Thanks all for the help. Kate is the head of the house in 1880. The family is in Ohio, Brown county, Ripley, ED16, T9_996 film, page 30. Kates parents are both from Germany and her husband is listed as being born on Bavaria. That's all I have on the family. I've looked for Kate and Charles in 1860 Ohio, Charles would be less than 1 yr. old, but with no luck there either. Thanks Again! ----Original Message Follows---- From: STRAUB-D-request@rootsweb.com Reply-To: STRAUB-L@rootsweb.com To: STRAUB-D@rootsweb.com Subject: STRAUB-D Digest V02 #8 Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2002 23:01:41 -0700 << message2.txt >> << message4.txt >> << message6.txt >> << message8.txt >> _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.
