BIEHN & HUEBSCH
http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.biehn/9.2.2/mb.ashxIn my vast tree (on paper) I have Michael BIEHN born 15 February 1826 in Riedseltz, Bas Rhin, Alsace
Parents: Margaretha HAURY & Michael BIEHN
Married 04 July 1854 in St. Michaels R/C in Buffalo, Erie County, NY.
His wife is Magdalena HIMMELSPACH born in Riedseltz on 28 January 1826. Parents: Joseph HIMMELSPACH & Maria Anna KUEBLER.
Magdalena had a child before they married named Barbara HIMMELSPACH born 05 February 1848 in Riedseltz.
Magdalena and Jacob had a son Joseph BIEHN born 13 May 1866
in Riedseltz.
What year did this family leave? What was the ship named?
I'd like to know when the the eldest Michael died and where he was interred. I don't have a deathdate for him.
