So, I checked the records I have, and it turns out that Anton and Anna were not on the Brandel side, but the Benishek side of my family. I will still ask around and let you know if I find anything.
Sorry to disappoint.

Hi,
I'm Erin Brandel Dykhuizen. Brandel is my maiden name. My father is Michael John Brandel of Appleton, WI. My Grandfather was Herbert Victor Brandel (lived and died in Manitowoc, but was born on a farm outside of Manitowoc), and I believe his mother was Anna Brandel. Grandpa Brandel died in 2001 in Manitowoc, I think his mother died in the late 80's/early 90's -- I didn't know great grandma well at all.
If you want more info, I can ask my dad for more exact dates. Antone sounds familiar, two. I'll have to go look at some of the old photos.

swenson5570 — 2008-12-06 04:29:51Z

Thanks for the info , I am willing to listen to any thing as this has been a dead end. there are no recorded deaths of anton or his wife catherine. Anna was married in Oconto in 1885 and the Brandels there are related but how?

Thanks again

Brandel, Ludwig

RitaFeduska — 2007-11-19 16:37:22Z

Searching for information re: Ludwig Brandel. He was born 8 Apr 1856 in Baden, Russia and immigrated via Canada in 1910, age 53. Spouse was Barbara Schaumloeffel and they resided in Oakes, ND after arriving in the United States. The surname was sometimes written as Brendel and also Brandle. Children were Ludwig Jr, Joseph, Frances, Veronica, Regina, Barbara, Benedict and Margaret. Ludwig died in 1927 and Barbara in 1926. Would like to know if Ludwig had siblings and also the name of his parents.

Do you know John Brandel's mother's maiden name? John had an older brother (half-brother actually) Wolfgang that is in my family tree. Have been trying to gather information about wolfgang's father, Joseph Brandl and Joseph's two wives. the first wife and Wolfgang's mother was Theresa Kerscher. Trying to verify the maiden name for his second wife, also Theresa. Any information you have would be greatly appreciated. Have quite a bit of information on Wolfgang if you are interested and some on the other brothers and sisters.

Andrew Brandel

jeck4starr — 2006-10-02 13:32:33Z

I am looking for my gg-grandfather, Andrew Brandel. I have little information on him. We have a very approximate birthdate of about 1819. He was born in Germany. His wife's first name was Catherine born abt. 1829 in Prussia. They had several children, Robert (my g-grandfather) born in 1856, John 1849, Frank 1853, Anna, 1858, Joseph 1860, Margaret 1863, Andrew 1866, and Rosey 1870.

My grandfather lived in Allegany, Cattaraugus County, NY as it is believe his father did. We "assume" Andrew and Catherine lived in that vacinty somewhere too.

Any help would be appreciated!

Re: Brandel, Charles in Michigan 1870

PKgaulke1 — 2006-06-04 17:34:50Z

Because of the difference in dates, my Charles was born around 1824 I don't think we can find a direct connection without your George's parents, do you know who they were? I know my great grandfather, Valentine Luppert was in New York for five years before going to Michigan to live with his uncle Charles. It's possible he lived in New York during that time with another uncle. 1868/69 is when he went to Michigan. Sorry, but if you find a connection, let me know directly at PKgaulke@aol.com

My Grandfather was George Barker Brandel. He was born in 1883, was orphaned in 1890 or thereabouts and lived/was adopted by the Loesch Family of Lancaster NY. He had a brother who lived and worked in Detroit - I think. His father was William and mother was Amelia - at least according to his deather certificate. Any connection to your Brandels?

This is fabulous. Ethel Wager was my mother and I would love any of the Wager sister memorabilia you have. Mom died in '88. I'll email you my address. This is so very cool.

I don't know if Aunt Kate even has a birth announcement, but if she doesn't I'll frame it for her. It would be a perfect Christmas gift.

Re: Henry Wager

2006-01-16 00:49:31Z

How nice to see the system work. I have no need for this birth announcement so would be glad to send it on to you. Chatting with my sister in Mich I learned that in the vast box of pictures there is one of Ethel Wager, whom we think, was a girlhood friend of one of the Reid girls from the Thumb area. They would be Viva, Erma Jean or May. My mom was Viva and Grandmother was Mary Elley Reid from the Deford area. Glad to hear from you Donna Deezsplace2@aol.com

Re: Henry Wager

2006-01-16 00:48:36Z

Karen, in answer to your question about my grandfather and what I know: I never knew him as he died in 1927. He was a traveling salesman for McNess and Company and travelled near Cass City MI. He was born Henry Rawlings Wager in September 17 1862 somewhere in Canada. His parents were James Franklin Wager and Jane Rawlings. Some notes writen by my fmother indicate that James was Irish and Dutch. And Jane was English. I have been unable to locate his birthplace but haven't really worked on it. He taught school before becoming a salesman. He had polio as a child and attended Ferris Institute in Big Rapids MI. I'm at my daughter's visiting for a week and that is the info she has in her geneology file - I don't know that I have any more at home in LA. Are you a Wager family member?

Re: Henry Wager

Any relation?

2006-01-16 00:46:03Z

What we have so far:
Margaret Brandel married John Helt.
They had four children, one was Clara Adele.
Clara married John Herring and had two children, John Jr. and Helen.
Helen married Wright Morgan, and had one child, divorced and married Alvin and had another child.
My father in law is the Morgan child, and we are trying to trace the family. Herring came from Illinois if that helps.

Any information will be helpful.
Thank you.

Re: Brandel, Charles in Michigan 1870

2005-08-15 12:35:07Z

My Grandfather 'George Barker Brandel' was born in 1883, was orphaned apparently around 1890. Was adopted by (Loesch) family in Lancaster NY at that time. George apparently had a brother who lived in Michigan, we think it was Detroit. We know nothing either of his brother or of his parents. Dates are all out of whack but maybe they are connected? My mothers recollection before she died was that George and brother were orphaned when parents travelled from Canada to New York, caught flu and died and left the boys to fend for themselves.

I have acquired photos of these people and would like to return them to descendants. You will need to provide some genealogical proof that they belong to your family.

Sarah J. Fisher states she had 11 children and 3 are alive in 1900. Know children are Mary A., Emma, Merrit, Mereland, Clara, Ethel, and Leone. Believe that Ethel b. March 1876, married Alvin E. Griffith b. March 1874 and lived in Detroit Michigan in 1900. Living with Ethel in 1900 are her parents, but they are back in Pentwater in 1910. Abraham and Sarah came from Williamsport, Pa., were they lived with oldest daughter Mary A. in 1860. In 1880 Sarah appears in Armstrong Twp., Lycoming Co., Pa. (near Williamsport) with all above listed children except Mary A., and Jacob 98 lives with her and is listed as father to her. Since Abraham's father should be around 96-98 and was named Jacob I believe this Jacob to be Abraham's father. Sarah's parents are Andrew and Amy Hill of Lycoming Co., near Williamsport and then Sonestow,Sullivan Co., Pa. Merrit married Minnie Theresa Geppert and had two children Glenn A. Fisher and Pauline D. Fisher. M. Theresa Geppert had two sisters that I am aware of Eva and Laura Geppert. Glenn married Gladys Brandel. Would like to connect with Sarah and Abraham's family, I have a great deal of info on Sarah's sisters.

I am also looking for information on my grandfather's (Oliver) family. Not much is known about them. I do know that my great grandmother's maiden name was Brandel. I have a lot of information about my family after Joseph and Ella, but not much before. Did I understand you correctly, that Joseph Mattek might have been a chef for Al Capone! Amazing!

I would love to hear from you. If you have a chance, please write back! Take care.

SOLDIERS SHOT KILLS WOMAN IN LA AUTO

Los Angeles, Dec. 15, 1941- A a9 year old army private who fired his gun when a motorist refused to halt was in jail for suspision of murder, booking today as the army issued an appeal for cooperation with sentinels and patrols.
The army gave Private Eugene I. Tuttle of Divide Montana, into the custody of the sherriff last night after Adele Brandel, 52, socially prominent Los Angeles woman, was shot to death near municipal airport.
Sherriff's inspector Walter Hunter said Tuttle, of the 65th Field Arteliery, told him a motorcycle officer asked several soldiers to help him strip blue coverigns from automobile headlights.
When the automobile bearing Mrs. Brandel and her husband, Harry M. Brandel, refused to stop at Tuttle's command, the youth fired. "I thought I fired into the air", the soldier was quoted as saying.
Dr. Brandel failed to stop ecause he thought the soldiers were trying to get a ride.
After last weeks initial air raid alert, many motorists insttalled blue coverings on their automobile lights in the mistaken belief they could drive during blackouts in that manner.

Mary BRANDEL in/around Randolph, Wisconsin

MFrost2161 — 2004-02-21 13:24:10Z

Looking for information on a Mary Brandel to tie her to my family. I have several old photos of my grandmother, Katherine E. Owen, and a Mary Brandel is in the same pictures, but don't know how the two are connected - if they were related or just good friends. Also don't know if Brandel was Mary's maiden name or a married name. Katherine was born in 1875 and the photos were taken when the 2 of them were young women. Katherine was born in Illinois, but siblings were born in the Randolph area. Found an Edward & Mary J. Brandel in Randolph in the 1930 census - and Mary was born about 1880 so it's possible this may be her, but don't know. If anyone has information on a Brandel family connected to an Owen family I'd appreciate hearing from you. This mystery has been "bugging" me for years. Thanks, Peggy Frost
