Hi, We've had contact before but I wanted to tell you I have a William Gnaden who was born in abt 1860 in Danville,Vermillion Co, IL . His parents were August Gnaden and Sophia Goldenbaum both born in Germany. William had three sisters, and three brothers, that I have found. But the latest I have for any of the children, is 1868. Anna Gnaden who was my great great grandmother was born in Germany but apparently the rest were born in the U.S.A. Best Wishes, Roberta Hendricks
