Can anyone give me birth and death, places and dates for Sophronia McGahn? I am related to her through her daughter, Huldah. Susan

I see there are alot of people researching the surname McGhan.. Sophronia Ann McGhan was my g-g-grandmother.. Her daughter Huldah Sophronia was my g-grandmother.. Are there any connections out there?

everyone just in case ok? not saying i personally emailed any of you in a long time, but in case i did, check puters for blackstone trojan......as I had it and i just finally got rid of it......very dangerous.....makes your computer open to spyware......if you downloaded a program called imesh and that comes with bonzai buddy. get rid of BOTH programs......they are what got me in a big mess........ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mari" <ddmmjm@netins.net> To: <WIGRANT-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 19, 2002 11:02 PM Subject: Re: [WIGRANT] My inquiry about FTM > The reason that I posted the request that the software questions be done at > the software boards, or the software list, is because there IS a list for > that particular area of concern.

Dave, Thank you for the census information. I do think this in my family. They were not in Grant County in 1850 or 1860. By 1860 they have settled in Jackson Co. Ks. Wanda

I am researching the BERTRAND surname, more specifically, Theodore BERTRAND and his wife Kathryn KELNHOFER. Theodore was born 12 April 1882 in Walhain, Kewaunee Co., WI. He died 2 June 1921 at Lancaster Hospital in Grant County. Theodore and his wife apparently worked at cheese factories there, it is presumed that they went to Grant County somewhere around the turn of the century. Anybody with any information about this particular family--please let me know. Thanks Trina Rabida Kewaunee, WI trina@itol.com

The reason that I posted the request that the software questions be done at the software boards, or the software list, is because there IS a list for that particular area of concern. Yes, it is genealogy related to a degree, but there ARE lists specifically for them. At 09:00 PM 2/19/02 , Tammie Shelton wrote: >Apparently I'm not supposed to ask questions about FTM >on this list.

Wanda, The 1855 Grant Co. Census index lists the following: Lutze, J., Wingville Township, Pg. 2 Lutze, W., Wingville Township, Pg. 2 Could this be your John and William? Unfortunately, the 1855 census only includes number of males and females in the household. No further information is listed. No sign of either of them in 1850 or 1860 Grant Co. Dave Taft

Lesa, Good question. I had no idea where Albert was buried. I see the way your are....Ha!...you made me do some additional looking on my GGG Aunt Mary Jane. Mary Jane (McGhan) Groshong died in Stanford, Judith Basin, MT on 4 Aug 1898. Albert was still living at the time. Albert died 26 Jul 1909. His death is recorded in Grant Co. death records, Bk. 11, Pg. 270. Also recorded in the 28 Jul 1909 issue of the Fennimore Times per "Highlights of The Times Review, alias Fennimore Times, 1900-1909," compiled by Cheryl D. Lemanski. His death record indicates that he was divorced. More looking found that he married a third time after Mary Jane's death. Based on tonight's review, here is all I "now" know about Albert Ross Groshong: Albert Ross Groshong, b. ABT 1853, (son of Valentine Groshong and Eliza Ferry). He married (1) Augusta Bell Latham, 12-Oct-1886, in Montfort, Grant, WI, b. ABT 1855, (daughter of Lorenzo Latham and Orlintha ____) d. 26-Oct-1887, Grant Co., WI. He married (2) Mary Jane McGhan, 13-Mar-1889, in Grant Co., WI, b. 22-Jul-1849, Fennimore, Grant, WI, (daughter of Silas S. McGhan and Mary Ann Potter) d. 04-Aug-1898, Stanford, Judith Basin, MT. He married (3) Sarah Elizabeth Ferris, 12-May-1904, in Grant Co., WI, (daughter of John Ferris and Mary Stevens). Albert died 26-Jul-1909, Montfort, Grant, WI. An Albert Groshong is listed in the 1880 Highland, Iowa, WI census, age 26, born in Wisconsin living with a Jane Groshong. Albert is listed as Jane's stepson. Albert's marriage to Augusta Bell Latham on 12 Oct 1886 is recorded in Grant Co. marriage records, Bk. 10, Pg. 369. His marriage to Mary Jane McGhan on 13 Mar 1889 is recorded in Grant Co. marriages, Bk. 11, Pg. 62. His marriage to Sarah Elizabeth (Ferris) Dale is recorded in Grant Co., marriages, Bk. 13, Pg. 208. Albert's death recorded in Grant Co. death records, Bk. 11, Pg. 270. His death record indicates he was divorced. Also recorded in the 28 Jul 1909 issue of the Fennimore Times per "Highlights of The Times Review, alias Fennimore Times, 1900-1909," compiled by Cheryl D. Lemanski. Augusta: Augusta's death is recorded in Grant Co. WI deaths, Bk. 2, Pg. 90. Mary: Moved to Stanford, MT in October 1894. Had no children. Sarah: Per Sarah's marriage record to Albert R. Groshong, she was previously married to a Mr. Dale. She married John M. Dale on 23 Dec 1886 in Iowa Co., WI, recorded in State Vol. 3, Pg. 58. Her third marriage to Matthew Peacock is recorded in Grant Co. marriage Bk. 18, Pg. 626. Children by Augusta Bell Latham: i Augusta Arabell Groshong, b. 26-Oct-1887, Wingville Twp., Grant, WI. She married Ernst Schondt/Schoudt, 6-Oct-1906, in Grant Co., WI. Birth record per Grant Co. births, Vol. 2, No. 227. Marriage record per Grant Co. marriages, Bk. 13, Pg. 208. Also recorded in the 18 May 1904 issue of the Fennimore Times newspaper per "Highlights of The Times Review, alias Fennimore Times, 1900-1909," compiled by Cheryl D. Lemanski. There may have been other children of Albert, but this is the only one I located. I presume that Albert Groshong is buried in Grant Co. Quite possibly in the Fennimore Prairie cemetery. You would need to check in the Grant Co. Genealogical Society's cemetery records to be sure. His obituary in the Fennimore Times may also list where he is buried. Okay, where he was buried really was "your" question, but you provided many answers for me tonight. So glad you brought this up. Now I know a little more about Mr. Groshong. Hopefully this provided you a few new things as well. Here is a photo of Albert and Mary Jane (McGhan) Groshong: http://members.cowtown.net/dtaft/Mcghanalbum1.html How are you related to Uncle Albert?? Dave Taft

These three surnames are among those listed in Tammie Shelton's signature. They also appear in my Napp/Knapp database. Carl J. Kreul married Mildred A. Bailie in Lancaster on August 18, 1941. Hattie Pierce (daughter of Charles Edwin Pierce) married Fred Leon Knapp in Dubuque on October 22, 1915. I have the following Roesches, connected one way or another to the Napp/Knapp lines: Brenda Ella Gary Philip Regina Robert =============== Always use real butter. =============== Mary Thiele Fobian Writer/Editor Pacific Grove, CA

Apparently I'm not supposed to ask questions about FTM on this list. I'm new to genealogy and I didn't realize that we had to stick to surnames only. Everyone on this list seems so helpful that I thought it would be a good place to start. Sorry. By the way, what does Rural Route 1 popcorn have to do with genealogy? ===== Researching Surnames - BAEHR, BELLAMY, CASHMAN, DARLING, HOLFORD, KREUL, MILLER, MONTGOMERY, PIERCE, ROESCH, WILKE. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Speaking of Sophronia McGahn--her sister Mary Jane married Albert Ross Groshong. Does anyone have info on Albert, especially where he is buried?

Hi Dave, Sophronia McGahn is my 4th gt aunt. Jane McLimans who married Lewis Fry is my 4th gt grandmother. Niki

Can someone check the 1855 Grant County census for John and William K. Lutz? Thank you, Wanda

What I do know is that Godfried is my Great Great Great Grandfather. They Started in Winsonsin then to Iowa and then Kansas. I have a relative that I met by mistake that is from the Kansas Line. After researching found out that John my great twice and Hyegar his great twice where sons under Godfried. Maybe we can exchange family trees and try to fill any missing gaps. By the way, my Granddad's name was Anton "Tony" son of Adolph.... Let's keep in touch. This would be a great piece of and interesting heritage. Lynne
