Surnames: Kuechler, Heim
I found my great grandfather (Jacob Kuechler death certificate which tells me he came from Langen, the Province of Itghem, Darnstadt, Empire of Germany, which I believe is Hesse Darnstadt now. He was born about the 26th of July, 1829 and died July 18, 1889 in Chicago, IL. He was married in Germany to Magdalena Schaefer from Offenberg, Baden-Wurttemburg who was born in 1830 and they came over in 1868 with at least 6 children so must have been married in the late 1850s. My grandmother, Margaretha Kuechler Heim was born in 1870 in Chicago. They lived in Chicago, Lincoln Park area at 339 Clveland Ave.

Can anyone connect to the place of origin of Langen, Darnstadt?

Hi Marge
It's been a long time since we talked "Kuechlers". The only piece of info I have is that our Lewis J. Kuechler came from Hessen Darmstadt and I haven't gotten any further:) Have you ever run across a Gustave, son of our Lewis?

Good to hear from you again. Did your Lewis or Gustav come to Chicago? Where are you located? I know there were some Kuechlers in St. Louis, Mo. area. I don't have any other info on my Jacob Fred Kuechler except what I posted. I am looking for 2 sisters who were Herths and mother was sister to my grandmother Margaretha Kuechler Heim. I did some other Kuechlers at the same church in Chicago-St. Jacobi's (now St. James) Luth. Church in Chicago in their old neighborhood. I am going to email the church again for more info. so if you think they might have been in Chicago, I can find out for you.
