I am a descendant of Jacob Nibbe (b1819) and Meta Stehr (b1816)
Their children were Maria Nibbe Bade Gerdau(1st husband Jacob Bade and then married to John Gerdau), Jacob John who married Mary Siebrasse, John Henry who married Elizabeth Dahling, John who married Barbara Katz, Peter Nibbe who married Margaret Schuyler, Herman Nibbe who married Margaret Diercks,
John Henry (known as J.H) was my greatgrandfather. He and Elizabeth had 15 children who grew to adulthood. John (married Florence McLaren), Fred (married Lulu Haas), Louise (married Dan McHugh), Henry (married Ruth Selvage), George (died at age 22), Clara (married Bernard Johnson), Lydia (married Harry Beilfuss), Anna (married John Rehder), Margaret, Peter (married Alvina Augustine), Clarence (married Rowena McNamara), Florence, Raymond ,
Walter (married Miriam Nelson), Blanche (married Frank Jebram).
Jacob's son Peter lived in New York but the other children of Jacob and Metta lived their adult lives in the Goodhue County area.
I am particularly interested in any information about Peter's descendants. He had two sons, Harry A. and John E. and a granddaughter Magdalena.
Thanks
Peggy
