Kah in Scioto Co, OH (same family also in Pittsburgh NY)
Would like to know which Wiget boy, Lucy Kah married. I'm researching the Wiget line, but do have Lucy Kah Wiget's death cert, mother's obit, and father's name. Two of her mother's brothers lived in Pittsburgh, PA and one in New York in 1901)

Oops: Not Kah in Pittsburgh NY, but Clise/Cleis/Glieb
Sorry, it wasn't the Kahs in Pittsburg and NY, it was Katherine/Catharine Cleis/Clise/Glieb's brothers in Pittsburg and NY. Catharine Cleis was the wife of Mathias Kah. She was born 1835 in Lutzelstein, near Zabern in Unter-Elsasse, Germany.

Hi - I'm researching the 'Clise' family and would appreciate any further info you might have. Thanks!

Clise / Cleis / Gleib in Scioto Co OH, Pittsburgh PA, New York in 1913
Dee,
I don't have a lot! But here it is: ============== Source: Obit from the Portsmouth Correspondent (German newspaper of Scioto Co, OH) KAHN, KATHARINE, 30 Aug 1901, page 8:4. Died on Saturday evening shortly before 11:30 from a stroke; nee Gleib; she ws born on 11 Aug 1835 in Lutzelstein, near Zabern in Unter-Elsasse; she was 9 years old when her parents came to America and settled in Pittsburgh; in 1854 she came to Portsmouth with the Wolf family; in 1856 she married Mathias Kah who survives her; she also leaves behind 4 sons (Jakob, Georg, John, and Charles) and a daughter (Mrs. Lucy Wiget), and 3 brothers, 2 of whom live in Pittsburgh and 1 in New York; the funeral was on Tuesday afternoon from the First German Presbyterian Church. ============== Source: Scioto County, OH marriage records (on-line version) Mathias Kah married Catharine Clise in Scioto County, Ohio April 24, 1856. ============ Source: Lucy C. Wiget's death certificate She was born 24 Mar 1870 in Ohio (probably Scioto Co); died 16 Mar 1913 of tuberculosis at 1523 Grandview, Portsmouth, Scioto Co, OH. Her parents were named as: Mathias Kah, born Germany and Catherine Cleis, born Germany. Informant was John E. Kah of Portsmouth, Scioto County, Ohio. She was buried at Greenlawn Cemetery, Scioto Co, OH. =========
My interest is in the Wigets. I need to know which Wiget boy married Lucy C. Kah, daughter of Mathias Kah and Catherine Cleis.
I hope this helps you, Dee. If you come across Lucy Kah's husband's first name, please let me know. Good luck in your search.
