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?
