Genealogy posts about the Deweese, Diaz, Ellis, Mosblech, and Zimmerman families.
Onlangs, 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 editie van de St. Louis Star-Times of my great grandparents and 12 of the 14 Mosblech children. I had never seen a picture of my great grandparents, Eduard
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. In 1909, Ollie would lose his mother, wanneer Mellie
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. Vaak geschreven als Edward, maar uitgesproken als het samenstellen van hulp en afdeling, Eduard was as unique as his name. Ik vond het lastig om veel over hem te schrijven vanwege de verhalen die ik over hem hoorde
Weken geleden, Ik was op zoek naar een exemplaar van Ivanhoe van Sir Walter Scott uit de oude bibliotheek van mijn grootvader. Opa GilbertP. Ellis had een bibliotheek die hij gaf me in het begin van de jaren 1990. Deze boeken en zijn bureau zijn schatten die bij me zal blijven tot de dag dat ik sterf. Als kind, Ik heb in de zijne gezeten
Gilford Dudley Story (1797 – 1870) is my third great-grandfather. There are six generations between the two of us. Ik heb onlangs informatie gevonden over de Story-familie, one of the branches of the family my research had not turned up as much information on. Voor de jaren, Ik kon mijn overgrootmoeder Dollie Zimmerman niet vinden
My great grandmother Lydia Margaret “Dollie” Story Zimmerman’s youngest sister Hattie May Story was born on August 20, 1896. Hattie was Dollie’s half-sister as she was the daughter of George Washington Story and his second wife Margaret Sweat. Dollie’s mother was George Story’s first wife Malinda Davis. Hattie's moeder Margaret stierf tijdens de geboorte van Hattie of stierf
Mijn stiefvader, Ernest C. Diaz, heeft mij grootgebracht, so I included his family in my genealogical research. Echter, Dad’s father, Joseph Diaz, emigreerde uit Mexico en zijn moeder Marie Moellenberg was een Amerikaan van de eerste generatie, geboren uit Duitse immigranten. Finding information on his family has not been easy. We weten dat de vader van Jozef Ulalio Diaz was en dat de geboortenaam van zijn moeder was
My second great-grandfather George Washington Story was born in August 1843 to Gilford Dudley Story and his second wife Nancy Jane Story nee Womack. George was born in Shawneetown, Gallatin County, Illinois, USA. He was the fourth of Dudley’s and Nancy’s nine children. George Washington Story married his first wife and my second great-grandmother Malinda Davis on November 26, 1863,
Many Zimmermans always believed my great-grandfather Parker L. Zimmerman was married five times. Echter, Parker was married three times to Victoria Harris, Mellie Bollinger and Lydia Margaret “Dollie” Verhaal. It was actually Parker’ sister-in-law Amanda Isabelle “Mandy” Verhaal, who was married five times. Mandy was born in Illinois on July 16, 1877 aan George Washington Story en Malinda Davis
Mijn grootvader Frank O. Zimmerman’s oldest brother was Robert Harold “Harry” Zimmerman. They had a four older half-brothers and sisters and a deceased half-sister but Harry was the first child of Parker L. Zimmerman en zijn derde vrouw Dolly. Opa zou geboren worden mei 28, 1913. Harry is een beetje een mysterie toen hij stierf rond de
