuel Holzer 7 Oct 1950 Death Mary (Schaffner) Doerflinger 3 Oct 1961 Death Amy (Clark) Schaffner 1 Aug 1963 Death Florence Mae (Clark) Schaffner Apr 1976 Death Cora (Kaiser) Schaffner- 12 Feb 1988 Death Ralph Schmidt Some of these are probably after your time frame. The Schaffners, Spindlers and Doerflingers were mostly born in Switzerland. Will this information be on the internet somewhere? Thank you for doing this!

My Franklin County surname is Woodcock.William and Mary.

In one of the records of my g-g-grandfather George Fuchs, (born in Germany 1859, immigrated to United States in 1882, died in Pacific, Missouri in 1939), I noticed the mention of a sister, Mrs. Philip Crews. Is there anyone that would know who this might be? Bill Scroggin Chesterfield, Missouri

Hello Natalie, 3 of my people are known to have died in your time period. Friederick W. Schierenberg, Died 30 Jan 1886/8,Franklin Co,MO Herman Stutte, Died 19 Feb 1889, Franklin Co, MO Phillipine (Jung) Stutte, Died 16 Jan 1888, Franklin Co, MO Family I haven't found Friederick Wilhelm Schierenberg & Friedrika Karoline (Schaeffer) Children: Juliana Sophia Friedrika (Schierenberg) B 1858, Died? Luise Henrietta Fredrika (Schierenberg) B 1855, Died? Frederick Fritz Schierenberg B 1864, Died? Anna Friedericke B 1857, Died? Sophia Luise (Schierenberg) B 1816, Died? Luise Friedrika (Schierenberg) B 1844, Died? Conrad August Schierenberg Date of Death or Place is unknown. Children: Fernardina Louise Friederika (Schierenberg) B 1836, Died? Augusta Hermina Louise (Schierenberg) B 1841, Died Clementine Sophia Conradina (Schierenberg) B 1843, Died? August Wilhelm Theodore B 1846, Died? Any Schierenbergs you find are probably relatives of mine. Barbara (Stutte) B 1859, Died? I hope this information will help the both of us. Best regards, LouAnn Glasgow

Do you have any family with the last name of WIEDENBROKER in the Death Registry? My Edna WIEDENBROKER was. b. about 1897 but perhaps you have her parents (unknown first names) or another family member? So far I have found absolutely nothing on this elusive ancestor! Thanks Stormy

Dear list I have been transcribing the Death Register for Franklin Co for the Missouri State Archives and wanted to request some help from everyone on the list. If you have family living in Franklin Co during these years, I would like you to send me those names. I might be able to find you some interesting facts, and this would give me a good way of double checking my entries. Even more importantly I may end up figuring out some of the spellings for many of these German names. The script was pretty fancy and sometime illegible. If you know of someone who died during this time and know the date that would be great. But even if you don't think anyone from your family died, I still request you send the name...there are a tremendous number of infants who died and you may not have known about these family members. It has been very interesting to transcribe this register. The records can contain any of the following - Name, sex, color, age at death (down to day sometimes), occupation, date of death, marital status, nationality, where born, how long resident of state, place of death, cause of death, complication, duration of complication, duration of disease, place of burial, date of burial, name of undertaker, place of business, name and residence of physician returning certificate. I have gotten attached to many of the undertakers and physicians, have learned a lot about 1800's medicine and handwriting, and have given myself quite a headache figuring out some of the words. Interesting occupations I have come across are coopers, cigar makers, marble cutter, wagon maker, shoemaker, etc. And some of the ailments went from sad to confusing. Great numbers died of cholera, dysentery & typhoid fever. And of course many women died in childbirth. Several were hit by trains, shot, and one guy died on gangrene of the mouth - yuck. I hope we can be of some use to each other. So please send me the names of your ancestors today. Thanks Natalie Athens GA

Does anyone have any information on Daniel R. Perkins, Rev. Isaac Herrin, Woodford Jones, or William Francis Alexander? They were all in Franklin County in the 1820"s. Thank you for any information. Joan

Thanks to a couple of the new census/index CDs out there now that make searching the whole country quicker, I recently discovered that my great great grandparents (GENTZ) appear to have settled in Boles Township from the time of their arrival in the US in 1869 until appearing in Michigan in the early 1880s. (It's been a frustrating 14 year gap because I have everything on the family after 1883 and their life in Germany before their arrival in the US in 1869. I await getting to the FHC next week to order the 1870 census to help confirm that the family I found is the family I seek. In the meantime, can anyone tell me what Lutheran Churches might have been around in Boles Township in this time period (1869-1880). I have the 1880 census page they are on, but I am unfamilar with the township so I can't tell you which part of the township -- north, south, etc. My Great Grandmother and her brother would have been confirmed in this time period. Thank you for your help. Lisa Eschenburg

Marti I recently found a transcription of 1860 and 1870 Crawford Co. MO census, and it possibly could be the family you are looking for. 1860 Crawford Co., Benton Township Samuel Burkley 33 b. PA Araminta 33 b. PA John M. 9 b. PA James H. 7 b. PA Henry F. 4 b. PA Elizabeth 2 b. PA 1870 Crawford Co., Benton Township Sam Burley 44 b. PA Arminta 43 b. PA John M. 19 b. PA James A. 17 b. PA Henry F. 14 b. MO Elizabeth 12 b. MO Oream 9 b. MO (female) Samuel B. 6 b. MO Clara A. 4 b. MO Laura 3 b. MO 1870 Crawford Co., Knob View Township James Burley 39 b. PA Sarah 42 b. PA Mary A. 16 b. PA Lizzie 12 b. MO Henry 8 b. MO Wilson, John 11 b. MO Taylor, Frank 21 b. IL These people may not be Byerlys, but the name is so often distorted. My great aunt married a John Byerly, and everybody in the family pronounced it Barley. Hope this helps somebody. Jewell --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!?
