Re: 1907 envelope sent to Germany from 111 Marietta Street, Burlington, IA

JimMiller599 — 2009-10-05 17:29:01Z

Hi Bonnie-I received a new response this morning that explains who's who. The envelope was sent by Frank Springer. Springer worked with Wachsmuth on fossils in a laboratory that Wachsmuth built behind the house at 111 Marietta.

You can see a list of publications they co-authored at http://crinoid.gsajournals.org/crinoidmod/bib?id=wachsmuth-s.... The 111 Marietta Street address shows up in an annual report of the Carnegie Institute at http://books.google.com/books?id=bn5IAAAAMAAJ&pg=RA2-PA5...

Re: Lena Muenzenmeyer Tell

Great to hear from you. My gg grandmother was Caroline Muenzenmaier-Kurrle. Her husband was Paul Gottlieb Fredericke Kurrle. He died when he was in his 50's. Between them they had 14 children, all of which came to the states around 1885. Caroline went to stay with 2 of her brothers in Burlington, Iowa. Most are buried in Aspen Grove Cemetery, and I do have the listing from the cemetery of all the Muenzenmaiers(meyers) buried there. I would be more than happy to provide any info that you may want.
Best Regards,
Heather

I am interested in obtaining information of any kind related to the Muenzenmeyers as I am interested in collecting information about our history. Thanks so much for your help!

James Graham (b. abt. 1864) - Burlington

adb118 — 2009-06-06 15:46:56Z

James Graham, born about 1864 in Wisconsin, lived in Burlington, IA (1920-?). He was alive when his brother Albert passed away (July 1940) and living in Burlington; James would have been about 77 at that time.

James was single. His parents were James Graham (Ireland) and Mary/Maloney/Belona Flint (New York).

I'm looking for death information and/or an obituary.

If I need to look to a different venue to find this information, I would appreciate any leads.

Thank you.

Not sure is this is your James but looking on Rootsweb site for Des Moines cemeteries, I found the following:

http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~iadesmoi/Toomstone/FlintRi...

Greenwood Cemetery
Flint River Twnshp, Burlington, IA

ROW 10

GRAHAM, JAMES A. 28 Mar 1836 – 10 Jan 1906

GRAHAM, MARY D. INGHRAM (maiden name) Wife 3 Oct 1845 – 15 May 1931

and then

ROW 24

GRAHAM, RACHAEL LEAH 22 Aug 1882 – 7 Mar 1968 (Brothers & Sisters)

GRAHAM, JAMES L. BURK 1 July 1865 – 20 Mar 1944 (Brothers & Sisters)

GRAHAM, ALEXIS GREEN 21 Oct 1867 – 27 Aug 1944 (Brothers & Sisters)

I know the maiden name for possible mother, Mary, was not correct and I wasn't sure if your James had the siblings listed. Thought it was worth a look.

1907 envelope sent to Germany from 111 Marietta Street, Burlington, IA

JimMiller599 — 2009-07-18 13:09:28Z

I recently found an old envelope that was sent to Germany from 111 Marietta Street, Burlington, IA in 1907. You can see the envelope on www.philgen.org (search on Burlington, select the one sent to Leipzig, Germany, click on View, and scroll to the bottom of the page), or click on the link below. I am unable to read the sender's name and wondered if someone more familiar with Burlington can read it. I believe that the sender may have family in Germany and this envelope will be helpful to someone in their genealogical research. The reason I have a photo of the envelope is because of my interest in using old envelopes and postcards in genealogical research. I have an article in the spring 2009 issue of New England Ancestors entitled Philatelic Genealogy and have started the philgen website. I do not know if the letter that was in the envelope still exists. Thank you for your help.

Here is a direct link to the photo of the envelope:

Hi Blondie4091-Thanks so much for your efforts. It appears that Wacksmtuh/Wackamuth was in the house 1900-1910, but the other persons living with her/him changed. Do you know if there are Burlington directories available for 1907 (or 1906 or 1908)? Perhaps there was someone at 111 for a short time.

Thanks again for your effortss and for your reply.

Mumaugh - Divorce?

epatgal2 — 2009-09-18 20:59:54Z

Am trying to document the divorce of Frances Miller Mumaugh from John Mumaugh. She was born in 1859 in New Jersey. Married, I believe, in 1879 in Omaha, Nebraska and where she continued to live. Is believed to have divorced prior to 1885. Also believed that she went to Iowa because of the stigma of divorce at that time. ANY help in this is extremely appreciated! Thank you!

GAIUS W. HUBBARD

wfhubbard — 2009-02-16 00:02:48Z

I am looking for any information on a GAIUS W. HUBBARD, whom I believe lived in Des Moines around 1917. He was an underwriting manager for the CAPITAL LIVE STOCK INSURANCE CO.. He later moved to Chicago, around 1919. Thank you very much.

Re: Thomas Brown family

mkck40 — 2009-07-14 01:34:58Z

Thomas Brown's wife Mary Ann was a daughter of Stephen Riggs and Elizabeth Riggs (her maiden name--she was a cousin of Stephen). The ancestry has been traced back to an indentured servant arriving at Accomack Co. Virginia in 1686, Abraham Riggs.
Thomas and Mary Ann were divorced in the Burlington court in 1880. In the 1880 census she was living with daughter Cora and Cora's husband Hiram Graves in Washington, Pottawatamie Co., IA. In an 1885 state census Thomas is living in Allerton, Wayne Co., Iowa, remarried to Anna----
I am researching this family for a descendant of Cora Brown Graves.
