Comments:
None of my people were from Baden. Jaeschke in this group from Danzig. Vogels from Bohemia.
Did August Seil know the Dohrmans in Joliet. Why can't I find them on the ILLINOIS census.
Alvina should have at least been born in time for the census. Did the Frotschers meet there prior. I think so. I read that Dohrman's ran an elevator. What was Wlm. Seil's occupation. He might have worked for some large Farmers in the area maybe those who were on his naturalization papers. There is a Farmers Directory. Did Dohrmann or Frotschers declare citizenship in Illinois or in Iowa.? what was the Immigration year?

- I looked up Viola, Illinois, and noted that they have had a Threshers reunion. This is Not the first time Threshers have been mentioned lately! I hope you will visit the village on line and see the beautyful old thresher. I did find the Neirs on a census.

Thoughts
- Bertha and McKinley in Montana. Interesting in the light of my research about the Fehrings in the gold mining towns. For curiosity sake, I should check census for the two.
At this time I have been wondering why the decision to move to Paton and Farnhamville Iowa. Who decided first and what promted this.
Even for William Seil at Joliet, did he go to Iowa because these people did. If he knew that John Seil family there at Joliet then he may have learned of Fred Schroeder. Or he knew Fred from back home in Germany Dahlenburg and Nahrendorf. Fred heard about Fred Meyer at Highland area in Greene county.
- Where was the Krugs from?

Well thanks for stopping in. You saw a quite a bit of Family History. A little speculation and questions. Come back soon.

Genealogy Gold - and Family History about Grote, Naefke, Meyer Family Additions

Hello;

I Have more Family History info for you on the Grote family related to me by Mark Kuhlmann.

There are 2 more siblings of Adele Grote Naefke Meyer. Frank Grote - Born Nov 1893 in Farnhamville, Iowa - Died and buried there in 1954. Then the youngest Grote - Paul Grote - born Feb 1895 in Randolph, Arkansas. Paul Grote's Canadian Immagrtion Papers dated 24 Feb 1924 went to Red Deer, Canada. From there he went on to Alaska to find his brother Carl ( went to Canada not long after their moving to Arkansas). After communicating with my brother Marvin Kuhlman, Marvin told me while he was stationed in Alaska with the U.S. Army as a Dentist ( late 1940's ), he tried to find Paul Grote, since they were related,............. Marvin said Paul had a gold claim and ............ the search for Paul Grote has stopped there. If your interested, Emma Grote married Frank Daniel Wenck of Glidden, Iowa. I have a pic of my parents ( Elmer and Amanda Kuhlman ) with the Wenck's on their farm in Glidden, Iowa. I've probably forgotten to add somethig but if and or when I remember, I'll send you something.

That information above is the email letter received this last December from Mark Kuhlmann about Grote, Naefke, and Ahrens. So, I will make some necessary corrections in my previous post. I will add on his information to the little that I have written here. I know, I know, I need to get busy and add more from clippings and notes.

Remember - Adele Grote also married William Meyer.

If you relatives and readers have any questions I should post to him, let me know. I certainly take my time in thinking of question I should be asking. So I can use all the help I can get, as they say.

Psst. psst. - I watch the Gold rush show religiously on the Discovery channel. I have been wondering where abouts the gold claim in Alaska could be for Paul Grote. I'll have to see if anything is shown on the census.
Just me Jo.

Translation with babelfish:

1. Meyer, Johann Jürgen, Harmstorf 2nd 17. 05. 1824 7. New York over Hamburg 8.
shortly after Whitsuntide 1853 10. Jürgen travels with Schulz.

The families from Harmstorf, especially Meyer are important to me because of the Steinhauer and Reinecke family in Sueschendorf and Oldendorf bei Nahrendorf and the Goehrde. I am always remembering the Genzel tree which had Meyer from Harmstorf and Walmsburg.

So that's it for the day, minus editing I do a lot. I have been searching all the little villages on the AIDA emigration site. So you know now, there is more to come.
Just me Jo.

Genealogist Dealing with a Separation of Marriage Partners.

I Happily posted about a marriage of a family member. Now I hear they have separated under unhappy circumstances. I was kind of wondering how you other genealogists deal with your publication of these relatives.

I shall have to see what I come up with before I mention anything more about it.
Comment here if you like.
