      <description>I am researching Heinrich, my husbands GG Grandfather. I know he lived and died in Cleveland, Ohio in approximately 1921. He emigrated to the U.S. from Hessen. It appears his wife was Catherine Gerlach. It also appears he was born in 1845. I am searching for his parents and receiving conflicting information. Any help that can be provided would be appreciated. &lt;br&gt;Thank you!&lt;br&gt;Missye</description>

      <description>Hello.  My name is Tom Eckhardt and I came across this post from 2000 in which you say you have information on Eckhardts in Illinois.  I'd be most interested in an information about Conrad Eckhardt, born in Germany in 1782 and his son Ferdinand who lived in Rock Island County after emigrating from Germany.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I appreciate any help you can offer.  Thank You&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tom Eckhardt&lt;br&gt;St. Paul, Mn</description>

      <description>Hi&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I'm a descendant of Ferdinand's son George.  I've just started delving into this.  Ferdinand shows up in a number of Family Trees on this site.  His wife was Barbara Elizabeth Schutrumpf, whose mother's maiden name was Riebold.  If you look at the various family trees you can get a lot of information.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And you are right, Ferdinand's father was Conrad, mother Martha Elisabeth Haas</description>

      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.eckhardt/156/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Hello, I am searching for the parents of my grandmother. John Eckhardt was born 07 Nov 1826 in Germany and married Anna Elizabeth Fisch in 1873 in Germany. She was born 23 Jul 1850 in Germany. They came to America in 1893, landing in NY on 28 Apr 1893. They settled in Wood County, WV where other German Lutherans were settling at the time.&lt;br&gt;John was married before but I do not know the name of his first wife or if there were children.&lt;br&gt;We only found a not in my grandmother's things after her death in 1971 that said he had been married before.&lt;br&gt;The passenger record from Ellis Island said their place of residence was Benen, Germany and the point of departure was Bremen, Germany.&lt;br&gt;13 German Lutheran families migrated to the Wood County, WV area in the early 1880's. Some of the other family names were: Roth, Otte, Schueler, Brethauer, Fisch. (Thse families all intermarried.)&lt;br&gt;Anyone having any info on these families, please reply. Thank you.</description>

      <title>Barbary Eckhardt's parents Ignatius and Eva</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.eckhardt/158/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I found Barbary/Barbara born 1844 near Buffalo, NY on the 1850 census with her parents Ignatius b Germany 1823 and Eva born Germany 1827.  There is no sign of any of them anywhere on the 1860 census.  Family legend has it that Barbara's father was "killed by Indians" and her mother remarried a man named something like Brooker.  Barbara married Christopher Panchot in Erie Co., NY 1866.  Does any of this sound familiar?&lt;br&gt;Thanks,&lt;br&gt;Jane  </description>

      <description>Hi there!  John Eckhardt 11-07-1826 to 12-11-1913 and his wife Anna Elizabeth 1850-1933 are buried in the St. Paul Lutheran Church cemetary on Red Hill near Parkersburg, WV (as are some of my relatives).  My great grandmother was Mary Catharine (Brethauer) Stephenson and her godmother at her baptism in 1880 in Ellenberg-Breitenau Germany was Maria Catharine Eckhardt nee Fisch of Beuren.  Mary's maternal grandparents were Georg and Martha (Woelling) Fisch.  Martha emigrated from Ellenberg, Germany with the Brethauers (Mary and her parents, Heinrich and Catharine (nee Fisch) Brethauer) in 1882.  I don't know anything else about the Eckhardts, just the Brethauers.  Hope this helps!</description>

      <description>My great great grandfather was Frederick (spelling unknown) Eckhardt.  He came from Koenigsberg after fighting in 2 or 3 Prussian wars.  The name Ameila Stubbe sounds familiar, so maybe this is right Frederick.  He ended up in Minnesota.   I do know that Frederick's son, Charles, or "Chas" Eckhardt was my great grandfather.  He was married to Julia Strand.  Their son, Carl Eckhardt was my grandfather.  I don't know when the Eckhardts ended up Minnesota.  If any of this sounds familiar, please let me know.</description>

      <description>I too have Eckhardt ancestors from the Thuringia area, from a town called Dankmarschausen.  My ancestor Conrad Eckhardt immigrated around 1856 into NYC and his father went to Canada I believe.  Conrad also had two brothers that went to Elkhart, Indiana.  Does any of that sound familiar?</description>

      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.eckhardt/161/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>I am looking for information on a Philip Eckhardt, born around 1832 in Germany.  He married Mary Heckerman in 1853 in Cuyahoga County, Ohio and had 7 children: Anna, Louisa, Adam, August, Katie, Amelia, and Lydia.  There is a Philip or John Philip Eckhardt on a census from 1850 in Dover, Ohio with a birthdate around 1826.  His parents are listed as F.L.C. and Ann, siblings are Catherine &amp;amp; Louisa. I found this family's ship's passenger list from 1835 which lists additional siblings: Lewis Charles, Elizabeth, Charles, George, and Mary.  I can not verify if this is the same Philip Eckhardt.  Any info would be appreciated.</description>

      <description>Hope your still looking for Eckhardt family.  I, too am looking for a Eckhardt line.  My line, Van Eckhardt.  I have found that a lot of the time is listed as Eckhardt.  My line goes to Canada and then back down the east coast America.  My father, Herman Van Eckhardt lived in Virginia and also Washington District of Columbia.  Please let me know if you can help.&lt;br&gt;Paul Peters&lt;br&gt;PS.  There is an instance of a Frank Smits Van Eckhardt and, I think wife into New York.  However, it appears they moved in California.  I've found lots of VanEckhardt family in California.  They say there are no relatives that lived in Virginia.</description>

      <description>My great grandfather, George Ferdinand Eckhardt, was born in Dover, Ohio, according to the 1850 census. His mother, my great, great grandmother, was Catherine Eckhardt, who was born in the early 1820s in Germany. Catherine had another son, Charles, who was born in 1840. Catherine was listed in the 1850 census in Dover as being widowed. Catherine also had another person living with them named Lewis. Some of these names, dates and places seem to overlap with those in your query. I did not find Philip or John Philip Eckhardt in the 1850 census in Dover, Ohio. Please let me know if you have found out additional information that may time these names together.</description>

      <description>Are you sure of your dates?  My grandfather's name was Louis Eckhardt and he had at least six children with my grandmother, Catherine Byrne.  If he was born in 1855 he would have been more than twenty years older than her.  She was left alone and the children were separated and raised in foster homes and institutions starting in about 1918.   I am not sure whether Louis left or, possibly, may have died in the influenza outbreak in New York.   It is possible the younger children did not remember older siblings.  My mother and her sister were together as children and throughout life.  The children's names (the younger ones) were John, Leonard, (my mother) Camille (Carmela), and Marguerite (Margaret).  After my mother's  death, my father said he knew of two older sisters.   </description>

      <description>Our Eckardt's came to the US in 1923 from the Thuringia area of Germany.  It appears that we are not connected to your Eckharts.  Sorry we couldn't help with your search.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Rooty</description>

      <title>Eckhart/Eckhardts in Ohio in the 19th Century</title>
      <link>http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.eckhardt/153/mb.ashx</link>
      <description>Hi,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Myself and my husband are doing research on his family roots, particularly his father's side of the family, the Eckharts. We know that his great-grandfather was Henry P. Eckhart (originally Eckhardt) who was born approx. 1833.  He came over from Hanover, Saxony, Germany in 1846 with his two brothers Charles W. (born 1841) and William (1839) and his sister Lavina (1844).  Henry married Sarah Judd and lived in Scioto county and had a least nine children. Charles fought in the civil war.  We know that their father was also Henry.  At some stage, according to the 1850 census, a woman called Louisa Eckhart also lived with them and another child called Elmyra Eckhart.  We think she might have been their mother.  We are looking for more information on their origins in Germany.  We cannot find them on any passenger lists around that time.  We are currently living in Berlin in Germany and would love to find their original home so that we can visit it.  Also, my husband's father is now 85 and he would really love to find out more about his family.  I would really appreciate any help at all.  We have kind of hit a wall these last few days. Many thanks in advance!</description>
