I'm researching my husband's genealogy and it has taken me here. I'm looking for any info on John Braun son of Nickolas Anton and Ceceilia (Keller) Braun. What I know is Nickolas died June 5, 1945 in Kelowna, British Columbia. I know Ceceilia remarried ? Burgad and died in the state of Washington. Some of his sibs moved to British Columbia and some went back to the states. Hope someone can help me.

Hi!

I was able to find some information for you. I have to go out in a few minutes so will put what I can and finish when I get back. I have some census and other records I've found. If you are an Ancestry subscriber I'll just include the links to them but if you're just a member you won't be able to see them so I'll take screen shots. So please let me know.

Nickolas Braun was born about 1888 in Bismark, North Dakota to Wendelin Braun (born about 1857 in Russia) and Eva Schleppe (born about 1858 in Russia). So far I've found five siblings for Nickolas:

Franz born about 1877 in Russia
Wendelin born about 1879 in Russia
Joseph born about 1886 in North Dakota
Eva born about 1892 in North Dakota
John born about 1902 in North Dakota

Nickolas married Cecilia Keller who was born about 1895 in Russia. Her father's name was John.

Nickolas and Cecilia four children that I've found so far:

Katherine "Kate" born about 1908 in Bismark
Madgalena born about 1914 in Bismark
Eva born about 1916 in Montana
Joseph born about 1918 in Bismark

The family lived in West Kootenay for a while between 1910 and 1920 and then went back to North Dakota. They moved back to BC again in 1928 going to Burton, West Kootenay.

Gotta run,

Cheers,

Soosi

Thank you I have most of this just needed to fill in Nickolaus and Cecelia's kids this is the frustrating part. Also when John's mom got remarried. When John was born because I didn't know he existed until I found Katherine's and Cecelia's obit.
I know some of Nickolaus siblings came to Canada then went back to the USA. Nickolaus and Cecelia lived in MT in 1920
