My Jefferson County Names: HERZOG, ZIEGLEMEYER, HAMPEL, SCHWENK, KLODT related names by marriages that I take an interest in: NAES, GRIMM, Looking for Robert HUMPHREY but have not located him yet. I also keep an eye on the ZOLLMAN / ZOLLMANN and BLANK families, as I believe (but have not proof) that they came from Mensfelden Germany, my SCHWENK married DEUSER (mothers maiden name ZOLLMANN) and started out in St. Louis county and I think they may have gone to Jefferson County following some type of relationship to ZOLLMANN AND BLANK... there are several areas of the US where the 4 families listed traveled together from Mensfelden. Happy Hunting!! Linda

I believe I've corresponded with a gentleman on this list about a Claiborn Nash a few years ago. Will that person contact me? Thanks. -Kay, FL

I am researching these names: Ephraim Williams family Holdinghaus or Holdinghausen Family Crain or Crane Family Stack Family Thanks, Becky

STONE's two-year old boy fell into a cistern, containing four feet of water, and it is thought that he was in the water as long as two minutes before he was rescued. No one was at the house at the time but a couple of women, but they succeeded in apprising Mr. DICKERSON, who was working near by, of the situation, and he lost no time in getting the child out of the water. A second or two longer might have been too late. Dr. P.G. KENNETT and Mrs. Ida KENNETT were married again, last week, in St.Louis. They have our earnest wishes for a happy and prosperous journey through life. Wm.

He leaves a wife and eight children, nearly all grown. Mr. F. was one of our oldest settlers, having come to this county in 1838 and resided here ever since then. He was one of our best citizens, highly respected by all who knew him. The family have our sympathy. The funeral was one of the largest we have had here, parties from St. Louis and elsewhere attending. Mr.CROCKERY missed some honey out of his hives at the Castle, and on searching for the thieves found where they sold the honey. and a warrant was issued for Sam and Ike BRADFIELD, who are supposed to be the guilty ones.

Israel LEE was born in 1805 in what is now Cape Girardeau County. Previous researchers have him married to Eleanor “Nellie” ALLEN. The entry for her in the family bible is, “Ealenor Lee born June 7 1809.” Israel LEE is listed in Big River Township in Jefferson County in the 1830 census. I am descended from Israel’s son William Fredrick LEE and Melvina Catherine FROST. They were married in Jefferson County in 1873. I would appreciate any help in finding a marriage record for Israel and Eleanor. I would also appreciate any help in finding their place of burial. Plus, who were the parents of Eleanor ALLEN?

Listers, Can someone tell me how to up load a family tree file to rootsweb? Thanks, Jody

Listers, I could use your help. I also am researching the names Toulouse, Tooloose, Toolooze, O'Niel, Elders, McMullin, Hoover, along with Polite, Rouggly Ogle and Null. However, due to a relationship breakdown, I am no longer in contact with Rita. What I need to know is who is Jay that she spoke of and how can I reach him. After all, geneology is all about SHARING information right? I have some probate papers as far back as 1823 on a Joseph Barutel dit Toulouse and his son...Stephen. I also have several other documents that I would share on the O'Neil and Hoover trees. Thank you all for your help. Jody

Thought some one the list (especially those in the area who maybe don't like driving long distances themselves) may be interested in this post I got from the St. Charles list--KEvin -------------------------------- The St. Charles County Genealogical Society and the St. Charles Community College is again sponsoring their annual genealogy research trip to the Allen County Public Library in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. The trip will run from 8-12 June, with a bus leaving St. Charles, Missouri. There will be pickups along I 70 in Illinois for those who live near that route. In addition, we are also accepting a limited number of drivers who will meet us in Ft. Wayne rather than riding the bus. More details about these options are on our website: http://www.rootdig.com/acpltrip.html Trip Genealogist will be Michael John Neill, columnist for the Ancestry Daily News and faculty member of the Genealogical Institute of Mid America. There will be a lecture each day (before the library opens) and Michael will be available during library hours for consultations and assistance. Trip participants will also be given access to a password protected website where they can interact with Michael and other trip goers to help them perpare and make the most of their library time. Registration is limited. More information is available on our website at: http://www.rootdig.com/acpltrip.html Thanks! Michael __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
