Running on with words / Genealogy today with Struss, Kuhlman, Birx

There is a lady at work, who talks a mile a minute. I mean so very fast, so many words at a time!

Sometimes I feel that is how I write at forums. I blurt it out so fast; I run on and on; forgetting to ask questions; and not waiting for replies.

I merely do so, because I want the person to have all the information. So he or she may look more into it later, if they have the drive, like I do.

I sure do embarrass myself afterwards when I look again at them.
So that is what I have done again here:

Rainer Struss has been in a lot of places of Minnesota that makes me take in my breath. And this is one more time that he has done so. In this tree he has been hinting at the families I have have one or two o, f but not have spent the time connecting. Such as surnames, Hanson, Olson, Luhman, Malo, Rasche, Rathje and many more. Martin and Watonwan hold so many clues. and like all western states they tie into the west and the east. Settlers came from the east to Martin and wanted to be Gentelman farmers with maybe estates. That didn't really pan out for most of them. Many came from Illinois, Iowa and settled as a colony. All Pieces of a puzzle that need placement.
Naefke, Grote, Meyer, Kuhlman,

As others say when pieces flow together and fall like dominoes, it is a good day!
And I have already have had a good day.

Naefke at Latter Day Saints search.org

I returned again for a search at the Latter Day Saint search.org. I had read the comment below on former post from Dr. William Smith where he says he visited the link of

International Genealogical Index - North America

I offered and failed to find the birth of his relative. Not knowing the name of his, I followed my link to see if worked well enough. Sometimes link or no link The latter day saints search form appears minus the batch number. I am not sure why. So I entered again the name of Naefke and that has produced two batch numbers that I can show you. I believe I have had the numbers before and also there is either a marriage or death or cemetery one. It will take me a little time to find the other one.

International Genealogical Index - North America

In this search under "Naefke' I found this:
Alma Naefke born 10 aug. 1891 at Lohrville.
His parents were Diedrich Naefke and Doris Ahrens
Batch number to use for wild search for others:
c 75 1951

Anna Maria Wilhelmina Naefke born 31 Aug. 1887 Lohrville Iowa
Parents: Henrik Naefke and Louise Saucke.
Batch Number;
C75 1837

Hmmm it seems to be listed by Lohrville. I thought, though, that I had seen other cities of Calhoun county before.

And finally this one whichI find very interesting.
William H. Naefke 1883 Illnois
His spouse :
Alma Raithel
Marriage date: 18 Oct. 1911
F506555
998
1553318

Some of the entries here say Crete, others say Will county.
That is where Saucke / Schroeder combine with the Seil family.

Then for Bill's sake I looked at the Smith names.
# 52 is Gwendolyn Marie Smith
FB-- 03.Oct. 1883 Calhoun co. Iowa.

Just a little personal note. I accepted a comment to publish it about five minutes ago. Something happended with it, and now it is gone. I did not get to read it. So sorry.
I am new to this blogging thing and I just don't know all the answers.

Note:
Edited error of William's middle initial A to H. As it was recorded at family search.org. By the way I hope you are using the new Beta also. It's a good thing my readers are on their toes!

Surname SATURDAY with Naerfke and Ahrens

I am back on track with more on NAEFKE and AHRENS on this Surname Saturday.
I just have to warn you you may get a little frustration today. I will try my best to avoid it. Just sometimes, after I write my post I hit the space bar I then find my previous written sentences deleted. So sometimes, just sometimes your jipped my wonderful work. You get a substitute instead. But that is not the frustration I mean.

I just love to check my email and find another letter from Mark Kuhlman. He has given me some more information on the Naefke - Ahrens family. I just love getting information about Ahrens, Naefke famiies from Oldendorf and Nahrendorf.
For years I have been in a ' frustration' wanting more Information on these families. Now with dates, etc, I have more possibilities opened up.

I suppose anyone else would do a happy dance with seeing such a wonderful article. But I am very comfy on this love couch with a huge ottoman. The picture seems very familiar, but I can't say for sure, if I have seen it before or should I say where I have seen it before.
He said this about it after I asked him where it came from.

"Those two articles came from my aunt Laura Naefke Henrichsen from Ft.Dodge Iowa. Her daughter had them hidden away in her old stuff. I just happened to ask her some info and was telling her some of the stuff I was having a hard time finding and she called me back and she had found those articles."

I am giving it to you, but I am not sure if it will enlarge enough for you to read. I am going to try and if it does not work I have a couple of alternatives to try. I am just not that Handy around computer technology.

If I were to get to print it in laser, which would blow it up and maybe not distort it. More than likely, I won't know if it is going to enlarge large enough to read. WE google bloggers often use Picasa. Any pictures we publish are held there and then usually open to public. So once my pics are published, it is easy for me to go and edit it again.
And I can try to enlarge it through Documents. Other wise I can just extract the information for yo

First I'll give you the small version.



This one below is slightly larger once you click it.



A failure. But then I have already given you the info in the article. All that is new to you is the picture for Naefke and the Henry Schroeder information. The information is exactly the same as that you see at my other posting of the information removed from the book Calhoun County, Iowa History 1854- 1987. The best method for the enlargement would be to save this and then click prview. In that way, it does allow you to expand the sizes for your reading comfort. At the large size, I found the blurr hard to bare.

I can get the information Of Henry Schroeder though.
I will need to post this information up at Oldendorf und Nahendorf blog as well. You can find it listed at the right column. Some of my postings there has been delayed due to already mentioned reasons. [ smile] But it will be released soon.

Thank you Mark.

In this case I am sharing information contributed by Mark Kuhlman from the book of Calhoun county History or Biography book. [ More on this book. ] I know the book is available for browsing online. Since I lost many of my favorites bookmarks , I can say, that probably the book is through Google books or Heritage Quest. And quite Possibly through Ancestry. In the past I have looked up many things. I just haven't viewed currently. Many things are still in boxes and I should really get to everything soon before Spring gets here. He sent a scan of pages of Information. I will Use these for your viewing pleasure. Be sure to click on the picture in hopes of a larger image, if your having problems seeing the words.

Once I dig my book out of the box, I can look up something for you if you don't locate one. [ Wink]

My Comments, speculations on this information.
Marks Grandfather Ahrens - Born and died at Bleckede
Bleckede could be a city or it could be the area called Bleckede. As you know the Luhmann/ Schmidt came from Kleinburg, which is much Bleckede area. So research on the family church may vary from that of Nahrendorf. I am not even sure if the Dahlenburg archives would contain their information.

Until Mark pointed out that there was two separate immigrations, I had not been aware of this. I only had made note of those who said they were from Oldendorf.

Notice Dorethea spelling of her name. Their has been a few spelling errors on the census involving this family. But that spelling has been consistent.

Could the Henrichson family possibly be connected to those who live in Oregon that connect to some I have researched briefly?.

The first threshers of the area. I also have a picture of the Luhmanns during Threshing season. The Picture was scanned from the book on the Farnhamville village centennial.
Which reminds me of my glass negatives from Irma Martin. I clearly remember that she asked my grandfather, if he knew anyone on them. It was this big old threshing machine belted to a Harley Davidson Motorcycle.???!!

Note, the local heritage center resources which were at a library held many scrapbooks of newspaper clippings of the local residents. Sorry, but I forget if it was Greene or Calhoun.

I thank Mark for his work and generosity and Gary Ramthun for his voluntary kindness.
