Hi, Mary Binford. I am on this line, also. My dear Richard Louis Toebbe Jr. died on May 15, 2000, as I suppose you know. Heinrich or Henry is our search object, as I know you want to get him to Germany also. Let me know. I am probably not going to be back in St. Joseph Missouri too soon. I was in Maryland, where Richard is buried, in Baltimore, MD. Nice talking to you.

Hello I have a Toebbe line also. Edward and Elizabeth Moller Toebbe. Elizabeth is listed as born in Mehrsen Hannover Germany on Sept 1821. She was still in Germany in 1845. By 1849 they are in St. Louis MO, and by 1856 they are in Quincy IL, Elizabeth died in Quincy IL. in March 1899.
Some of her descendents are found in Los Angeles CA (1906) and in Kansas City MO (1924)
The name should be spelled Többe in Germany.

My grandfather is Bernard Toebbe who lives in Louisville,KY and his father was Bernard Herman Toebbe and was married to Catherine Theiller who is buried in St Michaels cemetery in Louisville(there are several Toebbes buried there). What little story I have is that two brothers immigrated and argued over how to spell their last name and the brothers split one spelling the last name Toebbe the other Tobbe. I have found that there are a number of Toebbes' in the Covington area that are related and Ironically through the history their children are named alike...ei Bernard Herman, Bernard Joseph, Catherine, Henry, Albert...etc. I will have to dig up some on my info. It's been awhile and two moves since I've had it out. Just let me know.

My wife's grandmother was Lucinda Tobbe (note the spelling) daughter of Benjamin Bernard Tobbe Jr..I am not sure whether Benjamin or Bernard is the first name. This family lived in Louisville although Bernard and Lucinda were both born in Ferdinand, Dubois County Indiana. I am not sure of the connection to the Henry Toebbe mentioned on this thread. Bernard Benjamin did have a brother named Henry that was born in Dubois County in 1857. I think the spellings Toebbe and Tobbe were used somewhat interchangeably. I imagine that is because the original spelling in Germany probably had the umlaut over the "o". If someone wants to share info on Tobbe's that came from Germany to Dubois County, I would love to make contact.
