Hi Julie,
We are definately cousins. Valentine Feider and Anna Jux are my great-great grandparents. My great grandfather, Stanislaus Feider, and Maria Feider Fittkau are 2 of their children. My grandfather, Andrew Feider, and Hedwig Feider Fittkau are 1st cousins. My mom, Dorothy Feider Moloney, and your grandmother, Martha Pierre Morris, are 2nd cousins, and so on.
Were you ever able to find out much about Anna Jux? I don't think the other family members, who are also working on geneology, haven't been able to find out much about her side of the family. One family member seems to have found that Anna was married to Valintine Feider's brother who passed away at an early age. Afterwhich, Anna married Valentine -- though I haven't seen the supporting documents.
I sent you a FB message a couple of weeks ago. At the time I wrote it I mistakenly believed that Martha Pierre was your mother instead of your grandmother, althought looking back I should have figured I was missing a generation based on Martha's birth in 1912. This evening I found your grandmother's obituary from the Spokesman Review online which helped clear up my understanding of the lineage.
By the way my brother is Terry Moloney. Yes, the one you know from Gonzaga. He says he still runs into your brother, Steve?, and his family at church in Wenatchee.
Lastly, another reason's I was trying to contact you is to inform you of our upcoming Feider Family Reunion in Pomeroy on July 11th. There's a FB page called Feider Family Reunion which you can look at for details. And please let others in your family know about it, too.
Hope someday we'll meet!
Shawn Moloney
