Looking for information about the family of Conrad Kaib b.1828 d. 1902 and his wife Regina b.1830 d.1902. They are buried in Pittsburgh, PA but I am interested in where they lived before coming to Pittsbugh. Any information on the family would be very helpful.

Bill, Thank you, thank you for all that information. You need to look on Manuela Kaib's homepage from Germany. She was born in Hesse and is also researching the family. This takes us one step closer to her research over there. Home homepage is: http://www.kaib.de

Patti, I am related to both Conrad Kaib and John Kaib. John was my G.Grandfather, and Conrad was my G.G.Grandfather.
My G.Grandmother was Sophia M. Fuchs.
Their daughter Sophia (my Grandmother) was married to my Grandfather, Frank (Franz) Biel.

I guess we're related !

1870 census - Buffalo, NY -- Biehls & Keibs on same census page

Bill, the 1870 census in Buffalo is showing a "clump" of BIEHLs and KEIBs (with those spellings) living on the same street. One of the KEIBs is Sophia M. (age 22) with husband, John KEIB (age 27). Two houses away are BIEHLs that include my great grandmother, Marie Agathe "Aget" BIEHL (age 10), and her sister, Julia BIEHL (age 17). Julia's granddaughter (age 91) is still alive. Should we take a look at this off-board?

1870 census in Buffalo, Erie Co., NY:

John KEIB, 27, from Hesse Darmstadt, works starch factory
Sohpia M. KEIB, 20, from England, keeps house
Otto KEIB, 2, born NY
John R. KEIB, 9 mos., born NY

On same page with Adam KEIB (from Hesse Darmstadt), age 62; wife Margaret; and children.

On same page with John BIEHL (age 42, from Prussia) and household. John BIEHL was married to Julia KEIB, but she is not in the household as of 1870. An Elizabeth BIEHL, age 24, is the female keeping house. Don't know if Elizabeth is a daughter, second wife, or other BIEHL relative.

Bill, please click on Bree for my email address and lets look at the KEIB and BIEHL connections by email. Either we have some bizarre coincidences or we are related through both surnames. My ancestry is out of Buffalo, NY, but I was raised north of Pgh. We need to see whether we can piece this together. Thx.
