Bonnie,

John W Davis was my ggrandfather, married to Mary Louise Treiber. Have some info. Contact me at rshaw@steelstructures.com.

If this appears more than once, blame the servers. John Davis and Mary Treiber were my great-grandparents. Contact me at rshaw@steelstructures.com.

I am researching a Mary or Maria Treiber, born about 1868 and living in Jefferson City, MO, in 1880.
Could she be your relation?
I am interested in her origins and her connections to a family named BALDENWECK in the St. Louis area and a family named RUHLMAN in New Orleans

My Mary Louise Treiber was born Nov 10, 1862 in Germany. I have her living in Oconee, IL in 1884. She came to the states in 1877, naturalized in 1887. She married John W Davis on November 24, 1884 in Pana, Christian County, IL.

I do not have any records with the other family names you have listed, so have to believe there is no connection.

Darn.
