Looking for Ulrich Aebischer & Anna Bell Spring

louis11663 — 2011-08-24 04:21:21Z

I am trying to work back from my 2nd great Grandfather, Ulrich Aebischer, b 24 Jun 1835 in Bern, Switzerland d 1917 in Granite, Greer County buried in Granite City Cemetery. He married Anna Bell Spring in 1878 in Switzerland. Anna was born in June 1857 in Switzerland d 1905 in Missouri.
They had 6 children known to me: Christian Aebischer b 29 Nov 1865 in Guchisberg, Switzerland d 03 Nov 1940 in Newberg, Oregon; Lena Aebischer b 1880 in Switzerland d 1928 in Granite, Greer County, Oklahoma m Harry Jenkins; Tom Arnold Aebischer b 14 May 1884 in Madison, Illinois d 28 Jul 1964 in Mangum, Greer County, Oklahoma m Nora Bell Woolridge b 1886 d 1942 in Granite, Greer County, Oklahoma; Earnest Aebischer b 1888 d 1890; Richard Aebischer; unknown female aebischer.
Others are looking for a Rosina or such as a wife of Ulrich. I offer up from my grandfather, William O Aebischer that was born in 1914 in Missouri was moved by his father Tom Arnold to Greer County in 1915. Tom returned to Missouri in 1916 to get his father Ulrich as he was fading fast with no family left there. They returned shortly before the birth of my great aunt Alma Aebischer b 11 Jun 1916. The trip was hard on Ulrich and he never recovered much. Tom Arnold purchased the plots in Granite for Ulrich, later Nora was buried there as well as Lena. Tom himself remarried and is buried in the next town next to his 2nd wife. These same family members have related to my mother by Tom Arnold "her grandfather" were of his mother Anna Bell. We have several downline girls named Anna Bell after her.

The only known upline from Ulrich that I have is that his mother's maiden name was Miller. This is just a suggestion by my grandfather being told by his father of what his grandmother's name was.
If you have any information, PLEASE contact me. I will gladly share downlines with you and cover reasonable costs of your expenses in sharing with me.

Ulrich is my 2 Great Grandfather. He is buried in the Granite City Cemetery, Granite, Greer County, Oklahoma in our family plot. He was married to Anna Bell Spring in 1878. I have never heard of a Rosina being married to him.
Ulrich and Anna had 6 children. Christian, Lena, Tom Arnold, Earnest, Richard, and a unknown female.
Lena is also buried next to Ulrich in Granite, she had married Henry Jenkins.
My Great Grandfather was Tom Arnold Aebischer, he is buried in Riverside Cemetery, Mangum, Greer County, Oklahoma.
Would love to share information with others on the Aebischer line. I do have much research on the Spring line.

You may have found all the info you have been seeking. I have just a tad about Ulrich and family:

Ulrich Aebischer b. June 24, 1835 in Switzerland. Spouse:
?Rosa? _______ b. 1840 in Switzerland

They had a son named Christian 'Chris' Aebischer b. Nov 29, 1865 in Guchisberg, Switzerland; d. Nov 3, 1940 in Newberg, Oregon.

Ulrich brought the family to Chicago in the U.S. ~1881. Christian (and, therefore presumably the rest of the family) were involved in the Evangelical Church in Chicago. Christian moved out to Oregon. He met his future wife, Emma Birkemeier, at the Evangelical Church in Milwaukie, Oregon; having known some of her cousins in the church in Chicago.
Christian & Emma married in June 1896, settling on some land on Chehalem Mountain near Sherwood, Oregon. Their house, which might remind one of a Swiss house in the Alps, still stands, although no longer in the family.

Christian and Emma had eight children: Fred, Esther, Emily, Harold, Rosa, Edward, Elizabeth, and Raymond. Great-Aunt Rosa and Great-Uncle Ray are both still alive.

This is my wife's family. Her grandfather was Edward Aebischer.

I hope this helps some.
