I believe you are looking for Friedrich Wilhelm Ludwig Hoffenbrödel (Birth 10 Aug 1811 in Glashütte, Ostprignitz-Ruppin, Brandenburg, Germany and Death 18 Dec 1872 in Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota, United States).

According to the christening record, his parents' names were:

Johann Gottlieb Hoffenbrödel 1810 – 1812
Friedrich Wilhelm Ludwig Hoffenbrödel 1811 – 1872
Johanna Charlotte Hoffenbrödel 1814 – 1854

Friedrich actually went by the name Louis once moving to the US. His wife, was Ernestine Johanne Benecke (Birth May 1829 in Germany and Death 24 Dec 1904 in Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota, United States).

It is possible that a researcher in CZ might be aware of the DAS KOLONIZATION records.

Re: DAS KOLONIZATION records

I am a member of these organizations and have checked them out already. What I really need are the records of land grants from Austrian rulers who controlled the Das Kolonizations applications and grants. There must be a record of their names and where they came from prior to Galicia some where in Austria. Thanks for responding to my questions so quickly. Much appreciated.

DAS KOLONIZATION records

dstrek1 — 2013-03-16 22:40:42Z

My ancestors were granted land in the early 1800's in Galicia. (Deutsch-Lany and Kamionka Strumilowa areas). These were listed as Bohemen-Deutsch settlements. The Das Kolonization records do not show where they came from in Bohemia. THEIR NAMES WERE NICHOLAS STRECKER (Stroker) and his wife Catharina Schwarz and sons ANTONY AND SIMON and (ALBERT WHO WOULD ALSO BE A SON or brother to Nicholas.) Would anyone know where and how I could find their Bohemian records or land grant records would be deeply appreciated?

Re: Lev Surname

steve_lev — 2013-03-08 09:22:57Z

FRANK M. LEV (1889), carrier for R. F. D.
route No. 1 out of Jackson, was bom in Bo-
l.emia April 24, 1875, the son of Albert H.
and Anna M. (Veverka) Lev. The father now
lives in Jackson and is 77 years of age as of 1910; the
mother died at Jackson April 19, 1909, aged
68 years and eight months as of 1910. There are three
living children of this family besides the sub-
ject of this biography. They are Mrs. Mary
Vajner, Albert A. Lev and Mrs. Anna Benda.

In 1883 Frank accompanied his parents to
America, the family home being made at Mount
Vernon, Iowa. In 1889 the family moved to
Jackson county and made their home on the south half of the northwest quarter of section
eight, Des Moines township. Frank lived with
his parents on that farm until 1906. Then he
acquired the property, rented it and moved
to Jackson, where he bought village property.
He took the position of mail carrier for route
one in 1906} and has since been engaged in that
occupation.

Mr. Lev is a member of the Catholic church.
He was married in Chicago December 11, 1906,
to Anna R. Benesh, a native of the city in
which she was married and a daughter of
Wenzel and Mary Benesh. Mr. and Mrs. Lev
are the parents of one child, Elenora, born
April 3, 1908.

Re: Kneifel relatives of Anna Kneifel Blaschke

lavernedysart — 2013-01-12 06:40:54Z

I just saw your post dated in 2002. Your Great Grandmother, Anna Kneifel Blaschke is my Great Grandfather, Louis Kneifel's sister. He lived and died in the Shiner/Moulton area. Her other brother Frank Kneifel lived in Shiner/Moulton and then moved with his family to Yorktown. My dad left a note about his relatives that referenced Anna (who lived in Bomarton!)and Frank immigrating shortly after Louis did. I have a few pictures of Louis and have seen the picture of Anna on her tombstone, but would love to see more pictures of her.

I am crossing my fingers that this note still finds you - I would love to hear from you. I am traveling to Europe in March with several family members to see the villages of origin for the Kneifels and Blaschkes and your post gave me an elusive piece of the puzzle - the village of origin for this family of Kneifel siblings - Frauenthal.

FYI - Louis' daughter, Katherine Biermeier married Ferdinand Blaschke. In my dad's note he states that Anna's husband Joe Blaschke was a different line of Blaschkes. I would love to know what you know about that!

Re: VOGL-DEISTER

In case it's helpful to anyone's research, I've indexed some obscure entries found in local German papers for an Andreas Vogl who had a letter held at the post office from Geilsehöring (Jan. 1860). Also entries that match your Margarethe, d. 1885 (published as "Vogel"), but unlikely matches of death notices published for a "Mike Vogl" in 1926. There are over 300 combined Vogl & Vogel entries in the growing index.

Hi Sunny.
Schneiderhof was little village near German border in Domazlice district in southwest Bohemia. It was destroyed after WW2 form Czech army and all of people were displaced to Germany.
Unfortunately the parish registers of Schneiderhof are not on line. It is possible to search in them in archives in Plzen. It exist also the census lists from 1869-1910 and 1921 in archives in our town.
I mean I can help you with the research in Bohemian archives. Contact me directly to a.kondrys(et)volny.cz

I would recommend something like sending a letter to the surname holders in the ancestral location or vicinity of about 10 miles with a photo of an ancestor, if possible, or a small family tree and your e-mail address.

Going thru the church records should be helpful.

Thank you! I will copy the post onto those boards. I've found the maps, phone books etc. and there are SO many Staubers in that region of Czech Repulic and neighboring Bavaria that it would take me years to call everyone. Not to mention I don't speak Czech. LOL!

I figured I would first start with the names of the relatives that stayed behind, then try to find where they went after the expulsion. It's possible they came to the US as well, I just don't know who to look for. I haven't run into many other people researching these relatives, so I'm thinking that obtaining copies of the Schneiderhof (Mysliv) parish books from Vseruby district would be my best bet. Trying to orchestrate that from Alaska will be interesting though!

STAUBER family from Bohemia: Schneiderhof (Mysliv), Neumark (Domalicze), Pilsen

sunnyaldrich — 2013-01-01 12:43:28Z

I'm looking for any information available about the Stauber lineage in Schneiderhof. It was a very small village (only about 287 occupants) so I'm looking for any connections available. I've tracked down the parish registries, however they are not available online yet. Here's what I have so far:

1. Wolfgang STAUBER (1) + Theresia RIEDERER
2. Wolfgang STAUBER (2) b. 21 MARCH 1862 in Schneiderhof + Frances SEIDL b. 19 SEPT 1865 (daughter of Andrew & Dorada SEIDL). Wolfgang immigrated to Menominee, Michigan about 1876.
2. Charles STAUBER b. 3 DEC 1870 in Schneiderhof + Louisa Augusta BARTELS b. 1879 in Brandenburg, Germany. Charles immigrated to Wesboro, Wisconsin in 1888 and is my great-grandfather. He frequently went to Menominee, Michigan to visit Wolfgang.
2. Joseph STAUBER b. 1864 in Schneiderhof + Anna STODOLA b. 1867 in Bohemia (daughter of Anton STODOLA.) I don't know much about Joseph except he listed Theresia RIEDERER and Wolfgang STAUBER as his parents on his marriage certificate and they are also listed on his death certificate in 1893. Both marriage & death occurred in Menominee so I have no doubt he is a brother to Wolfgang & Charles.
2. Franz STAUBER?? - Likely remained in Schneiderhof
3. Franzisca STAUBER b. 1901 in Schneiderhof + Ed GILLIGAN b. 1896 in Ireland. Francis immigrated to Chicago, Illinois in 1922. I have a letter from her addressed to "Uncle Carl" and referencing "Uncle Wolfgang" however it's in very scribbly German so I can't read much of it. Hoping to get it translated soon.
2. Barbara STAUBER ?? - Rumored to have immigrated to Chicago, Illinois.

My grandfather (son of Charles) just turned 94 years old and said he was told his father had one brother who stayed in Bohemia. He doesn't know the brother's name. He's under the impression his father had a sister who settled in Chicago, Illinois and worked as a telephone operator. He thinks her name is Barbara, but I have yet to locate her.

Possible relatives:
* Theresia STAUBER b. 1848 immigrated in 1868 and listed Schneiderhof as her home town. She lists Michael STAUBER as her father & Anna STAUBER as her mother.
* Anton STAUBER b. 1869 in Philippsberg, Bohemia + Mary KOHLBECK b. 1867 (daughter of Frank KOHLBECK). Anton was the witness at Joseph Stauber's wedding to Anna STODOLA and is named on their record. He settled in Menominee, Michigan. He lists his parents as Michael + Anna Marie STAUBER. I'm guessing he may be a cousin to Wolfgang/Charles?
* Michael STAUBER and Anton RIEDERER are listed as living in Schneiderhof in a book about Industry & Work in the Bohemian Forest in the 1930's.

Thanks so much for the great link to the newspaper lookup. I am still in search for Katherina's maiden name and information.

Son Frederick was born when Nicholas was 13?! Are you certain?

The Winona Newspaper Project will probably be of help to you, although perhaps not for determining Katherina's maiden name. A quick search brought up the obituary for Nicholas in 1880.

It works best to do an advanced search: put in Krieg, "All Clippings", "Search in all Publications", and sort by date ascending.

The website usually loads very slowly, so be patient.

Good luck,

Katherina ???

I am looking for my grandmother Katherina's maiden name and any other history such as parents.

Nicholas Krieg (1819 – 1880) married Katherina. They had four boys: Frederick (1832 – 1899), Eugene Joseph (1841 – 1899), Henry (1848 – 1905) and Frank (1849 – 1883). They migrated to the US on July 1844 on the ship Familian and may have first settled in Illinois, later they would reside in Winona Minnesota. Nicholas was a stonecutter & his spouse a homemaker. Katherina (records show Catherine) was born about 1812 in Bohemia and died 22 Oct 1899 in Winona, Minnesota.

Thank You

Hi
Marek is common Bohemian surname.In 1888 many people in Bohemia spoke both languages.
You need to know the birth place or place of last residence in Bohemia. The emigration in 1888 can be recorded in database of Ellis Island. You need also the maiden name of Emilia.

Hello I've been trying to do some research myself.
There was an Ullersdorf in Bohemia, close to the German city of Zittau, it was probably closer to Hradek nad Nisou in the czech republic.
I know that the Zimmermann and Tschiedel names are/where quite common around that area until the end of WWII.
My Grandfather's sister (Motz) married a Emil Tschiedel and they had a son. All three were killed/died during WWII.
