I to am looking for information on the Eibens. I have Gerd W Eiben being born in Updorf, germany 1/10/1836.
Married to Christina Von Beeston. They did have 14 children
one of which was Toenjes Cornelius. My Grandmother was
Maria Johanna born 9/19/1881 in Iowa. I have not had any luck finding any previous ancestors or anything about the Von Beestons. Gerd and Christina are buried in Bowens Praire
Cemetery near Monticello.
