    3. Re the roll call: Can anyone tell me if Industry has always been in Austin County, or is/was part of it ever in Fayette County? All my information (see below) is that my family came to Austin County in 1859. However, I have a Soc. Sec. application which indicates that an uncle was born in Industry, Fayette County and I have been unable to find the family in Austin County census records. Is it possible that Industry was used as a mailing address for some families that actually lived in Fayette County? Re the Roll Call request: I am researching the BREIHAN family: Heinrich Breihan (my ggrandfather), b. June 15 1807 in Hannover, d. January 13, 1897; wife, Christine BUNSE, b. March 26, 1819 in Germany, d. February 19, 1868. Children: H. A. (Henry Andreas), b. July 21, 1856, d. May 19, 1927; Mari, b. June 6, 1853, d. November 11, 1930; August E., b. May 29, 1863, d. May 17, 1936; Wilhelm H., b. June 10, 1859, d. March 25, 1939. H. A. (my grandfather) is buried in Bartlett -- all the others are buried in Industry. New Homes in New Lands indicates that the family sailed on the Adolphine in late 1859 and settled in Austin County. Have been unable to find any information on the Adolphine and the ship is not listed in any immigration or passenger lists I have found. Thanks much for any information.
