No, was Elmer one? Yes, Jennie was adopted, she was the daughter of Sarah Jane Saliisbury. I may have another wrong one too as I didn't include Glen and I think Glen and Fred were brothers.

Who, knows, he may have gone for a visit and found he loved her. That is what I would lean to in the case of Andrew Kraeger and Caroline Lehn. Our Hess ancestors were from Greig, not all that far from Constableville, but quite a distance in horse and buggy days. John Hess married Catherine Salomon Hess. John was born in 1771 and Catherine in 1771. Both are buried in Sand Cemetery. Alexander was a son of John and Catherine. He was born in Schohaire County, NY., Feb. 28, 1826. Alexander Hess married Ann Higby.Hess. Ann was born Feb, 8th, 1835 and died March 13, 1903. Both are buried in Sand Cemetery. They had five children: Fred J. Clayton Martin F. Jennie Lettie Lettie married an Adams first then my grandfather Albert. Ann Higby had a brother Martin F. Higby, who died in Andersonville prison, after being captured at Bryce's Crossroads Battle in Mississippi. I think that their 3rd child, Martin F. was named after him.

My LEHN family came from Kirrlach, Karlsruhe Kries, Baden, Germany in 1853 and settled in Fish Creek, near Mohawk Hill. The connection to the Hess family and the Kraeger family happened when, Mary Ana Hess, d/o Joseph (b.1814) and Barbara (Hushaw) Hess, married Andrew Kraeger in 1861. My Lehn family connects to the Kraeger family through the marriage of Caroline Lehn to Andrew Kraeger, s/o Andrew and Mary (Hess) Kraeger, in 1893. The Lehns moved from the Constableville area about 1870, some of them stopping off in Iowa for a couple years before they all ended up in southwestern Nebraska by 1879. It's still a bit of a mystery to me as to why, after the Lehns departed Lewis County in 1870, that Andrew Kraeger journeyed to Nebraska 13 years later to marry Caroline Lehn when she was 18 and he was 28 - they would have been 5 and 15 at the time the Lehns moved from NY.

No, if you mean Heidelberg. I was very much impressed with the museum inside the castle and how the tied medicine to religion. I found it very interesting. I also wondered how the built the castle without all the modern equipment we have today. Dick In a message dated 2/25/2010 12:16:35 A.M.

Well, I only spent about three months total in Germany, including three trips there. I was working, but every week end I would head out to a different place. I visited Munich twice, Cologne (German spelling Koln), Heidelberg, Strousburg, France, across the Rhine River from Baden Baden, the Black Forest, Rothenberg, numerous small towns and some that I forget the name of. Germany is a very pretty country. Dick In a message dated 2/25/2010 12:08:40 A.M.

Thank you for the offer Dick, but my connection to the Hess family is quite removed from my direct lines, and I don't think I want to pursue the Hess family any further. My LEHN family came from Kirrlach, Karlsruhe Kries, Baden, Germany in 1853 and settled in Fish Creek, near Mohawk Hill. The connection to the Hess family and the Kraeger family happened when, Mary Ana Hess, d/o Joseph (b.1814) and Barbara (Hushaw) Hess, married Andrew Kraeger in 1861. My Lehn family connects to the Kraeger family through the marriage of Caroline Lehn to Andrew Kraeger, s/o Andrew and Mary (Hess) Kraeger, in 1893. The Lehns moved from the Constableville area about 1870, some of them stopping off in Iowa for a couple years before they all ended up in southwestern Nebraska by 1879. It's still a bit of a mystery to me as to why, after the Lehns departed Lewis County in 1870, that Andrew Kraeger journeyed to Nebraska 13 years later to marry Caroline Lehn when she was 18 and he was 28 - they would have been 5 and 15 at the time the Lehns moved from NY. Guess that's what keeps family history interesting. -------------------------------------------------- From: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 9:35 PM To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [NYLEWIS] NYLEWIS Digest, Vol 5, Issue 1 > OKay, what Hess ancestors are you looking for?

OKay, what Hess ancestors are you looking for? Alexander Hess and his wife are buried in Sand Cemetery and they were some of the first settlers in Lewis County.

Go figure! And another thing I'm just discovering - there are several Fish Creek Roads in the area - not necessarily connected. Anyway, that is not the St Peter - St Paul Cemetery I'm looking for.

I see where Kirrlach, Germany is just south and a little east of Heidelberg, Germany. I used to love going down to Heildelberg from Frankfurt, it is very beautiful. Dick In a message dated 2/24/2010 6:16:43 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: Kirrlach, Germany

As I said before... very interesting the way all those families fit together, but then we find the same situation in many areas where the same families lived side by side for many generations. When I was originally researching these families, it reminded me of the old TV program "Payton Place". Several of the families came from Kirrlach, Germany where they had lived side by side for many generations. Then a few of them picked up and ended up in southwest Nebraska. All quite interesting and quite unlike the families of today, moving every time the rent comes due ;-) -------------------------------------------------- From: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 1:51 PM To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [NYLEWIS] NYLEWIS Digest, Vol 5, Issue 1 > Jim, a lot of those families are also connected to the Wilbert-Urtz > families,which means they can be interned in any cemetery named St.Mary's( > Prussian settlement cemetery) & (Rome,Herkimer,Utica,and other cemeteries > such as > ...the one on the hill in Ilion...also in West Leyden cemetery, as well > as > Boonville cemetery > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message >

Jim, a lot of those families are also connected to the Wilbert-Urtz families,which means they can be interned in any cemetery named St.Mary's( Prussian settlement cemetery) & (Rome,Herkimer,Utica,and other cemeteries such as ...the one on the hill in Ilion...also in West Leyden cemetery, as well as Boonville cemetery

I notice on the web site they are calling the road out of Greig, the Lyons Falls Rd., not River Rd. Also, Sand Cemetery is off from that road on what is called Cemetery Rd. It is just before you get to the Fish Creek Rd. and it branches off from the Lyons Falls Rd. towards the River. Fish Creek branches off the Lyons Falls Rd. going towards Brantingham, in the opposite direction. Dick In a message dated 2/24/2010 9:33:33 A.M.

Sand is one of the oldest cemeteries in Lewis County and has a number of my ancestors including Moyers, Hess, Marmon, Adams, and others. To get to Sand Cemetery you need to lift the gate across the dirt road leading off the River Rd., going towards the Black River. Lock the gate and go about 500' down and you come to the cemetery. It has about 3-400 graves in it. As the whole area is sandy, some people may think it was named for that, it is not.

I'm beginning to understand why I'm confused. When I first looked at Google maps, the road south from Greig was labeled River Rd. I followed it south to Cemetery Road and just a little west, they showed Sand Cemetery. When I changed the view on Google maps from the road map view to the satellite view, it showed a very nice color image of the cemetery and the area, BUT... at that time, the label for River Road changed to Lyons Falls Road. Go figure! And another thing I'm just discovering - there are several Fish Creek Roads in the area - not necessarily connected. Anyway, that is not the St Peter - St Paul Cemetery I'm looking for. The one I'm looking for would be in the area west or south and west of Constableville. The families I'm researching are well represented in the St Michael's Cemetery; Kraeger/ Kroeger, Croniser, Domser, Geiskopf, Hess, Hoffert, Houck, Kirk, Messerschmidt, Nellenbach, Radel, Samson, Seelman, Sins, Zimmer, and others not listed. The families I'm searching also include the following that have burials in the **St Paul - St Peter** Cemetery that I'm looking for the location of; Nellenbach, Mathis, Seelman, Croniser, Domser, Lane, Bernholtz, Samson, Hoffert, Seelman, Kirk, and others. Many of the same surnames listed in the St Michael's Cemetery. Amazing how all these families tie together.

Thanks Karen. I see where you have transcribed St Michael"s cemetery for Interment Net. On behalf of the genealogy community - Thank You for your services. Could you please tell me approximately WHERE on Fish Creek Road the St Peter St Paul cemetery is located? USGS GNIS gives me a location of St Peter's Cemetery - looks like it's about a mile or two north of Constableville on hwy 26. Then, when I look at Findagrave.com, they show this to be St Paul's Cemetery but do not list any interments. Findagrave.com also shows a St Peters and St Pauls cemetery at Turin, with 6 burials listed. I'm now totally bewildered. Nothing new for me. Guess I need to try to find a copy of Charles Gray's book on the history of Brantingham, second edition, as suggested by Luella. Thanks to all who responded.

My Great Uncle, Harvey Beals, a Civil War veteran, is buried in Arlington Cemetery. The Wheelock Beals family lived on Fish Creek Road, Greig. Charles Gray's book on the history of Brantingham, second edition, contains detailed information on cemeteries in the area.
