On his declaration of intention on file in Winnebago Cnty., Wi. he indicates last foreign address was Schottland, Germany, indicates b. 9 June 1864. My ggrandmother Anna married a Carl Jeske after death of 1st. husband Albert Domke. She & Carl Jeske both buried in Eureka Cemetery, Winnebago Cnty., Wi. My quest is for anyone who might have info. on this Carl Jeske to further give me lead to my ggrandmother Anna Domke Jeske.

In the Monroe Co Wisconsin Heritage Book, family 1368 mentions an Adeline Geshke marrying Frank Satona in 1904 Welington Township. This might be a relative and another spelling for you. I have nothing else so far.
