Catherine, Oldenburg is a state in Germany up near Denmark neighboring Schleswig-Holstein. There is also a city of Oldenburg. Could "Les viesel" have been someone's attempt at a contraction for Schleswig-Holstein? There is also an Oldenburg in Schlewig-Holstein itself. Prussia seems like too much of an inclusive term, but then Prussia was growing and could have had claims on Oldenburg by 1870. Check some historical maps of Prussia. I doubt it was Baden and Wuerrtemburg--too far south. I'd go with the most contemporaneous information which seems to be the 1860 census.

Hello, I was told about an Almack reunion that goes on every year in New Castle township, Coshocton county, Ohio and I would like some information on that please. I am an Coshocton county Almack descendant myself and would like to connect with other Almack's.

Hello, Could someone help with this? My great-great-great grandfather JOHN WIGGERS and his wife CATHERINE change their birth places over the years. I feel very foolish asking for help with this, but have been squinting at maps for quite a while and have not come to a conclusion. JOHN 1860: Oldenburgh (?), Germany CATHERINE 1860: Les Viesel (?) John 1880: Prussia CATHERINE (appears as SASHA) 1880 Prussia Also in 1880, their married daughter Doretta lists her parents as be in born in: (Father) Baden (Mother) Wurttenburgh. If this helps, John was a piano maker who probably came to the states no later than 1850. My grandmother claims that he built the first upright piano in the United States, but that is obviously hogwash. Can anyone interpret these different answers? What is Les Weisel and where might it be? Also, any help with the Wiggers name would be wonderful. ( I am sheepishly admiting this, but these Wiggers did not live in Cuyahoga.

This isn't a complete solution, but I think you can come up with one if you do a Save As from Excel with type "Formatted Text (space delimited) (*.prn)." Rollie

I see that the list I put here for the 1915 East High book came out a jumbled mess. I switched from a Word document to Excel saving both as a text document and then cutting and pasting into my email. The word document appears to be a better format but since I've been requested to put it into an Excel format for later posting on a website I changed. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can use Excel and post it here without it losing all of the formatting? Thanks, Char

Hi Frank; I found several class pictures of Catherine, not individual but hopefully you can pick her out. It appears that she played in the Orchestra, second violin which might help you find her. Do you want those pictures as well? Just don't want to overwelm your mailbox. Let me know.

I am wondering if there is a site for Directories of a later date? like the early years of 1900? thank you for any info. you can give me. Try Distant Cousins they have odd years and places. Ancestry has some later one but they are heavy in 1890 and the 1860s Eliz

If you see (& surname) it means that two surnames were listed together on the same line -- most likely a business. The one in parentheses is listed with the one above it. There may or may not be multiple entries for the surnames with no parentheses, but there is only one entry for the surname in parentheses where it appears in the listing -- probably out of order.
