Maps of Luxembourg province?

scottyice — 27 Jul 2008 8:59:24 GMT

Hello, I'm trying to locate a village name Ritteburg (or something close to it) from the mid to late 1700's. At first we thought this was either in the present day country of Luxembourg or the part of today's Germany that used to be part of Luxembourg, but now I'm wondering if it may have been in the province of Luxembourg in Belgium. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Heinstert, Belgium research query

mstefflen — 6 Mar 2007 5:20:13 GMT

Hello,

I recently discovered that my grandfather is originally from the town of Heinstert near Arlon in the Luxembourg province of Belgium. (born circa 1892 & arrived in the USA on July 18, 1908 aboard the ship Kroonland)

Unfortunately the LDS only carries parish records for Heinstert covering the years of 1650 - 1797 and 1808 - 1810.

What is the best way to find records for Heinstert after 1810? Did the Parish church in Heinstert close after 1810? Should I be looking in Attert instead or somewhere else nearby?

Thank you,

Michael

Arend

LindaLinda1710 — 3 Jul 2007 4:29:25 GMT

I am researching the Arend family in Ohio and seem to have hit a dead end.
I have a Dominic Arend b. 19 Dec 1819, d. 9 Dec 1903 married to a Mary
Wagoner b. 15 Aug 1829, d. 17 Jan 1917. They married about 1850 in Ohio. Both claim to be from Belgium/Lux.
On all census records and any document I can find either Belgium is written
or Luxembourg. I cannot find any immigration records. He immigrated at age 19, so that would have been in 1838 or so. His parents were Lawrence and Mary Arend (who did not immigrate). He had a younger brother, Nicholas, who also came to Ohio. I haven't found any records that would lead me back to a particular town in Belgium/Lux. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you so very much.

search for family of Eustatius Wijnand x Johanna (Jacoba) Nicola : I'm stuck, who can help?

jettie61 — 22 Mar 2007 11:23:12 GMT

Hello ,

I'm stuck with my search for the family Wijnand(s), also written as Wynants, Weijnands etc.
I oldest I have are:
Eustatius (Statius) Wijnand, born ca.1720/1730, RK
married Johanna/Jacoba Nicola
They lived in Zeeland, Netherlands and got for sure a son called Jacobus Wijnand,
I suspect they also had a son Leonardus and Christiaan and a daughter Maria Margreta.

It's quite possible they came from Belgium or Luxemburg to Netherlands
Is there anyone who knows these names, for example I can't find the name Eustatius anywere on internet.
Does anyone know something about this family?>
Any help would be very much appreciated.

with friendly greetings,
Henriette from Netherlands

Stephany & Clement families in Arlon? > Wyoming Co., NY

mstefflen — 19 Jun 2006 4:28:20 GMT

I am looking for any information on STEPHANY and CLEMENT families connected to these two individuals:

George M. STEPHANY (my grandfather), born circa 1892 in Luxembourg, Belgium - probably Arlon or surrounding areas, immigrated to Wyoming County, NY circa 1908.

and George CLEMENT, born circa 1860 in Belgium, immigrated to Wyoming County, NY in 1882. Married Ellen (last name unknown) in NY.

George STEPHANY'S US social security application states that his parents were:

Michel (Michael) STEPHANY of Arlon, Belgium and Josephine CLEMENT of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

Paternal grandparents are possibly Michel STEPHANY and Catherine MULLER/MILLER?

Maternal grandparents are possibly Pierre (Perry) CLEMENT and Anne RICHARD?

George M. STEPHANY and George CLEMENT are probably close relatives - cousins or uncle/nephew.

George M. STEPHANY is listed in the 1910 US Census for Wyoming Co., NY as "George STEFFANY" living as a boarder with a George CLEMENT and family in Wethersfield, NY just east of Java, NY and close to Sheldon, NY where other CLEMENT families from Luxembourg, Belgium lived.

Thank you,

We want to find any information about this family. This is the missing link for us. We can't trace more until we get facts from Belgium.

Does anyone know where we can go to get more information? Maybe we could search at churches there in Toernich? Is this a large place?

I am happy to report that a very nice person in Minnesota, has added the Zoellers to the familysearch database, of Luxembourg.

Besides that, all of the dates for Franciscus and his first wife's children were found by her also! Now I just have to write her, and thank her, and go from here! If anyone can help me further on this, please write ... PS We have the family tree almost complete for Franciscus' first family of children. He remarried at Saint Boniface, New Riegel, OH after his wife, Anna Maria Wathier, died; his son Joseph from that union was my Great-grandfather, and the families remain in the Seneca County, Ohio area. I have listed some of the new surnames ...

Anna (Welter) and Peter Tholl from Luxembourg

noreenmcgratten — 3 May 2002 1:22:19 GMT

My father, Joseph Tholl (DOB: April 12, 1899) was the youngest child of Anna (DOB: June 15, 1857 ) and Peter (DOB: February 08, 1850) He arrived in America in March of 1901, not yet 2 years old, on the ship, Kensington, with his parents and 9 older siblings (and a brother-in-law John Baptist Welscher (DOB: January 25, 1871) from Luxembourg. Two other siblings, who died soon after their birth were left behind buried in Luxembourg.

Anna was the daughter of Nicholas Welter (DOD: Abt. May 12, 1859 ) and Johanna Weirig (DOB: February 06, 1824) and to the best of my knowledge Anna had 3 sisters. One sister was named Elise and she married Etienne Wagener (DOB: March 18, 1853) who was a history teacher. (Source: Peter and Anna's marriage registration and Index to marriage registrations: Elise and Etienne)

Peter was the son of George (DOB: January 02, 1812)and Elisabeth (Schmit) Tholl (DOB:March 30, 1822) and my mother, Marguerite Tholl (DOB: December, 27, 1909; still alive with a very accurate memory) recalls Anna speaking of a sickly brother of Peter's (Anna's husband) who died young. George was believed to be the illegitimate son of an Annemarie Tholl who died in October, 1844. (How common were illegitimate children who took their mother's name in this era? Any insight to this is appreciated.)

Much of this information is unsubstantiated and is from reports from various family members. I have some information on most of the siblings of my father, Joseph, who were children of Anna and Peter. I will gladly share any information with others and would appreciate any information that rounds out, corrects or confirms my information.

KOCH, Michael b: Jan 29, 1817 in Fouches, Lux Province; Belgium

Don George — 3 Mar 2005 2:50:29 GMT

Looking to make contact with the descendants of Michael Koch b: Jan 29, 1817 in Fouches. He married Marie George b:Jan 14, 1822 in Fouches. They were married in Offen-Toernich on August 5, 1852. Their children were (no birth dates available to me except for 1): August, Jean, Pierre, Ferdinand, Michael, Nicholas (b: 1855 d. 1926 in North Java, NY if my data is accurate ).

No indication that any of the other children moved to the USA, so my guess is it will be descendants of this couple in Belgium that may see this & help.

Scholtes-Margaretha, Lillian, Nicholas, Jacob, Mary

Barbara — 17 May 2005 2:00:49 GMT

Hi,

My great grandmothers birth name was Margaretha Scholtes. I am looking for information on her parents as well as any siblings and herself as well. She was born in November 30, 1888 in Luxembourg. Her parents names as far as I know are Mary Fischbach (fishbach?) and Jacob Scholtes. I believe they died in the war, WWI, but am not sure or WWII...no one knows. I think she had a brother named Nicholas and a sister named Lillian. But this I am not sure of either.

Also I have an idea that Jacobs parents names were Henry Scholtes and Angela Biner, and Mary's parents were Matthew Fischbach and Charlotte Zeenen.

Your help is appreciated. I don't speak or read German so this has been a difficult search to say the least.
You can reach me at the following e-mail quickest...

Tintange or Bigonville, Luxembourg Province

mbgenealogy — 5 Nov 2001 9:05:40 GMT

Nicholas Jacquemain was born in "Bigonville, Kanton von Fauvillers, in der Provinz Luxemburg" in April 1838. When I did a search for the village of Bigonville, I found one very near Arsdorf in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (where Nicholas' siblings were born). However I believe the Bigonville that I am looking for has been renamed to Tintange in the Luxembourg Province. Does anyone know if this is correct? Also in 1838 the Luxembourg Province would have still been part of the Grand Duchy, correct? Thanks for any help!

Need help with a marriage document from Hachy, Luxembourg, Belgium

Carrie Schafer — 14 Apr 2003 5:43:12 GMT

Hi! I tried to make a copy of a marriage record from a catholic church in Hachy from the LDS film from the time period 1872 for a Michael Deville (or Devillet) and Maria Elisabetha Fonck (dau. of Henricus Fonck and Susanna Thomas. I'm trying to figure out the date of the marriage (know it is 1872 because the record was located 3 records before the start of 1873) and who Michael's parents are. Unfortunately the copies I printed off kept running the words together so I can tell what it is, though it looks like his mother may have been Maria Jafo/Gafe something that is only 4 letters long and starts with either a j or a g. My best bet on the father's name was Petri because it looks like it's only 5 letters long and has a "tr" in it. I found baptismal records for children from a Francisci Devillet and his wife, Anna Maria Groeft or Graf (as another person on the list lists her possible sister Magdalena as a Graf - she married Henry Schung) and couldn't really find any other mentions of Devilles in Hachy until Michael and Maria Elisabeth's children around the 1800's, the baptismal records say that Francisci and Anna were from Saas but it looks now like it was probably suppose to say Suess instead. If anyone can provide any help or even a copy of the record that actually is readable I would be very grateful. Thanks for any help.
