Re:Klabunde of Douglas County,NE
Hi, I'm currently compiling information for my family, the "Labs". Ferdinand Labs was a founding member of the Zion Luthern church near Bennington and married a Heinrietta Klabunde whose family were also founding members of the same church.Ferdinand was my great,great grandfather. Any information anyone can contribute concerning the Klabunde family history in this area would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Cindy, Thanks for your reply. Of the Klabunde's I have come across so far the earliest I have seen is Heinrietta Klabunde and she was born : 03/06/1837 and died 01/17/1904. I am still trying to find out your parents names. The Klabunde name is interwoven in the family history of the Labses. For instance there was a Augusta Hock who married a Wilhelm Klabunde April 25,1983.Wilhelm died in 1892 and Augusta, with 2 children from that union, married a Carl Labs. Emil Klabunde sounds familiar as though I have come across it but I have forgotten. I will keep my eyes open for the names and dates you have provided and will let you know if I come across something that may benefit you. You can contact me by emailing directly, if you prefer.

Cindy, I know this is an old post, but if you are still watching this board, I am interested in the names you mentioned because they match much of my research. Possibly: your great grandfather Emil, son of Wilehlm, brother of Herman F.W. Klabunde - my 3rd great grandfather. Herman and Wilhelm also had a sister that I can't find, but I do know her married name was something like Grantien. Carl Klabunde (1816) and wife Caroline Zemke (1820) were their parents. Let me know if this seems like a match so we can share whatever information we each have. Thanks! Kenneth Klabunde
