Genealogy posts about the Deweese, Diaz, Ellis, Mosblech, and Zimmerman families.
Nyligen, 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 upplagan av 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. I 1909, Ollie would lose his mother, när 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. Ofta skriven som Edward men uttalas som att sätta ihop hjälpmedel och avdelning, Eduard was as unique as his name. Jag kämpade med att skriva mycket om honom eftersom berättelserna jag hörde om honom
Veckor sedan, Jag letade efter en kopia av Ivanhoe av Sir Walter Scott från min farfars gamla bibliotek. Morfar 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, Jag brukade sitta i hans
Gilford Dudley Story (1797 – 1870) is my third great-grandfather. There are six generations between the two of us. Jag har nyligen kunnat hitta information om familjen Story, one of the branches of the family my research had not turned up as much information on. För år, Jag kunde inte hitta min gammelmormor Dollie Zimmerman nee
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. Hatties mamma Margaret dog antingen när hon födde Hattie eller gick bort
Min styvfar, Ernest C. Diaz, uppfostrade mig, so I included his family in my genealogical research. Emellertid, Dad’s father, Joseph Diaz, emigrerade från Mexiko och hans mor Marie Moellenberg var en första generationens amerikan född av tyska immigranter. Finding information on his family has not been easy. Vi vet att Josefs far var Ulalio Diaz och hans mors födelsenamn var
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. Emellertid, Parker was married three times to Victoria Harris, Mellie Bollinger and Lydia Margaret “Dollie” Story. It was actually Parker’ sister-in-law Amanda Isabelle “Mandy” Story, who was married five times. Mandy was born in Illinois on July 16, 1877 till George Washington Story och Malinda Davis dock
Min farfar 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 och hans tredje hustru Dolly. Morfar skulle födas maj 28, 1913. Harry är lite av ett mysterium när han dog runt om
