No, regarding the Catholic Church records.

Chances are that if you are searching for records that old, they may be written in FRENCH or Latin.

Thank you for the response. I do have this information but the thing I do not have is the date/place of death of Charlotte, my ancestor. Her marriage to Metode is the last document that I have been able to find that describes her life. I just recently found the citation about his residence thus my request for information.

On 17 Oct 1780 he married Charlotte Larche/Large/L'Archeveque. I would like to know if they lived in St. Charles. Can anyone help?

I think I found him in Col Alexander McNair's Missouri Militia. McNair is the 1st Gov of Missouri as a state. Missouri 1st state capital was St Charles City in St Chas Co. It looks like they did have men from Mo and Ill in 1812 sisnce it was just a territory. I did find Collet in the War of 1812 index here on Ancestry in McNair's Reg Once as Caller Haynes and also Cattle Haynes. Hope this helps! Mary

Hi John,

George W. Mades was my paternal grandmother (Lydia Isabel (Mades) Dwiggins) paternal grandfather. The information I have is he was from Babenhausen Kris Alsfeld Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany. He married Katherina Schneider on Feb 12, 1837 in Hamburg, MO. Additionally, his intent of naturalization states he was a shoemaker in Germany. If you have any information on their children, it would be appreciated. I only have Henry Mades who married Margaret Peters.
Thanks!

Otto and Louis Alders

austin1959 — 2012-09-11 21:22:47Z

I am looking for informationn on Otto and Louis Alders who were both born in St Joseph Missouri in 1882 and 1884. Their parents at the time were George and Helen Mueller. Helen divorced George in 1894 and married J T Alders. The boys assumed the name of Alders. In 1904 she and Joseph T Alders divorced and she was left with the boys in Kansas City. The whereabouts of the boys gets lost after this date. It is probably complicated by the name that the boys assumed at the time of Helen's last divorce: was it Hauser( her maiden in Switzerland) or Mueller( the real name of he boys) or Alders, her second husband. Helen looks to have been born in the 1860e in Switzerland. Any information is appreciated. Thanks Austin Mueller
