Surnames: Poepping or Popping
I am looking for the Birth /Bapt of Anna Catharina Poepping, who married Ludwig Henrich Esker on 12 May 1835 at St Lambert's Roman Catholic church in Coesfeld, Coesfeld Kreis, Westfalen, Prussia. Her age as listed in the parish records for that period as microflimed by the LDS as Film No 872-011 on page 74 indicate her age as 25. Her father's place of residence was shown to be Stockum, Billerbeck, Westfalen Prussia.Who were her parents?
In the Parish records of St Johannis, Billerbeck page 45, LDS Film No 862-454 line 14, is listed the banns of marriage as publihed at mass in the church on 10 May 1835. Also is listed her place of residence as Reken, Billerbeck, Westfalen, Prussia.
Per parish records of St Lambert's Coesfeld, she died 18 Dec 1851 and was buried from St Lambert's
She was the mother of five chlidren namely Henrich Esker,Elisabeth Esker, Anton Joseph Esker, Franz Bernard Esker and Maris Catharina Gertrud Esker. All born from 1836 thru 1849.
Ludwig Henrich then married at St Lambert's on 22 May 1852 a widow Catharina Haase widow Klumper, she died 9 Apr 1857.
This family Esker all emmigrated to America with the father and his three sons arriving last on 15 Nov 1858 at New Orleans aboard the ship E.F.Gabain. This family with the two son in laws Franz Goeckner and Bernard Sietmann settled on farms in Bishop Twp Effingham Co. Illinois and are buried at St Francis of Assis Parish Teutotpolis and St Aloysius at Bishop Creek, all in Effingham Co IL.
Our main concern at this time is to locate the parents and family (brothers and sisters of ) Anna Catharina Poepping.
The Poepping name is well known in Billerbeck and Coesfeld Kries of Westfalen even today.............
