My maternal Grandmother was Jenny Pfefferle from Bremen, Indiana. She and her husband, William Arthur Rizor, died in a housefire there on 3 Dec. 1930, leaving 7 children orphaned, including my then 9 month-old Mother. Jenny was from a large family, which included brothers Ben and Albert ("Doc"), and sisters Ruby and Erma. There were others whom I never met. Am interested in any information on the famlily~origins, different branches, etc. Thank You!

My maternal grandfather was Raymond Carl Pfefferle. He would have been a brother to your grandmother Jenny, although I didn't have her name. The other siblings I knew of were Ben, Albert, and John Herbert. Their parents (our great-grandparents) were John Herbert Pfefferle and Rosa Huss. There are at least 3 generations of John Herbert Pfefferle. Also the Albert (middle Delbert) is used in several generations, with the nickname "Doc". My uncle Doc traced back the Docs. They have all served in the army back to the Civil War.

Yes, John Herbert could have been born then, but I cannot confirm it. My grandfather, Raymond Carl was his brother and was born in 1906. I show John H. as having 4 children: Bert, John H., Albert, Nelson. The son John H. also had at least 4 children: Sharon, Deborah (is that you?), Darlene, Carolyn. Nelson, who I met years ago and who my mother knew well, had 6 children: Dean, Mark, Julia, Robert, Laura, Paula. I met them when I was a child and Dean again about 15 years ago. He had 3 children at that time: Ryan, Rachel, Miles

Catherine,
I have quite a lot of information on the Pfefferle family. My father's name is Albert Delbert Pfefferle (Doc). It is a name and a nickname with a long history in the Pfefferle family. His father's name is Raymond Pfefferle born in Bremen, In. on 12/23/1906. I have much more information in a booklet I received at a family reunion about ten years ago in Ladysmith Wi. Feel free to contact me at ebefam@verizon.net. I can at least give you contact information to others in my family who would know more than I do.
