I am searching for others researching their German Gauch roots. My line consists of Michael Gauch (d.1849) m.Angelica Bermes (b.1796 d.1865) Their children are Jacob, Louisa, Charlotte, Christian, Fred, Elizabeth and Lena. I believe they are from Einselthum, Bavaria.

Re: Gauch Family in Germany
My mother's maiden name was Gauch and my ancestor was Christian Gauch, born in Albisheim 9.2.1794. His father was Johann Peter Gauch. He married Maria Elizabetha Wendel from Russingen on 8.11.1816 They had 3 children, Johannes 13.9.1817, Johann Jacob 1.08.1819, Christian Ludwig 31.10.1821 all born and registered in Albisheim. Maria died within a year and Christian remarried ,Elizabetha Reis(Ross) 2.11.1823 in Albisheim. This union produced Maria Magdelina 1.10.1824, Phillipina 3.2.1826, Phillip Adam 1.05.1829 all born in Albisheim. They emigratred to the U.S. in 1833-34 a child was born on board ship named Georg and the last child Henry was born in Conn. By 1838 they hada made their way to Bellville, Il. where they remained. I have found them on the 1850 census in Belleville. I am trying to obtain Christian's naturalization documents right now. Hope this helps your research.

Re: Gauch Family in Germany
Do you know any information about Christian's father, Johann Peter Gauch and his siblings? The area in Bavaria is where my people are from, also with the names Johann and Christian in the family. Could Johann Peter possibly be brother to my Carl Gauch d.1849,married to Angelica Bermes b. 1796?

Re: Gauch Family in Germany
It appears your Christian (not Peter) and my Carl may have been brothers... Hopefully I will get the chance to go to the LDS genealogy library within the next week or two, and see if I can obtain records to support the theory.
