Marjorie, my great granmother is Mary Esau, wife of Frank Vogt. On a 1900 census for Hamilton County, Farmers Valley precint, Frank Vogt and Mary Esau Vogt are shown on the same page as Anna Esau, and children, Peter, Frank Cornelus, John and John's wife Elizabeth. My Mary Esau is shown as being born Apr 1880, and an immigrant of Russia. This Anna is is shown as immigrating in 1884 from Russia, an as a widow. Do you have any information to connect my Mary Esau Vogt to this Anna, and is this the same family you're dealing with? Dave in Stockton, Ca

Hello David, Yes that is our family. Anna and Jacob came to the US in 1884 aboard the ship Oder. Their name is listed as ESSAU Jacob came with Anna and they lived in Hamilton Co., NE.Jacob died in 1895, Anna in 1903. They are both buried in the Farmer's Valley Cem. in Hamilton Co., NE. Dale ESAU in NM. is also a cousin doing research. We did not have much info on Marie(Mary). I am so happy yoou were able to get in touch with me. I will send Dale your address and will give you any information that you don't have on the family. Anna ESAU's family is pretty well documented. She was a DAHLKE At one time they were all Mennonites. Also a cousin in PA is doing research and would love to make comtact with you. My e-mail address is MWeigel349@aol.com Please write to me there so I can get the info to you. Marge

Re: Esau Family for, the Molotschna Colony
Hi, My name is Dan (Daniel) Esau and my grandfather was Frank Esau. I believe his father was Jacob Esau and his mother Anna Dahlke. My father, Wayne Clinton Esau was born in College View, NE on 20 April 1911 and passed away in Santa Barbara CA on 17 Sept 1988. My Dad had a brother Clarence and two sisters, Pearl and Louise. My grandmother was Katherina Kroeker.
Is there any more information that I can help you with?
I have recently tried to put some of this data in my data base, so I am just starting.
Best regards, Dan

Could you tell me what you have on the Dahlke line? My family also immigrated on the Oder (as I'm told but no docs yet) My Grandmother was a Dahlke who lived in NB. She married a Welke. She had 1/2 siblings. Great Grandpa Dahlke raised sheep. Great grandma married twice, she was a nurse. Any help would be great.

Re: Esau Family for, the Molotschna Colony
Looking for info on the Esau family (Heinrich Esau 4/11/1869 - 1/6/1925 and his first wife Margareta Bergmann 4/20/1871 - 9/22/1907) who lived in a village called Gnadental, in the Molotschna Colony in Ukraine. Does anyone know who Heinrich's and Margareta's parents were? Their daughter Anna Esau is my maternal grandmother. She married Gerhard Reimer 3/18/1928 in Gnadental. By 1929, they'd escaped Russia, and were in Harbin, China (Manchuria), and 8/13/30 arrived in the US, settling in California. Does anyone have info on the other descendents of Heinrich Esau and his first wife Margareta Bergmann, or his second wife after Margareta died and he remarried and had 6 more children. What has become of them? The names of Heinrich and Margareta's children are as follows: - Margareta Esau 1896-1969 - married Kornelius Fast; - Maria Esau 1897-? - married Franz Lowen; - Heinrich Esau 1898-1958 - married Lena Berg; - Jakob Esau 1899 - 1940's killed during WWII - married Agnes Teichrob; - Helena Esau 1901-1976 - married Gerhard Warkentin - Anna Esau 1903-1950 - married Gerhard Reimer
