Richard Eduoard BLUMENSCHEID/T or BLUMENSCHIEN

Theresa Adair — 25 Dec 2001 11:46:22 GMT

I am seeking info on my Greatgrandfather Richard Eduoard BLUMENSCHEID. He was born June 1879 in Germany - no place given in Germany. When he emigrated to the US in December 1892 his hometown was given as Tilsit. I have found this as Sovetsk, Russia now. Richard shows up in Newark, NJ in the City Directory in 1895 and marries Louise P. Fellmuth on 08 September 1895. Copy of marriage record states parents as: Karl BLUMENSCHEID and Louise A or W EHILENSTEIN(sp?). Record is handwritten and even with help from Salt Lake FHL, mother's surname is questionabIe. I can not find Richard listed in New York or anywhere in New Jersey between 1892 and 1894. Richard and Louise had as a witness to their marriage Ida BLUMENSCHEID. I can find no reference to this person any other place. Richard was a shoemaker living on Monroe Street on the 1900 US Census. Richard and Louise had 2 children Arthur and Florence. By 1910 US Census surname spelling had changed to BLUMENSCHIEN and by 1920 US Census spelling was BLUMENSCHINE. 1940 Death certificate for Richard gives birthplace of himself and his parents as Russia and surname spelling as BLUMENSCHINE.
Would any one on this list have these persons listed in their families? I have been at an empasse for more than a year.

Helen Greene Blumenschein

Miriam A. Kilmer — 11 Feb 2001 12:19:34 GMT

Helen Greene Blumenschein was a dear friend of my mother. We used to call her "Cousin Helen" but I have been unable to determine whether there was any actual blood relationship.

Her parents were Ernest L Blumenschein and Mary Greene Blumenschein. I recently found a copy of her "Sounds and Sights of Taos Valley" inscribed "to a long, long friendship of the family for four generations." (The book belonged to my parents.)
My mother was Frances Frieseke Kilmer. Her parents were Frederick Carl Frieseke and Sarah O'Bryan Frieseke. My father was Kenton Kilmer. His parents were (Alfred) Joyce Kilmer and Aline Murray Kilmer. I know that Helen and her mother spent time with
F. C. Frieseke and family in the 1930's in France, and that Mary Green and F C Frieseke were both studying painting in Paris in the early 1900's. However, if there was a blood relationship of any kind, it could just have easily been through my father's family. At least he had some Greene connections.

any information that might help me find a common ancestor would be appreciated.

MARIA BLUMENSCHEIN/MARY BLOOMASHINE

wd8dcx — 24 Jun 2001 2:59:47 GMT

IGI lists marriage of Mary Blumenschein to Wilhelm Miller in Taneytown Maryland in 1802... Think this may be same marriage as listed in history of Frederick Maryland as Mary Bloomashine who married William Miller?
William and Mary's son John W. Miller married Joanna Eichelberger... John and Joanna's daughter Georgianna Celistia Miller married John Alfred Koons in 1856. Looking for parents of Maria/Mary and William/Wilhelm.
