Surnames: Bollheimer/Barva/Maloney Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/CYB.2ACE/182.243 Message Board Post: This lady was my Godmother. I want to find out how she ties in to the rest of our family by relation. I do know that my great grandparents were from Germany--their name, BARVA. I think perhaps BOLLHEIMER is also German and that the older generations might have know each other and intermarried. Nellie Margaret Bollheimer of Marion {IL}, a former Mt.Vernon resident, died at noon yesterday at the Missouri Pacific Hospital in St.Louis, MO. She was 71 years, etc. Miss Bollheimer was a retired agent for the Missouri Pacific Railroad. Miss Bollheimer was born Oct. 14, 1889 in Mt. Vernon, the daugher of John and Margaret [Maloney} Bollheimer. Survivors include three brothers: Leo Bollheimer of Mt.Vernon; Barnard Bollheimer of Toledo, Ohio; and Arthur Bollheimer of Marion IL. She was a catholic; a member of the St.Mary's Alter Society; and also a member of the American Legion. She is buried in St.Mary's Cemetary Mt. Vernon, IL. If any of this particial obituary sounds familier to anyone I would appreciate search help if possible. [email protected]
