I'm looking for any information regarding Marie KYBURZ, born 20 July 1878 in Mackinaw Downs, IL to Samuel KYBURZ (b. ~1836) and Anna SCHAFFNER. Marie married Karl Frederick GSCHWIND (b. 17 Feb 1874, Rhettesburg, Germany) and had several children, but Marie is the only one for whom I have a name. She died in October of 1979 in Metamora, IL. Please contact me if any of this sounds familiar!

I am researching Caroline Kyburz. She would have been born about 1900 IL. She married John Wettstein 1-10-1925. Since he was from the Eureka, Woodford Co., IL area, they may have married here. Trying to locate Caroline's family.

Do you have the names of Caroline Kyburz's siblings? You were so helpful in sharing Caroline's parents names. Have any idea when they arrived in the US?

I am researching (trying to anyways) the Kyburz/Schaffner/Gschwind Family. They would be my great-great grandparents... My Grandparents are Lydia "Hanna" and Christ Young, Jr. I have some information on Karl and Mary (Kyburz) Gschwind but I can't go much farther back than that. Thanks for your help!
