Posted on: GreenLake Co. Wi Obits Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wi/GreenLakeObits/10085 Surname: Gehrke, Fallis ------------------------- Gary--I am researching a GEHRKE family that lived in Langelade County Wisconsin. My ggrandfather Charles Gehrke, sr, was born in 1852 in New York to German-born parents. We believe their roots were in Hanover. Charles married Charlotte Rosanna Fallis from Milbrooke, Cavan Township, Upham County, Ontario. The couple was married 22 years on the 1900 Wisconsin census, but Charlotte indicates she has only lived in the United States for 18 years so I believe they lived in Canada for a period of time. Perhaps Charles' family moved to Canada from New York and never left there. I do not know if Charles or Rosanna had any siblings. They had many children most of whom were born in Langelade County, but I am not sure where the oldest children were born; that would include my grandfather. Can you make any connection anywhere? So many thanks in advance.

Wi Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Wi/GreenLake/10373 Surname: Jones ------------------------- My grandparents Richard and Florence VANALLEN Jones lived in the town of Kingston, Green Lake County, WI. Both are buried in Green Lake County. I have a date of birth as October 26, 1866 in Sommershire, England for Richard. I have his naturalization papers dated October 7, 1886. I have little information about Richard--feel that he traveled a bit before settling in Wisconsin, may have spent time in Colorado with an uncle or brother. I know he had at least one brother in or close to Kingston, no idea of his name--have a snapshot of Grandmother Florence Jones and her 'sister-in-law' Alice. Any information about Richard Jones or this family will be much appreciated!
