Hello list-members, does anyone knowe something about St.Michael church in Chicago ? I have found in a notary document a paper, dated 08/23/1894 and written in German: " Legaler Heiraths=Schein Staat Illinois St. Michaelskirche Chicago, Cook County Hiermit wird bescheinigt dass: Herr Andreas Kasel mit Angela Riffinger am 31 ten des Monats Juli A.D. 1884, durch Rev. Peter Hellers in dieser St. Michaelskirche nach katholischem Ritus ehelich getraut und eingesegnet wurde. Chicago dn August 23 ten 1894 Rev. Adam Herz. C.SS.R. " Rector I knowe the St. Michael church was the favorite church for people that came from Trier region. The written Andreas Kasel was a native of Herforst near Trier. Does anyone knows the family Riffinger ?
