I'd like to hear from anyone researching the following families from Richland Township from about 1850 through 1920 +/-. All were active at St. John's German Evengelical Church, Stolpe Carl Bock Ludwig Hardtke Johann Hardtke Friedrich Kroeppel Heinrich Gungoll (also Sicht, Reddtke, Bohl, and Fromm) Ken Hartke
Ken; Not sure if I've contacted you in the past, but I have a Herman Bock b. GEB 12 May 1859, d. GEST 6 Aug. 1890 (not sure what the GEB & GEST is but listed on his headstone). mar' Emilie Buerger b. 20 Sept. 1859 in Prussia, d. 30 Oct. 1883, in Gasconade Co, MO. She is listed in Cem' Bk of Gasconade Co, Herman Public Library Annex, in Burger fam' Cem', in Morrison area & listed as nee Bock, so almost 100% sure she was mar' to Herman. He however, is in Berger Fam' Cem' Saline Co, MO along w/ Frederick Fritz Berger & Wife Ellen Bromley Berger who are my hus' maternal gr'parents. There are only 4-5 graves, sitting in the mid of a cornfield. Have yet to locate the Burger Fam' Cem' in Morrison, Gasconade Co, evidently there are a large # of Cem's scattered thruout the area, but we intend to keep looking. Morrison is/was Richland twp. 1870-80 & the Fam' surname was Buerger on 1870 Census (same source). If you've learned any further info on Carl Bock, re par's/sib's/decendents, I'd very much appreciate a reply. All the Best, Jeannine Burks
