Posted on: Maries Co MO Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mo/Maries/10702 Surname: Juergens, Menzel, Crismon ------------------------- Is anyone researching the families of JUERGENS or MENZEL? They are the grandparents of my Grandmillie, Amelia Victoria Crismon, daughter of Gilbert Oliver Crismon and Unia Amelia Juergens. They came to Maries County about 1850 and were the first German Catholic Settlers in Maries County. My grandmillie said that they were married in 1838 in Pittsburgh, PA, but I can't find anything there on them. They stopped enroute to Missouri for a few years in Illinois finally getting to Maries Co. in 1850. Again, looking for any information on parents or siblings of Clemens Juergens or his wife Pauline Menzel. Thanks, Kay
