Hello: I'm afraid I'm of no help to you - I believe this is a different family. Although my family lived in Dubuque and my grandfather's name was Alois (b.1856), nothing else matches. My family emigrated from the village of Weistannen, Switzerland. Yours may have left from a another village. I have seen the given name Conrad in my Research but I have never followed this line. Sorry I can't be of more assistance. John Pfiffner

Alois is from Weisstannen Switzerland, his Parents where
Philip Pfiffner (1825-1889) and Catharina Tschirgi (1829-1906)
he had nine brother and sisters, at least one, Philip 1861-1938) came to the USA also.

Hi Andrea,

I have recently found out that my great grandparents are Gustav and Augusta Pfiffner. I have an old photo of them with their children, including Edmond. I am not sure who my grandmother/father is yet but I have limited it down. I was adopted (closed adoption) and found out through DNA that I am related to Pfiffner's. Not quite sure how yet. But DNA does link me to Gustav and Augusta through a cousin I found. Let me know if you would like the information I have.
