My gggrandfather was John F. NIEHAUS b.6/5/1819 in Hanover Germany, migrated to US about 1846. He applied for US citizenship in Jo Daviess Co. IL 1846. On 5/6/1856 he married Caroline D. PALCHO b. 8/27/1829 in Mecklenburg Germany. Their marriage certificate indicates that she had been living in Galena IL at the time of their marriage. I don't know when she migrated to US. They moved to Plattville WI where he is listed as a tailor, and then to Nebraska where he was a farmer. They had 4 sons: William, Lewis, George, and ?. I can't find any previous info on either of them.

I have researched all the OVERMAN lines I can find for 20+ years. It is interest because they are (almost) all related to the same line. Would be happy to share with you anything I have, and would hope to find out more about your particular line..

I would like information on the VAN VOLTENBURGS you mentioned. There are two groups of them in IA. One is mine and the other must be related somehow..

Hello - I will list all information I have below. 1. VAN VOLTENBURG, Oliver (head of household) b. July 1841 in Indiana, mother & father born in Indiana. Lists occupation as day laborer who owned a mortgaged home within the English Township. 2. Van Voltenburg, Minerva (wife) b. April 1831 in Indiana, mother born in Pennsylvania, father born in Maryland. 4 children born, 3 living at time of census. 3. Van Voltenburg, William R. (son) b. May 1873 in Iowa, occupation - day laborer. 4. Van Voltenburg, Jacob G. (son) b. November 1874 in Iowa, occupation - day laborer. 5. HASELTON (or Harelton), Cora (sister-in-law) b.

Seek to know origins and eventualities of one George Washington BROWNELL of Galena, Jo Daviess Co., IL. In 1847, he married Mrs. Johanna (or Hannah) DUNCAN of Galena. At the time, he was a resident of the Falls of St. Croix. He may be a relative of Marcia BROWNELL, with whom he shares a page in the 1860 Galena, third ward, census. He is probably the father of the Marcia BROWNELL who is honored as a grammar school student in an April 1864 Galena newspaper. G.W. BROWNELL was a religious follower of Emanuel SWEDENBORG, i.e., a member of the Church of the New Jerusalem. Would be pleased to correspond & share. Thank you, Bill Mac Kay in New York City. .

Hi Nichole, Sorry to disappoint you, but the Ann MCPHILLIPS rings no bells for me. Did she settle in Jo Daviess county? I would be anxious to learn, because I havn't traced any one to Ireland yet. Good luck with your searches.
