My ancestors, Anton and Maria Gschwend immigrated to this country in 1882 from St. Gallen, Switzerland. Their children were Maria Magdeline Gschwend, (my great grandmother), Ida Gschwend, Emma Gschwend, Frieda Gschwend, and Joseph Gschwend. They lived on the North Side of Pittsburgh, called Allegheny City at that time. I am looking for anyone who may be a descendant or knows anything about them to email me at bmccusker@email.msn.com

My mother-in-laws maiden name is Gschwend and in her family tree there is a Anton and Maria Gschwend with brothers and sisters names Ida, Joseph, etc. This might be the same families. The branch I'm talking about settled in Arkansas.

Please reply if you want more information.

Hello Jean,

I am curious to see if this is a connection. Do you have dates for your Anton and Maria Gschwend?

I will be happy to send you the information that I have on my great great grandparents if you would like to email me at bmccusker@email.msn.com.

Keep in Touch!
Beth

My grandfather was Johann Karl Gschwend, born in 1874 (Feb 5), in Brienz Switzerland. His parents were Karl Engelbert Martin Gschwend (born on May 2, 1832) and Anna Schild. Karl's parents were Gall Joseph Gschwend (born 2.2.1794 ) and Maria Agatha Marschall (born June 9 1807).

This may be of no help to connect our respective ancestors. But it may entice others to reply.
Any comments?

Regards,
Heinz W. Gschwend

Hello Heinz,

My great great grandfather, Anton Gschwend was born September 19, 1838 and his wife, Maria Magdeline Gschwend was born June 17, 1841 in Switzerland. They came to the United States in 1882-83 and settled in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. All of their children were born in Switzerland. I recently emailed a Bruno Gschwend in Switzerland, but have yet received no reply. I am hoping to find someone in Switzerland who knew the Gschwend family. If you would like to email me directly, my email is bmccusker@email.msn.com.

Donna;
I think we might be relatives but first are your ancestors from what part of Arkansas and did any of them live in Pekin, Illinois.
Our ancestors are from Ponahontas, Arkansas and there were some from Pekin, Illinois.
If so, I will have lots of names and dates for you. Also, I would like to have what you have.

Thanks Cous(maybe)
