Cuvelier and Cuvelge

My gg grandfather was Johann Karl Cuvelier who married Margaretha Dauffenbach 22 Oct 1850 in Clervaux, Luxembourg. Johann's fathers name was Jean Cuvelier, mother Maria Guelf from France. Johann and Margaretha immigrated to the US in 1872 on the ship Steinmann from Antwerp to NY. Three children were listed with them: Henry, Leonhard (should have been Leonarde-female) and Margaretha (my greatgrandmother). Johann went by the name Charles and they spelled their last name Cuvelge which is the way Cuvelier would be spelled in Luxembourg. Henry disappeared in abt 1883 according to his mother's obit in 1907. The family went to Chicago for about a year and then to Mankato, MN. Johann died in 1879.
Anyone having any knowledge of Henry please e-mail me. I do have info on the other children I am willing to share.

Hello,
My gg grandfather was Theodore Cuvelier. he was from Belgium or France. Did Johann Karl have any brothers that you are aware of? Theodore arrived in NY in 1850 and settled in Nova Scotia Canada....where I live.
Any info would help and I will share all I have with you. Can't find out where Theo came from.

My gg grandfather had 12 siblings. They are: Johann Joseph, Johann Karl (my gg grandfather), joseph, Elizabeth, Philipp, Anna Margareta, Marie, Clara, Margareta, Karl or Charles, another Maria, Unavailable, and Justine. Their parents names were Jean Cuvelier and Maria Guelf. The 1st two Johann's were born in Arlon, Luxembourg, Belgium and the rest in Clervaux, Luxembourg. My info is from Family Search.org and personal research. Would like to exchange info. Email me at jkhouha@yahoo.com. Put Cuvelier in the subject line so I don't delete it. Judy
