This may be of some help: there was a Kuschel family that lived in the Buckman, MN (Morrison county I think)and there still may be relatives there. They owned a large farm there during last century. People use to think they were my relatives, but they are not. My surname is a variant, but has been spelled this way for over 100 years. Suggest you contact the Morrison County Historical Society in Little Falls, MN. Good luck!

I thank you for the info. I did contact a family last year to no avail. Will have to dig through my info to see if it's the same area or not. It has been difficult as I cannot track them in any of the census'. Thanks again. B. Parish

What type of documents did the names show up on for Inez & Joseph? Were they recent immigrants, or did they come from another state/country? Have you tried neighboring counties in MN? Some settlers liked to move and others did not want to be counted in the census. I will check my info. also about the Morrison Kuschel's. There still are quite a few Kuschel's here.

I am currently doing research on the Kuschel bunch from Morrison Co. MN, and surrounding areas. I ran into MN naturalization records that show a Joseph Kuschel with wife Bertha in Travers Co. MN. Let me know if this helps. I bet your Kuschels and mine tie in somewhere. lydia@usinternet.com

Oh my gosh. I do have a Bertha. Am leaving on a trip to Ireland and was just cking my mail. Will have to dig out my stuff when I get back. I hope this works as I have been stuck for so long trying to fit the pieces together. Until later...Barb

In 1880 and 1990 census, they were located in Wisconsin. In 1910 they (the parents) were in Folsum Township, Mn. I see a reference to Morris, but that might mistakenly be Morrison instead. Josephs father is also Joseph, married to Bertha Mallneg. Siblings: Wm., Edward, Clemens, Erdna, Ida, Maria, Albertena (called Tena).

Hi Barb:
There is a Morris, MN; it is located on the west side of the state not far from the big bend on the border near the Dakota's.
I would tend to favor Morrison, as in Morrison county because the Kuschels of Buckman, were in the region not far from the county seat of Little Falls, MN.
Let me know if I can look anything up for you.

Fosston and Fossum are towns SE of Grand Forks in northwestern part of MN. Folsum I'm not familiar with--it doesn't sound familiar at all.

I have just started genealogy research and am looking for any information on my Grandfather Joseph Kuschel (m. Bertha Malueg, m. Augusta Gearheardt). Does anyone know how I can find out where any of them lived in Germany or how I can proceed to gather information?
