1 1920 census lists Angelo and Caroline Rosso as married, living with Angelo's daughter Lillian (27) and Granddaughter Esther (6). Though Lillian Weber is listed as married, her husband is not present.

A Lillian C Weber Delaney died in St Louis in 1929, but she was born Lillian Weber (dau. of Wm Weber) in 1896 - not a match.
 
Rosso, Lillian (I1627)
 
2 A 2 Feb 1923 newspaper article (unknown newspaper) about the distribution of property in his will states that he gave everything to his brothers, sisters, nieces & nephews, and to charity; this indicates that he almost certainly had no spouse or children surviving at the time of his death. Jacobi, Anton (I340)

6 Bertha Riess alternately used the names "Carlina Riess" and "Bertha Riess".

1900 Census: Riess, Otto W; CARLINA B. (b. Oct 1858); sons William, Fred, Edwin, Elroy; neighbour Newsham.

1910 Census: Riess, BERTHA, age 51 sons William, Edward, Elroy; neighbour Newsham.

1917 death certificate of William: father Otto W. Riess (PA), mother BERTHA OWENS [sic] (Germany); signed Mrs. Bertha Riess.

1920 Census: Riess, BERTHA C age 61; son Elroy.

1936 death certificate of BERTHA Riess; father Fredrick Ohens, mother unknown, informant Elroy L Riess.

1955 death certificate of Edwin: father William Otto Riess, mother BERTHA OHEN [sic].

It is highly likely that these consecutive census entries are tracking the same person, and that she favoured the name Carlina B., at first, but later Bertha C., each time using the initial of her other forename. In her later life she was known primarily as Bertha.

The anglicized name "Owens" may have been used by Bertha herself in 1917 due to anti-German sentiment.

Mr. Stegman was a hard-working Navy veteran, engineer, electrician, and school bus driver, who was appreciated by many Belleville students and parents.

A lifelong Belleville resident, he graduated from Signal Hill Grade School, Belleville Township High School, and Belleville Junior College. Later in life he went on to pursue a degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from Washington University in St. Louis. Upon graduation from BJC, he was inducted into PHI THETA KAPPA National Scholastic Honorary Society. He was an avid motorcycle rider, golfer, dog lover, and antique radio collector and repairman.

During his time at Illinois Power, he attended night school at BJC and Washington University St. Louis. He was a senior loft engineer and senior programmer for McDonnell Douglas in St. Louis, Mo., from 1964 to 1987. While at McDonnell Douglas, he did the mathematical definition of the fuselage on the F-15 aircraft. When McDonnell Douglas was subcontractor to North American Aviation, Karl did the definitions on the Space Shuttle 2's main engine pods and the structure for the Orbital Maneuvering System. Upon retirement in 1987, Karl volunteered in the PSOP Meals on Wheels program. Karl then served Belleville students and families for 13 years as a caring bus driver in the Harmony Emge Ellis District 175 and Durham School Services.

As a member and past president of The Exchange Club of Belleville, Karl enjoyed working weekly bingo sessions and the annual Easter egg hunt. Karl was a faithful member of Zion Lutheran Church in Belleville, where he married his wife Arlene Nollau in 1951.

31 On the 1887 Marriage license the names are clearly August Goerts and Emma Hucke.

Death certificates are available for an August Goerts (1862-1910, St. Louis) and Emma S Goerts (30 Aug 1867 - 1 Jul 1920).

However, on the certificate for Emma, her parents are listed as Carl Schraubstadter and Auguste Shern, and birthplace as Boston Mass - making her likely not Emma Hucke.

Unless, perhaps, Emma Hucke was adopted - and is also known as Emma Schraubstadter.

 
Hucke, Emma (I516)
 
32 Origin of Henry Vogel:

Henry Vogel's census entries for 1900, 1910, and 1920 are all clearly for the same person - they show him with wife Wilhelmina/Mina/Minnie, and the same children. All show his birthplace as Illinois, and the 1900 census shows his birthdate as Sep 1861.

The birthplaces he gave for his parents:

1900 - Germany, Germany
1910 - Germany, Germany
1920 - Prussia, Hannover

In 1910 Henry and Mina Vogel lived next to George F, Louisa E., and Alvin T. Vogel. George was about seven years younger than Henry. Assuming that this George is likely Henry's younger brother, this may serve as an aid to finding Henry's parents.

34 Parents of Bertha Ohens Riess:

1936 death certificate of Bertha Riess states:
father Fredrick Ohens, Germany
mother unknown,
informant Elroy L Riess.

Bertha herself was born in Germany - the census records and death certificate agree. She arrived in the United States before the birth of her oldest son William in Pennsylvania in June 1883 (ref, 1900 US Census).

A search of Prussian emigration records reveals an extremely close match:

Year 1859
Karoline Emilie Bertha Oehns
Origin Zinna - Destination Amerika
Birth 8 Okt 1858 - Age 1

The birthdate of this "Karoline E. Bertha Oehns" is only two days from that on the death certificate of "[Carlina] Bertha Ohens" (see previous note about the name Carlina, and how she used it interchangeably with Bertha, favouring the latter).

"Carlina" may have been how her name was transcribed by an American bureaucrat, hearing "Karolina". "Acht Oktober" may have become 10 October, through a similar error.

Searching the same Auswanderungsakten Brandenburg, Preußen records for "Oehns" in 1859, we find what appears to be a single family coming from the town of Zinna:

Karl Julius Ludwig Oehns, b. 1823
Charlotte Caroline Leinert Oehns, b. 1829
Karoline Wilhelmine Emilie Oehns, b. 1856
Karoline Emilie Bertha Oehns, b. 8 Okt 1858

There are no other Oehns from Zinna in that emigration record in that year.

Despite the name Frederick Oehns on the death certificate, then, I believe these to be more likely candidates for Bertha's parents, and am listing them as such. Note also that Elroy was unaware of his grandmother's name - either forename or surname - thus indicating that he was very unfamiliar with his own mother's origins.

All of this is dependent on the assumptions that Carlina Bertha Oehns, born 10 Oct 1858, and Karoline Emilie Bertha Oehns, b. 8 Okt 1858, are one and the same person, and that she was - at the age of about one year - traveling with her parents and sister.

 
Oehns, Karoline Bertha Emilie (I25)
 
35 Possible birthplace 5572 Roenicke Road Millstadt; Bob Hucke's research indicates this was granted to a Jacobi before 1880s. Farmhouse there (from that era) sold at auction 2013, http://www.adamsauctions.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/80acreskoeberl6.pdf Jacobi, Helena Maria (I9)
 
36 Possible match in Calvary Cemetery lot 0541
John Moore buried 30 Apr 1905 age 50 (born ~1855);
Mary Moore buried 22 Jun 1888 age 36 (born ~1852) 
Family F569
 
37 Research Note - Nellie Landers Riess.

Fred Riess's birth certificate lists his mother's birth name as Nellie Landers, age 24 (in March 1910), which puts her birth year at 1886.

The gravestone in the Riess plot at Calvary lists Helen Riess, wife of Fred Sr, 1887-1935. Records for that plot show Nellie Riess, buried Jan 24 1935, and Fred (Sr) buried May 24 1933.

This matches the burial place/date on death certificate for Nellie Riess of 6316 Lucille, born 14 Feb 1886 (not 1887 as gravestone indicates). Informant was Fred W Riess of 6316 Lucille, her son. (Sue Riess Hucke remembers this address, thus linking this death certificate to our family knowledge).

On death certificate her parents are listed as:

John Landers, b. New Jersey
Mary Meyer, b. New Orleans LA

NELLIE CENSUS RECORDS.
1910, Riess, Nellie B., age 23, born MO, f. born NJ m. born LA (husband Fred 24, son Fred 0 mo.)
1920, Riess, Helen, 32, born MO, f. born NJ, m. born LA (husband Fred 34, son Fred Jr 9)
1930, Riess Helen, 43, married at 22, born MO, f. born NJ, m. born New Orleans LA (husband Fred 44, sons Fred 20, Robert 8)
- note that these census records indicate 1887 birth, not 1886. Married probably 1908, 1909.

NELLIE'S FATHER.

Missouri death certificates show a John Landers, born New Jersey, died Missouri October 1912, address 2017 Bissell, born Feb (unkn) 1858, signed by Edw.(?) M Brady, bur. Calvary

NELLIE'S MOTHER.

A postcard kept by Sue Riess and signed Nellie is addressed "Dear Mother", thus indicating that her mother or stepmother was alive at the time. In the postcard Nellie appears to be at about 30 years old, placing it about 1916.

One possible Mary Landers was the Mary A (Hannigan) Landers who died in 1900 and is buried next to John Landers in Calvary; she cannot be the "mom" of the postcard, as she died when Nellie was 14. Mary Julia (Cannon) Landers, who died 1919, was wife of James according to her death certificate.

43 Sister Joel Jacobi, O.S.F., 98, of the Hospital Sisters of St. Francis, died Sunday, December 13, 2015, at 6:15 p.m. at St. Francis Convent, Springfield, Ill.

Sister Joel, the former Marie Jacobi, was born in Belleville, Ill., on Jan. 3, 1917, the daughter of Urban and Anna, nee Biver, Jacobi. She entered the Congregation on Feb. 1, 1936, and professed her religious vows on Oct. 4, 1938.

Sister graduated from St. John's School of Nursing in 1941. She received a BSN from St. Louis University in 1955, and an MSN from Catholic University in 1959. Nursing was the focus of her professional life, serving as staff nurse, supervisor and clinical instructor over a period of 15 years. After obtaining her BSN and MSN in Nursing, Sister

assumed the nurse educator role at St. John's School of Nursing in Springfield, Ill.,

Marillac College in St. Louis, Mo., and at the University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire; and was Professor of Nursing, teaching young students compassionate care for the sick and poor for 40 years. In the early 1980's, while stationed in Eau Claire, Sister was instrumental in starting a food pantry to distribute food to those in need until her return to the

Motherhouse in 2005.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by a brother, Paul Jacobi; and two

sisters, Armella Touchette and Irma Hausmann.

She is survived by a sister, Dolores Galway of Port Clinton, Ohio; and many nieces and nephews; as well as her Franciscan Sisters with whom she shared her life for more than 77 years.

46 The 1920 US Census lists a Carl Hucke, age 31, in Carondelet, St. Louis County, with wife Maude, 24, and son George, 5. The census-taker lists Carl's birthplace as "Halperstead (Ger.)".

In 1930 Carl (41), Maude (34), and George (15), now in the city of St. Louis were joined by Carl Jr., age 5. (Likely Carl J. Hucke Jr, 1924-2006, buried Calvary).

There is no location called "Halperstead" in Germany; however there is a Halberstadt in Saxony-Anhalt, 111 km from Dingelstadt.

Johannes Hucke (1849-1929?), http://hucke.org/go/I711) was born in Dingelstadt, Eichsfeld, served as a bailiff (Obergerichtsvollzieher) in Heiligenstadt, Eichsfeld, and retired to Halberstadt in 1911.

Johannes's son Karl Hucke is listed as having emigrated to America; however no birthdate is provided, and it is uncertain whether he came from Halberstadt.
