1909 foi provavelmente o pior ano da vida de Parker Lonzo Bator Zimmerman. Ele perdeu tanto a sua 10 meses filha de Ida May Zimmerman e sua segunda esposa Mellie Bollinger Zimmerman. Antes da morte de Parker, no Cabo Giraurdeau Tornado de 1949, he would bury two more of his children. Both of them were adults. I can only imagine how hard 1909
Em novembro 1908, three bishops and an abbot dedicated St. Francis de Sales Church, “the Cathedral of South St. Louis”. Built to serve the growing German Catholic population in St. Louis, the huge church would become the home to many families including my great grandparents, Eduard and Magdalena Mosblech, and their 14 children. O St. A Arquidiocese de Louis dedicou a igreja
Recently, I was searching for information about my Great Uncle Francis’ marriage to my Great Aunt Rosemary Kalt. What I discovered was an unexpected genealogy treasure, a picture in the July 5 edição do St. Louis Star-Times of my great grandparents and 12 of the 14 Mosblech children.

Ollie J. Zimmerman was the third son born to my great-grandfather Parker L. Zimmerman and his second wife Mollie Bollinger. Ollie and his twin sister Dollie were born on either April 27, 1906 or April 27, 1907. Since Ollie’s headstone says “1906”, I’m going with April 27, 1906 as his birthdate. Em 1909, Ollie would lose his mother, quando Mélia

Eduard Mosblech is my maternal great-grandfather. Eduard was born in St. Louis, Missouri on October 24, 1884, to German immigrants Gustave Mosblech and Bertha Mosblech nee Monse. Muitas vezes escrito como Edward, mas pronunciado como juntar ajuda e proteção, Eduard was as unique as his name. Tive dificuldade em escrever muito sobre ele porque as histórias que ouvi sobre ele
Weeks ago, I was looking for a copy of Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott from my grandfather’s old library. Grandpa Gilbert P. Ellis had a library that he gave me in the early 1990s. These books and his desk are treasures that will stay with me until the day I die. As a kid, I used to sit in his
Gilford Dudley Story (1797 – 1870) is my third great-grandfather. There are six generations between the two of us. Recentemente consegui encontrar informações sobre a família Story, one of the branches of the family my research had not turned up as much information on. Durante anos, Não consegui encontrar minha bisavó Dollie Zimmerman nee
Last Monday, I was able to scratch a big item off my bucket list. I attended a Liverpool Football Club game in person. Liverpool FC came to my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri on August 1, 2016 to play a preseason game with AS Roma. My daughter Caity attended the match with me, which made the day extra special. Eu
Hoje, Tam and I will be married twenty years. Infelizmente, life in Missouri is 20 anos, so I hope she doesn’t want to apply for parole. I’m hoping she decides to keep me around for a few more years.
