    1. PLUMER and GELTHAUS surnames - near Hanover
    2. Carolyn Beno
    3. My Great, Great, Great Grandparents are Johann Heinrich PLUMER and Maria Martha Henrietta GELTHAUS. Johann Heinrich Plumer (01 October 1795 - 02 April 1883), was born in Tchobrink ( Aschen ), Kingdom of Hanover, Germany. Johann Heinrich PLUMER and Maria Martha Henrietta GELTHAUS & family emigrated to California, Moniteau county, Missouri in the 1840s, then moved to Oak Township, Mills County, Iowa in 1851. Mills County IA is just south of the Omaha, NE/Council Bluffs, IA metropolitan area. Their 6 children were born in Germany between 1823 and 1838. Information on them and their descendents is available on http://plumersettlement.org/. I am interested in contacting anyone who has these surnames in the mid-1800s in the US or Germany. For those interested in genographic data, a female offspring of Ms. Gelthaus is Haplotype K. Thank You. Carolyn Beno Scottsdale AZ

    1. KALMER u. WINTERMANN in Emsland?
    2. I am looking for these folks probably somewhere in the Emsland area. These families are Catholic: KALMER (var. Calmer, Calmire, etc.), Caspar, b. ca 1794 Married Maria KRIEGER, b. ca 1800. Children: Heinrich, b. July 1820 Matthias, b. July 1822 Franz, b. 1827 Maria, b. 1829 WINTERMANN, Johann Heinrich probably born in Lengerich. These families emigrated in 1844 to Monroe Co., IL (other side of the river from St. Louis, MO). The Wintermanns died in a cholera epidemic in 1849, with one son surviving and lived with the Kalmers thereafter. I am aware of the Ortsfamilienbuecher and the Emsland websites; however, my folks don't appear. Any thoughts other than going from one parish to another in Emsland? Thanks, Cynthia in California

    1. DE BLOIS - NJ, Koblenz, Huckeswagen, Netherlands?, Eltern?
    2. Beth Crawford
    3. Hello all, I am new to this list and am here to introduce myself and give a brief summary of my unending and fascinating search. I am one of hundreds of American citizens living in Montreal. The name of my Grandmother (DE BLOIS) abounds here in Quebec. However, my family went from Koblenz to New Jersey at the end of the Civil War. I have followed the family (with LDS films) from Bad Ems and Koblenz to Huckeswagen and Elten. A person in the Netherlands who is also interested in this name has given me a huge genealogy that includes France, Belgium and the Netherlands. At the moment I am trying to connect dots and will be looking into Eltern soon. So, I would be pleased to hear from anyone who might be interested in this name or who might like me to watch for information from FHL Film 0920122 (Kirchenbuch, 1749, Katholische Kirche, Hasselunne Kr. Meppen) which appears to be the only film with information of Eltern. Regards, Beth

Their small daughter, Julianna was only one year old, when they arrived in this country. We were excited to find this information on the passenger manifest and that they were from Hannover. Since we have a date of arrival in New York, where do we write to find their Auswanderung record? Any help that you can give us would be appreciated. Thank you.

    1. Manyhouse surname of Hanover
    2. Greenwood
    3. Documents and censuses in the USA for a MANYHOUSE family indicate Hanover, Germany as the birth place of Frederick [Fritz] W. MANYHOUSE who came to the US and was located in Missouri in the 1860 census as Fritz MIMICHOUSE, age 25 born Hanover. In the same household is Emeline MIMICHOUSE, 22y born Missouri. We know this to be his wife, Virginia Emeline KINNEMAN, they wed 1860 in Missouri. This couple had 5 children I've been able to trace across the US, but have found no living persons carrying this name. Spelling has been the problem in locating documents and living descendants. This name is exceedingly rare in the US although many different spellings abound. MANNEHOUSE, MINNIEHOUSE, MANNINGHOUSE, MANHOUSE, etc. Also, the alternative spelling HAUS is found. The most productive of the spellings is MANYHOUSE. I've begun a Rootsweb Message Board for that spelling. Where might I look to find references to this surname group & find out more about its history in the Hanover area ? My family links backward are KEHR > ISENBERG > MANYHOUSE.

    1. Possible link between ISRAEL and ROSENBAUM families
    2. Sid and Nancy Salinger
    3. I am trying to determine the nature of a family relationship (above and beyond a known business relationship) between Mannes ISRAEL (given name aka Magnus, Menc, Menz, M. Israel) and brothers Simon and Samuel ROSENBAUM, all originally of Pyrmont, Waldeck, Germany, and later of Kalamazoo, Michigan. Rosenbaum family lore has it that they were cousins, but a blood relationship has never been positively established. It is known that Israel, initially a peddler, was born on November 22, 1819, and came to the U.S. in 1841. In 1843, while traveling as a merchant, he became ill in Kalamazoo. and exhausted his financial resources. However, because he had established good credit in New York, he was able to remain in Kalamazoo and open a store…M. Israel Dry Goods...a large variety store that Israel owned and operated there. He died of cancer of the liver in Kalamazoo on October 22, 1868, at age 48. The store later became Rosenbaum & Speyer. The "Rosenbaum" was Simon. SIMON Rosenbaum, born April 13, 1832, emigrated from Pyrmont to Kalamazoo on August 25, 1855 to work for Mannes Israel. On February 27, 1865, he married Rieckchen Romberg; they had one child…a daughter, Emma….who died at age 13, ending his line. Simon died in Kalamazoo in 1905 at age 73. My great-grandfather, Simon's younger brother SAMUEL Rosenbaum, was born August 13, 1838, and, probably at his brother's persuasion, emigrated from Pyrmont on September 23, 1857. In about 1862, he married Henrietta "Jetchen" Cohn, originally of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, Germany. Samuel and Henrietta had six children, the eldest of whom was Louis, my grandfather. Samuel died in Kalamazoo on January 9, 1903, at age 64. Samuel settled first in Three Rivers, and didn't arrive in Kalamazoo until after the Civil War; he came to Kalamazoo in 1867 because his older brother, Simon, was already established there. Samuel was a peddler for ten years, and had been given a "grubstake" by either Simon or Mannes Israel to open a store in Three Rivers. When he had accumulated sufficient capital, he started the Henrietta Skirt Company (named after his wife, Henrietta Cohn ) -- later to become the Kalamazoo Pant Co. It has always been "understood" in the Rosenbaum family that the Rosenbaum brothers and M. Israel were cousins...even, perhaps, first cousins. Two of Samuel Rosenbaum's sons, in fact, were named Menz Israel Rosenbaum and Gottfried (known as "Goddie") Rosenbaum…the same names as Mr. Israel and the nickname of one of his sons. (A third Rosenbaum son was named Edwin.) A recent discovery has put the families even more closely allied -- as shown in the 1860 Federal Census, Simon (age 28 at the time) and Samuel (22) …neither yet married…were living in the house of which Israel (age 40) was the "head"! M. Israel is known to have married his first cousin, Tillie Israel. The family progenitor, Samuel Israel…1746-1827, had two sons…an earlier Mannes and Levy, and a daughter, Santel. That first Mannes married a Fredericka ELIAS, and had seven children, one of whom was a daughter, Tillie (1830-1908). Santel, who apparently also married a man surnamed Israel, was the mother of the Mannes/Magnus of whom I am inquiring.) Mannes and Tillie had five children. Although much is known of the Rosenbaum descendants, little is known of the Israels. One of Mannes and TIllie's children was Edward…the young (age 22) scientist/ astronomer who perished in the Greely Arctic Expedition in 1884. Edward had two brothers and two sisters. Gottwald "Goddie", born in Kalamazoo in February, 1864, never married, and died in New York in 1911 at age 47. Joseph, born in Kalamazoo in 1857, married (and later divorced) one Clara MERCHANT, and died in New York on April 14, 1909, at age 52. Joseph and Clara had two daughters…Edna, (born in 1885, never married and died in a New York sanitarium in 1913 at age 28), and Mignon, born in 1886, who married a man named HEIDENREICH. Nothing further is known of them. Edward's older sister was Lillie E. Israel, born in Kalamazoo in December, 1861. She married a New Yorker named Charles LOWENSTEIN in about 1864, and they had two children…a son, Edward Lowenstein, born in May, 1886, and a daughter (with an unknown but believed to had a Germanic given name) born in May, 1888. It is not known whether either of these children ever married or had issue. Edward's younger sister, Mollie, born in 1867 or 1868, married (in Kalamazoo) a New Yorker named Arthur J. MACK. Nothing further is known of this couple. Finally, there is another possible link between the families, albeit indirect. If this is read by any members of the OFENBERG, SPEYER, DESENBERG or CROCKET families of Kalamazoo, additional clues my evolve. It is possible that some member of the Israel family is still living in the Kalamazoo area, and could provide information that would lead to the link between the two families. I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who might help shed a ray of light on this matter. Thank you in advance for your assistance!
