Nice to hear from you Caroline. I would love to have some more family photos. Mary’s husband Ray was so generous to share some with me a few years back and it was so nice to get acquainted with some of the family I didn’t know.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.
My Grandmother Rose’s maiden name is “Schell” not sure of the spelling. I believe they came from Hays, Kansas but I’m not 100% sure. I do know that my Grandfather Aloysius “Al or Alvin” for short had siblings named Anna, Theodore “Red” was a nickname. Any help or information you might have would be appreciated. Thank You

Hello Brad – I am the youngest daughter of Glen & Corrine Gettis. My name is Caroline. Your Father and your Uncle are my cousins, so you are my second cousin. I have 2 sisters, Edith & Glenda and 1 brother, Jerry (Jerome), all still living. I will be happy to share some family photos with you. Just give me some time to hunt them down and I can forward them to your email address. It may take me a while, but I promise I will.
Caroline

Yvette,

Adam A. Pfeifer and Helen Sack had the following surviving children at the time of his death in 1934. “Surviving members of the family are Mrs. Pfeifer, the widow, and these children: Arthur Charles, Benigna, Leland, Harold, Adam, Jr., and Theresa.” This taken from the Ellis County News 22 Feb, 1934 in an article detailing Adam’s passing along with his two sons, William and Gilbert, after they froze to death during a blizzard in Hays, Kansas. This doesn’t sound like the right family. Do you know Rose’s maiden name and what town in Kansas they came from?

looking for Anna Braun who married Michael Schwefel. Naturalization indicates they were from Dehlar but Brent Mai found a Schwefel in a colony just north of Dehlar called Reinwald. My husband’s mother was born in Baku on the mouth of the Volga. Speculation is they went down there due to the oil.
Do you have any info. on these two families?

I am interested in this line. Harold L. Montgomery was married to my Grandmother, Lola McTiggert Bogle. I have many memories going to their home as a child in Bluffton. I have a few pictures that I am willing to scan and share. I have heard stories about Pa Harold’s father and would like to to know more about his family.
