Looking for info on Goebig's from Bavaria/Germany

Looking for info on Goebig's from Bavaria/Germany

My great-great-great grandfather Conrad Goebig was born in 1830 in what we believe is some part of Bavaria, and at some point emigrated to the U.S. He lived in Elgin, IL for some time (we have records of him owning a bakery in Elgin in 1871, etc). We have pretty much completed the U.S. side of the Goebig family tree from the point Conrad emigrated here. What we are lacking is information from the homeland (ie his brothers, sisters, parents, grandparents, etc).

Can anyone help with a family tree going back from there?

Thanks in advance.

Mike,

I'm afraid I don't have any information beyond what you have. I just started working on this. I am descended from Ida Goebig and George Mertz. There are a few census records with Conrad on them.
