These were from copies I made downtown at the library sometime ago. I should note that I don't believe these include ALL the churches in Hamilton Co., mostly in what was then the city of Cincinnati, although I did note there were some listed outside of even present day city limits, but I also noticed quite a few missing that were then as now outside Cincinnati limits. I'm not aware of any old phone directories in existence. It is possible the library has them, perhaps in which ever department it is that has phone directories from all over (or from there in the "stacks"). Might I also ask, if anyone has any old listings like this hiding in your stacks & piles of research, would you please consider transcribing them for the website so that others may also benefit from the information? You can contact me if you have anything or questions about submitting something you have. I figured that there would be at least somebody else interested in this 1891 listing besides me :-) Linda Boorom co-coordinator Hamilton Co.

Hello, In the most recent publication of the "Tracer" from the Hamilton County Genealogical Society, a list of the Deutsche Pionier Verein was posted, and an entry was noted for a Nicholas Allgeier of Gamshurst, Baden, as being a member of this organization, who was residing on Baymiller Street in Cincinnati I've got a large database of names of the families of Gamshurst Baden, and would like to know if there are any descendants or researchers out there of this man. Nicholas Allgeier did NOT appear on the listing of emigrants from Gamshurst, and appears to have left Gamshurst without permission, possibly? Nicholas Allgeier was born in 1858 son of Andreas Allgeier and Barbara Ganter of Gamshurst. Tim Allgeyer Cincinnati

Marilyn, thanks for the info! Very interesting! And thanks to everyone else who helped to answer my question. Phyllis <Original Message> www.va.gov My understanding is that they provide a free headstone, but there will be charges by the cemetery to place it.

Phyllis, The Veteran's Administration is the organization that provides free military markers. Check their web site for what they provide, cost, requirements, etc. www.va.gov I checked with them last year when my husband passed away. My understanding is that they provide a free headstone, but there will be charges by the cemetery to place it.

Actually, I think their service just has to be proven to entitle them to a headstone (note: this may not be completely without charge). Ann

Is it possible to get a death certificate for a grand parent from Hamilton County on request, or do I have to prove my relationship to that person?

Hello, all; Not sure if the information I have will help everyone, but we have done extensive research here in Osceola County Florida regarding Civil War Vets. It just happens there were many veterans of retirement age who came to the small town of St. Cloud, formed a Grand Army of the Republic Post in 1910, and stayed here the rest of their lives. We have a muster list of over 700 total over a period of some 30 years. Most of those veterans were buried right here in Mt. Peace Cemetery, but there were some who were shipped elsewhere to be buried in the family plot or a town gravesite where they had been when they entered service in the 1860's. As with all things -- their burial site may have been a matter of their choice. If it is at all possible to learn where he was residing at the time of death, make all efforts to get his death certificate, funeral record, obituary. One of those just might mention where the remains were to be buried. Of course, if the soldier died in battle or for other cause during the war service, there should be some record of a military cemetery burial through the VA or National Archives. And -- if you have a veteran ancestor who was entitled to a government headstone -- by all means contact the VA. It is still possible to get that military marker put on his grave - as long as you know where he's buried. Best wishes, Ann Bergelt Florida

Thanks Pat! I am wondering about the details, such as what kind of marker etc. and if it is only for Civil War vets or does it include earlier and later wars.

I noticed the simlarity of your Borgmann and my ancestor Maria(Marianna ) Boggermann/Boggemann. Have no success on LDS for my name(s).. Some records I checked @ St. Joseph Church on Linn St. Cinti(mostly german) shows: Baptisms: Johann ErnstBoggermann 6 Feb 1844-F: Mathias M: Eliz Tempe Johann Matthew Boggemann Mar 13 1848 F:Francis M: Anna Marie Macke Joannes Herman Henry Bogermann F: Henry M: Marianna Wacker. If any of this is relevant I also show Godparents-Marie Eliz. Bogggemann(ernst) Matthew Boggemann(J. matthew) H.H. Boemann(J. Hem.Henry) Good luck, by the way my ancestor Mary Anna/Marianna Borgmann/Boggermannn came from Hanover. I cannot trace her father or Mother. Regards _Loviti@aol.com_ (mailto:Loviti@aol.com)

I hope someone can be more helpful than I. However, my experience in finding that my great-great-grandfather had been in the Civil War is that it was strictly accidental. No family stories, no marker in the cemetery when I finally found where he was buried. (Buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Southgate, KY) He enlisted in 1861 in Hamilton County, was sent to Camp Dennison and served in the Band with the so called "German" outfit because the enlistees were all German speaking immigrants. He spent most of his time in the service in the hospital in Cincinnati having gotten sick from the poor food and cold wet sleeping conditions in Virginia. (I found this out from the nara records I sent for). So my advice is to look, as suggested below, at the nara.gov site and at the sites on Ancestry.Com that show records. Surely there will be a record somewhere of someone killed in action.

Thanks. Gene F >> - --------------------------------- Hi Gene, Did you get a reply for this request? Have you checked the www.nara.gov web site for information? I also searched back through the list's archives and found information that many Civil War Burials are at Spring Grove Cemetery and Wesleyan Cemetery. Have you checked their online burial records? The National Park Service also has a web site with information about those who served in the Civil War: http://www.itd.nps.gov/cwss/soldiers.htm I would welcome any other comments from list subscribers who are knowledgable about Civil War history and records, since my memory is a little fuzzy on that topic at the moment. Good Luck! Marilyn

Can someone help me locate an obituary or death record for Bernard Borgmann born August 28, 1848 in Germany. He immigrated with his wife, Mary in 1868 and settled in Cincinnati. He was lasted found in the 1900 census living at 1030 Wilstach St. in Cincinnati. In 1910, his wife Mary was listed as widow and head of the household. Her son George was the only remaining child in the home. Thanks, Ann
