I am a member of Louis Frank Schoff, Sr. family. My Great- Grandparents were Louis and Mary Schoff. My Grandmother was Louisa Schoff Meismer. My father has said that the Bours are on his Grandmother's side. If this is part of your family ancestry then maybe we can get a few things straighten out. There are a few incorrect entries in the Louisa Schoff Meismer family. I am new at looking into my ancestry so my immediate family is all I can help you with.

I have all the information on your family back to 1758 with Jean Schaff, including yourself. Contact me via my email address if you want the information. I need some dates and places filled in with the names, though. I have it via Family Tree Maker, or I could create an Adobe file for your reference.

Thank you for the information - my Dad will love to set and read through the information and most likely recall many memories. I don't know where you live but Mom and Dad are still in the Peoria area. I will put the Louisa Schoff Meismer family together because there some errors and I can add to the families. I can get the Merle Meismer together and it would be easier for me to just put it into the US mail. I know you are laughing but haw, what can I say. I need is a class in computer use. I have never had the need for anything like this before. Send me your address.

Dad is looking up some things and will being the info with them when they visit. Dad was raised by his Grandmother and the three maiden aunts and bachlor uncle. We were blessed with the four of them. They were like grandparents to us.

Thank you again Sharon
