Hi, Keith, I am also researching the Goeb surname, most recently in the Daun/Schleiden/Aachen area. I had received some information from a distant cousin in Cologne showing that some Goebs back in the 1600s were in the Unterfranken area which I believe is the Bavaria area. That's about the only clue I have that there might be some connection.

Dear Keith, My name is Thomas Sullivan,OSB, and I'm a monk of Conception Abbey. My second great grandfather was Joseph Goeb from Schleiden in Germany. My paternal grandmother, Harriet Goeb Sullivan told me I had relations who were monks at Saint John's Abbey in Collegeville, Minnesota. I've been trying to establish what the connection between these Goebs and my Goeb family (who lived in Chicago and in suburbs).

This is a longshot after all these years but in case you get this email it would be interesting to hear from you. I'd be happy to hand over any information I have regardless of whether you can help me in my search.

Cordially,

Thomas Sullivan, OSB

Dear Thomas Sullivan, OSB

I think I can help you some on your request for more information on the Goeb's who were monks at Saint John's Abbey in Collegeville, Minnesota.

I had 2 great uncles that had studied there:
Cuthbert Goeb - 1893 - 1973 Born St. Michael, MN
Egbert Goeb - 1902 - 1985 Born St. Michael, MN
Their father was John Goeb, born 1862 in Altmannsdorf, Bavaria, Germany. He had a brother Jacob, born 1856.

I am not sure of a relation in Chicago unless they had another relative that immigrated and settled there. If you could provide any info you have on the Chicago Goeb's, that would be greatly appreciated.

Please let me know if you have an questions and if this is helpful.

Thank you.
Scott Goeb

Hi, Scott,
My mother was interested in Cuthbert Goeb cuz she was always checking phonebooks for people named Goeb and she had found an article on Cuthbert marrying a couple...I think somebody broke their leg. To my knowledge there is no relationship but we will solve that with the DNA test...my cousin said Yes!
