She and husband Conrad SCHMIDT were in Texas in 1846. Among family photos was one of a Jacob ROTH family in Benson, Woodford Co., Illinois. Four children were Louis, Anna, Martha and Elcie. The 1800 Census shows Jacob,25, Mary, 21 and children Louis, 1, and Anna, 7/12. Christian Roth, 56 shown as Father. Jacob, Mary and kids b. Illinois, father in Prussia. (Census says all four of parents b. Prussia). Would be glad to hear from you if you think there might be any connections. Regards, Doris Kirschke Brown kirschke@atlantic.net
