I'm just curious where the line goes. My grandfather was Joseph Eugene Glab b.Nov. 28, 1919 in Dubuque, IA. I was wondering who is parents were so on and so forth. Maybe to know where the name Glab came from, if it was shorten or respelled. Do all the spellings of Glab-Glaab-Glaub come from the same line? Email--beather@earthlink.net subject "GLAB" Thank you

Heather, I have a document that explains the Glab family line in Bavaria. It was written by a Bavarian lady in the early 1990's, and she spells it Glab. My ancestor Joseph spelled it Glab on a land record, but spelled it Glaub also. E-mail me if you want it.

Did you ever find out his parents' names? I'm researching my gmother's Glab line. She had brothers George b. 1874 and Frank J. b. 1875. One of them (I don't know which yet!) married woman named Minnie, and they had 9 sons. If either of those names rings a bell, get in touch and we'll compare more info.

My grandfather's ancestors came from Germany and settled in Cincinnati, Ohio. Wondered if you have made any progress on your family line. It doesn't appear that our lines intertwine.

Hi Mary,

Not sure if you've made any progress since your 2003 post. Here's what I know about what you mentioned.

Frank John Glab Sr. married Wilhelmina (Minnie) Frederica Sass 25 Jun 1902.

Frank Sr.'s parents were Franz J "Francis" Glab & Margaret Schilling (md 19 Aug 1865)

Franz's parents were Christoph Glab & Elizabeth Jager ('a' in Jager has an umlaut).

I can go further back a generation or two if you are interested.

Hi Heather,

Not sure if you've found anything further on the Glab line since your 2001 post. Here's what I know.

Joseph Eugene Glab married Mary Kathleen Burke md 28 Nov 1944.

Joseph's parents were Maurice (sometimes Morris) Paul Glab and Mary Veronica Roth.

Maurice's parents were Johann ("John") Glab and Louisa Katherine Wagner md 7 Dec 1861 in Dubuque, Iowa.

Johann's parents were Christoph Glab & Elizabeth Jager ('a' in Jager has an umlaut in it).

I have additional info and a few generation or two more further back if you are still interested.
