I'm trying to track down Jacob Leu. He was born in Switzerland, don't know the date.
I believe he married Wilhelmina Abegg in St Louis, MO in 1858 although the Jacob Leu who lived in St Louis would have been pretty young. Wilhelmina had a daughter, Margaret, in Iowa (1859/60), and returned to Switzerland where her second child, Jacob, was born (1861/2), before returning to the US married to Elias Raas (sometimes transcribed as Raaz). They lived in Iowa in 1870. Her 2 kids used either Raas or Leu as surnames in ensuing years.
Does anyone know about the Jacob Leu who lived in St Louis? Did he marry young and then divorce? (Do I just have the wrong Wilhelmina? I don't think I do, but...)
Thank you.
