I am interested in information on the family and ancestry of
Alois Rueb who was born in 1833 in Neuenburg,
Baden, Germany and immigrated to
Ross County sometime before 1854 when his eldest son, John (my ancestor) was born. He married a local girl (Eliza
Toops) and later moved his family to the
Fithian area in
Vermilion County,
Illinois. Later still he moved with most of his family to
Kansas. From web searches, it seems likely that other Ruebs may have come with
Alois to
Ross County from Germany and still have descendants there. Thanks for any information.
