I don't know very much about Garrot Pelster I. He was born about 1800 in Eversivenkel, Ostbeven, Germany. He was married to Elizabeth Oldenburger born March 31, 1803, in Sassenberg, Ostbeven, Germany. They were married about 1825 in Germany. Garrot and Elizabeth came to America about 1852. Garrot died about 1870.
Garrot's parents were Heinrich Bernard Pelster and A.M. Becker. I only have two brothers for Garrot: Anton b. 1807--emigrated between 1814-1820-married to Gertrude Besteling. George Henrick b. October 29, 1812. This information was taken from the Westphalia Emigration List year; 1835. Left Germany 1835 #4522
There is a Rosina Pelster married to a John Bernard Feldman with 1 child-July 9, 1838, that was found in Trevistinger in south Munster. I would suspect that Rosina is an English form of Gessina. Beyond that I have nothing on her. My guess is they could be related. I did NOT do this research. This comes from research a cousin did. She was pretty through but there are some mistakes as with most research. I have written down what she presented. I do not know much about Ohio as I have only been there once and that was in southern Ohio. I did know Fort Loramie was called Berlin at one time. I also understand a huge number of Germans emigrated to Ohio because of economic and civil problems in the 19th century. I have also found in my research that families tended to move together. I guess the last one out of town had to turn out the lights! My ancestors headed west in the late 1870s. We will celebrate 125 years in Nebraska this summer with a reunion.
Hopefully this can help you find and/or verify some of your research.
