Do you know where the Trimborn family lived. There was a Trimborn family who lived in Milwaukee County in what is now the city of Greendale. They could have had a daughter Anna. You would be able to find the information at the Milwaukee County Historical Society Library. The phone is 414-273-8288. Good Luck.

I have a file here listing Waukesha County residents of the above surnames plus others. I think a few of you are researching the names so I am asking here. As anyone sent me a file with these names in? I didn't note the source and I don't want to post it without giving proper credit. Ellen- www.linkstothepast.com

I know several of you are researching the Gebhard family. I am posting these bios on the list so that anyone interested can find them. I will be adding the bios to my site this weekend. Ellen- www.linkstothepast.com CHARLES GEBHARD, born in Germantown, Washington county, Wis, Dec. 25, 1851, is the son of German parents, George and Margaret Gebhard. The father came to America in 1844, locating first at Brookville, and later at Germantown. After a short time he purchased a small form of 40 acres, which he made his home for the remainder of his life. His wife is also deceased. Charles received his education in the Germantown schools and remained at the parental home until he was about twenty-seven years of age. He then worked for himself purchasing his present farm of 60 acres in 1877. On this farm he has made all the improvements and now has a fine and well-equipped piece of property, upon which he expects to remain permanently. On Nov. 26, 1878, Mr. Gebhard married Miss Mary Miller(sic), a native of Menomonee township and daughter of Michael and Theresa Miller, both now living in Milwaukee. Mr. Miller was formerly a farmer, but has retired from active work. Nine children were bo! rn to Mr. and Mrs. Gebhard, viz.: Mary, who married Charles Wick, a mason, and resides in Fussville; the second child died in infancy; John, who is also a mason, resides in Fussville; Charles, resides in Milwaukee, and the younger children, George, Rosa, Frank, Sarah and William, are all at home with the parents. Mr. Gebhard is a Republican in his politics and is a member of the Catholic church at Fussville. GEORGE GEBHARD, JR., was born Jan. 5, 1863, on the farm where he now lives, and is the son of George Gebhard, Sr., and Lena (Brandmiller) Gebhard, both natives of Germany. The father immigrated to this county about 1840, worked for a short time in a brick yard in Milwaukee, and then came out to the town of Brookfield, to work on the dame which was built not far from Waukesha. He entered a claim of 40 acres of timber land and later bought 80 acres more. He married after coming to Brookfield, the ceremony being performed at the homestead, which was the home of both until the death of the mother in 1881. Mr. Gebhard remained on the farm until 1887, when he retired and made his home in the village of Elm Grove, until his death, Dec. 28, 1902, aged eighty-three years and nine months. Of their family of nine children, five are living. John, an engineer employed in the stone quarry, resides in Waukesha; Mary, wife of Nicholas Neure, Conrad and Matthew all reside in the town o! f Brookfield, as does George, the subject of this sketch. The last was brought up on the farm, receiving his education in the district school and the Catholic school at Elm Grove. He has always remained on the homestead, taking charge of the same upon his marriage at the age of twenty-three, and is now the owner of 120 acres of the original tract. General farming, dairying, raising of cattle and other livestock, occupy his attention, the milk from his herd of 12 cows being shipped to Milwaukee. In Jun 1886, Mr. Gebhard married Miss Anna Molador, who was born in Illinois and died in 1890, leaving one child, which died a short time after. In 1891, Mr. Gebhard contracted a second marriage with Miss Mary Etzel, to which union six children have been born, namely: Katie, William N., Lena, Josephine, Isabelle and Martha. MATTHEW GEBHARD, a prosperous farmer of Brookfield township was born on the family homestead adjoining the farm where he now lives. He is one of the nine children of George, Sr., and Lena (Brandmiller) Gebhard, and the next to the youngest of the fine now living. The father came to Waukesha county in 1840, being one of the pioneers of Brookfield township. Matthew, born April 8, 1859, received his elementary education in the district school and later attended the convent school at Elm Grove. Until he was twenty-eight years of age he remained at home, assisting in the work of the farm. Then, in preparation for his marriage, which occurred on Oct. 9, 1888, he purchased the farm of 120 acres where he now lives and to which was later added 40 acres adjoining. On this property Mr. Gebhard has built a handsome brick house, 46 by 56 feet, a fine barn, and has set out an orchard of apple, cherry, plum and pear trees, all of which are bearing. The farm supports a dairy herd, al! so some other live-stock, such as hogs, coarse-wool sheep, etc. The milk from the dairy is shipped to Milwaukee. Mr. Gebhard has operated a thresher every season for thirty-three years. Mrs. Gebhard, nee Mary Welfol, is a native of Brookfield township, born April 2, 1866. She was reared on the farm attended the district school and remained with her parents until her marriage. Ten children have been born into the Gebhard family, of whom nine are living, viz.: Frank, Joseph, Regina, Alexander, Seman, Mattie, Marie, Cecelia and Laurine. Thus far the children have been education the the home schools.

Gebhardts were close neighbors of my Brede / Bradee family in Brookfield. I would appreciate it if researchers into this family would contact me. We have a few photographs from the early 20th century, etc., that I think we could share. My great aunt Cora Bradee, an active single woman who kept a diary and snapshots of her daily life (few of the diaries survivie, unfortunately), did document some of the picnics, etc., at Gebhardts' Woods and with members of that wonderful local family.

This family also had a 5 yr old son named Leroy. This census was taken in January of 1920 and they were living at 711 School Street. Edna was born in Iowa, her father was born in Germany and her mother was born in Iowa. She was working as a bookeeper for the Railroad. The only other Edna Schroeder that I found in the whole US had been born in MN.
