I have a Martha Torbeck maiden name is Martha Stoppenhagen..she was born in 1902 in Indiana

Jennifer: I have Torbeck information on the Torbeck family line, but do not have your Martha. Do you have any other information on Torbeck (s)?
|
I also have very little info on the Torbeck side....am looking for someone who may have more. My great great grandmother was Christina Sophia Torbeck, born March 26,1879....she married to a John F. Honke in 1897......any info you could share would be appreciated. Thank You

Earliest I have is Christian Friedrich Torbeck no birth date, married 1784 to Anna Marie Junsohr. They had:
Johann Adolph Friedrich Jacob Wilhelm Dorothea Friederike Ernst Christoph Dorothee Elisabeth Anna Dorothea Gerhard Rudolph
Gerhard Rudolph is my line, born 12-4-1797 married Anna Sophia Margarete Koithan and had:
Heinrich Rudolph Dorothea Elise Elise Dorothee Margarete Johanne Dorthee Friederike Margarete Charlotte Sophia Heinrich Wilhelm
Heinrich Wilhelm is my gr-grandfather and waw born 4-29-1841 and married Sophia Laars. They had: Charlotte Marie Claire Lottie Henry Friedrich Anna Marie Earnest William Bertha Gesina Emilie
Earnest William was my grandfather;.
Don't have anything on Christine Sophia at this time, but would love to have more information your line to have in case I turn something up on an extension.
Was in Germany in 1993 and obtained most of this information from Church Records in Diepholz, Germany.
Look forward to hearing from you again.

I will have to get my books out and give you my line. I do not have enough room to store on the computer. My grandfather and gr. grandfather came from Germany in 1882 and I have a generation or two back from there so will have to get back to you with the info. Leola

will get with what i have and get back with you ..thanks for your reply
|
I am also looking for info on the Torbeck family. I don't have much to start with. My husband's grandfather's name was William Torbeck, born in Germany. He married Emma Sager. My fil is their son, Howard (Toby) Torbeck Any info would be appreciated

Lorie: See my posting of August 31 (I believe that is the day) listing my line. Thus far I have not found another William, nor have I come across the Sophia that "kismet" was looking for either.
I can't help but think all of us are probably related from someone years ago, as the name is so unusual. At one time in Germany at the church at Diepholtz the name was spelled Thorbeck and later Torbeck, depending on who wrote the name I guess. Anyway my grandfather and gr. grandfather came over as Torbeck.
Do you have anything further back than your William? I look forward to hearing from you again. Leola
|
Have not come across any Sophia in my information that ties with yours, but am looking forward to hearing further from you. Perhaps something else will help or perhaps I have your Sophia under another name (first, middle, etc.). Have a cousin in Germany that may come up with more info as well on her visit over there.

I have warned my mil that I will be visiting her within the next couple weeks to get that info. She has a really good memory for this stuff, so I should have more info to share then. =) Lorie
