Henry Brandt came over from Hanover about 1849. I haven't found the exact dates, but found him in Ohio in 1850. He joined the Illinois 6th Cavalry and served in 1861-2 and is next found in Chicago with a wife (Effie from Ohio) and son Frank. Effie died and I lost Frank, but he married (by family stories) his housekeeper Ida Wilhelmina Siegler (from Berlin) and moved to Geneva, IL. They had several children and lived between Geneva and Wisconsin. He died in Vermillion, IL at the Soldiers and Sailors home, never fully recovering from the injuries he received in the War (we would probably blame it on Post Traumatic Stress now!)

I have not had much luck and no, I do not have an Ancestry subscription. With 2 grandchildren (young ones), my research time is limited. Gotta enjoy them while they are young. John P Brandt is my Gggrandfather, Wert's father. I have had no luck tracking down where he is buried much less where he lived. I knew my Ggrandparents fairly well since they did not pass away til I was a teenager. So, most of what I have is first hand info. I will keep trying. Thanx for the reply.

Re: Brandt

Kayohio — 2009-10-28 13:37:46Z

Do you have Ancestry? Have you checked the census?? Could be that you're part of the original Brandt family that came in the mid 1700's and settled in Pa. If you can get back a couple more generations, maybe our families will prove to be the same.

Re: Brandt

mlrl74 — 2009-10-28 12:20:23Z

Where in Illinois did your Brandt family live? I have not been able to break my block. I have only been able to go back to my Gggrandparents. My great grandparents were Wert and Emma Brandt and they lived in Greenfield, Il. until their death in the 1970's.

Kathy,

It was great to hear from you. I was born in 1945 and my name is Bill. Irene passed away many years ago of cervical cancer. She was born in 1946/47. Bunny (Helen) still lives in Ohio and she was born in 1942/43. Yes, it was quite amazing my parents could keep the chrismas tree locked in a separate room and put candies on it almost every night leading up to Christmas. It was a great tradition.

My siblings names are, oldest to yougest, are as follows:

John, Rose, Joe, Theresa, Rita, George, Alma. Gus, Fred Helen, Ed, Bill, Irene, and Jim. My parents lost a child at an early age. He was born somewhere around Rose and Joe.

I live in Massachusetts, Rita lives near you in Placerville CA.and Fred lives in Ventura. Many of my living siblings live in California and a few of them still live in Ohio.

My email address is billbrandt1945@gmail.com. It might be easier to stay in touch directly. I will also give you some email addresses of my siblings. I look forward to hearing from you.

Bill

bikekat — 2009-10-27 00:38:41Z

Hello, Bill,

I am the eldest granddaughter of Francis and Irene Brandt. I could have sworn that my grandmother told me your parents had 18 children. Oh, well, it's nice to know the correct number.

Could you provide me with the correct order and names? I can't remember everyone who was at your parents' Christmas get togethers. I remember the room where the tree was located being off limits. And the candies on that tree - wonderful memories.

I think that Irene (Bunny?) was around my age. I was born in 1945.

I have been getting psychic prods to get busy on my research again now that I have finished a couple of years of school. I'd love to chat more and pick your brain for some other missing information.

I live in N. California (SF Bay area), and everytime I go near La Habra, I think about your parents.

Kathy

jrphistner — 2009-09-18 22:44:40Z

Hi Steve,

In the 1839-1840 Cincinnati Ohio directory there is a Brandt, H (Ger) Oil Cloth Maker, Res, W s Main North of Corp. This could be your Maria Anna Brandt's father. I found this information from a free geneological site called www.evendon.com which has a wealth of directories information on this site.

Thanks,

Re: Charlotte/Carolina Brandt born 1826 from Bavaria--from Steve

swd460_1 — 2009-09-05 12:11:16Z

I wrote to the archivist at the chancery of the diocese of cincinnati where the records are looked up--yesterday. They
say on their web site it might take 6-8 weeks to get the records. Three of their children were born in Cincinnati also--I asked for the marriage and Baptismal records. The hamilton Genealogical Society's web site has an index to early marriages and it says Holy Trinity for the Morper/Brandt marriage. Probably the Baptismal records are their as well. I'll let you know when I get the records. Steve

Re: Charlotte/Carolina Brandt born 1826 from Bavaria

jrphistner — 2009-09-05 01:28:42Z

Yes this is hopefully Charlotte/Carolina Brandt/Brand's sister. We have obtained my 3rd gr. grandparents Adam Pistner and Carolina Brandt/Brand marriage certificate and her parents were not listed. We have seen Carolina/Charlotte listed with her surname as both Brandt/Brand but we think the surname was originally Brandt. Please keep me posted with the findings of the marriage certificate of Michael Morper and Maria Anna Brandt with possible parents names. Do you know if they were married at Old St. Mary's Catholic church in Cincinnati in 1840?

Thanks,

John

Tina Turbo — 2009-07-31 14:39:15Z

I have come across a couple of pix of Frederich Brandt. One is a pix with his sister and the other is a copy of pix with his wife.

I haven't done any reserach for a few years on my lines, and I'm not sure these pix would do anyone any good, but I am willing to scan them and send them to anyone who thinks these are "your" relatives. :)

I have some old letters that mention them, and I will reread those and see if they can help in any way for research. These letters from the 1930s and later.

The Brandts in my line came from Germany in 1874 and I am from the Louisa Wilhelmina branch. She maried W.H. Cruikshank.

Contact me at stlfan45@hotmail.com if interested. I will be out of town next week, but will try to respond before I leave.

Re: BRANDTS of NE Mo. - Hoskins - Kiefer - Boots - Rooney and PA

kookie44 — 2009-06-30 22:22:52Z

The Jacob Brandt is the father; Mother was Johanna or Hanna Oting or Oeding. I know of the following 3 children that immigrated to America. They are: Margaretha b.1856 - d. 1936; Claus b.1856 - d.1935; George Christian b. 1858 - d. 1921. Margaretha m. Ernest Peter Lembke in 1883, George m. Frederika Pasch and Claus m. Margaretha I believe before he immigrated to America. He settled near Blair NE. and remained there. Margaretha had a little bbok that had Flensburg, Prussa written in it. My Mother said that it was used like a passport for her to leave the country when she immigrated. Do you have any of these in your research.
