I am looking for any information on Anna Marie Deckert, daughter of Adam Deckert and Marie Hahn. She was born around 1874. I believe she either had a brother or uncle names Charles. I have a home made banjo handed down to my by my mother who is from that blood line and it is dated 1894. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi
That is now a coincidence . My parents are August and Maria Deckert but we live in Namibia . Both were also born here .
My grand dad Hermann Deckert came to Namibia in 1908 from the then Prussia .
I still have family in Germany but over the yers have lost track with them.
Would be nice to get in touch with them again .
You can write in German - I can speak German as well.

Re: Henry Deckert who married Adelaide Gillespie in @1863

Hi, Lucy. I hope you are still on this message board! I have been long seeking information about Annie [aka Anna aka Mary Anne] Deckert from Philadelphia. She was born in 1836 and died in 1911. She can't be the Annie in your note, then, but she may be related to your Deckerts. Annie married Georges [aka George] Schaaf [1833-1905], one my my ancestors. We have been told that our Annnie's parents ran a boarding house in Philadelphia.
Annie and George Schaaf had 5 kids: Mary A., Frank E., Anna G., Albert J. and George J.

If you have any information about Annie and her parents, etc., please let me know. Thanks very much, Judy

Re: Charles John Deckert, Sr.

anyhome1 — 2008-08-11 11:41:02Z

I don't think you're related to my branch of Deckerts - they emigrated between 1880 and 1892 and stayed in the New York City area. But there are other Deckert families who emigrated earlier from Grossheubach and other towns in Unterfranken in Bavaria and the bordering part of Baden-Württemberg (Tauberbischopsheim)so it may be worthwhile looking in that part of Germany.

Re: Charles John Deckert, Sr.

johnd1869 — 2008-07-31 02:03:33Z

My father was George Franklin Deckert Jr.
His father was G.F.D Sr. and lived in Alexandria, LA
I also have some Deckert family photos from Chicago dating sometime around the turn of the century (1900).

I really don't have much more information than that. Am I too related to the family you mention from Unterfranken?

We are related

sojoedeckert — 2008-07-17 04:21:22Z

My father inlaw laughed when he heard you contacted me.. Your father inlaw is Robert Deckert, your married to Susanne? Robert her father is my Father inlaws 1st cousin.. Herbert V was his father. There you go..

Re: Any Relation?

sojoedeckert — 2008-07-17 03:44:20Z

Hi Mike,
Richard was born Feb 8, 1920 he passed away in 1977 He was married twice, #1 was Theresa, #2 was Elda .. Now Richard or Wes as he was called, was adopted by Aunt Annie and Uncle Rhodie Rankin because it was to much for George Washington Deckert Sr. to handle he was pretty distraught when Hannah died and overwhelmed with a new baby and the other children. He ended up an alcoholic.

I hope I'm not mistaken, are you asking about Hannah Rankin, or the daughter Hannah?

Hannah Mclane Rankin married George Washington Deckert SR. Feb 24, 1899 by Rev. J.K. Ballie in Philadelphia. They lived at 29 So. 42nd Street, Camden NJ.. I will ask my father inlaw when the family moved to Camden, Since these are his grandparents.

If you are asking about info on Hannah the daughter I will get info for you.. I have b-day and death dates for all the children and names of spouses..

Can you tell me how you are related?

One thing I must ask you.. By any chance would you have info on George Sr's father? The story in our family goes like this; We believe George's father;s name was John..He came from Germany to avoid the the draft there. He married , his wife which we have no name for was scalded to death with water she was using to do laundry with. Now they had 4 children.. Of course our George, then Bill Deckert, John Deckert, and a 1/2 sister Emma Deckert. It is also believed he may have had one of the children when he came from Germany, which one I have no idea..

So again how are you related?

I hope I was of some assistance. Write back

Sonia

mikesteevens_1 — 2008-07-14 14:02:46Z

Hello again,

So nice to hear from you. I had given you up for lost.

This certainly sounds like the family I am researching.

I was wondering what had become of Hannah. At this point didn't the children go to live with their grandfather?

Would you happen to know at what point the family moved to the Camden area?

Can you please verify the year of Richard's birth?

May I ask how you are related to this family?

I look forward to exchanging information with you.

Kindest regards,
Mike

Perry O. Deckert and Alice Mae Ewing

NancyHammons — 2006-11-05 14:34:03Z

I purchased the photos mentioned in another posting and did some research, this is what I found. Mary Morgan married James Madison Munyon in Aug 1964, Vernon, Michigan. They had six children: Imogene who married Samuel Ewing, Ethel who married Charles Moran, Arthur, Emma, Howard and Lewis. James Madison Munyon was the son of Jesse Munyon and Sarah Ferguson, Jesse was the son of Thomas Jefferson Munyon. Thomas was the son of Richard LeMunyon, who was a son of Thomas LeMunyon and Hester Howard.

Imogene "Jennie" and Samuel Willard Ewing had a daughter Alice Mae who married Perry O. Deckert. Ethel and Charles Moran had a daughter Ruth.

If these people are yours let me know, I would like to get them to more direct family, otherwise, they have a good home. My LeMunyon side comes from Thomas and Hester's son Samuel.

Re: Deckert family of SD

2006-07-16 17:16:36Z

Hello!
I don't know if I can prove ancestry to you, but there are rumors in my family that my grandmother's parents or an uncle moved to SD in the early 1900s because they were either in the country illegally or were fleeing some other crime? Anyway, my grandmother was Frieda Deckert, she married Raymund Born in Maryland, they later moved to PA. I don't have a lot of information on my grandmother's family. Could you tell me if any of this fits?

Would very much like to contact you; I hope you are still out there somewhere. Was pleasantly surprised to see your posting on the Deckert family.

I see that you have all of Herbert's children listed in your query. May I ask how you are related/why you are interested in this family?

Re: Deckert, Wilhelm x Rossman, Louisa

ereschke146 — 2004-11-12 00:57:13Z

Thanks for the reply but I don't think it's the same family. My Wilhelm Deckert married Louise Gust (or Wust) in Poland. Their children were Pauline, Gustav, Emile, Otille, Julianne and Augusta; all born between 1875 and 1882 in Poland. Gustav was the father of my mother-in-law Blandina Wilhelmina Deckert who married Rudolf Reschke. They immigrated from Germany to Chicago in 1922-23.

Howdy, cousin! Wilhelm Friedrich Deckert (Changed to William upon arrival in US) m Louisa Rossman in Germany before emmigrating, probably in 1899. They lived in Kane county, and are buried in the Blackburn Cemetery, Elburn, Kane, IL. Other than a pretty complete descendancy of Martha Anna Deckert Williams, my gm, we only have partial details on the family, compiled from an old family bible, census records, etc. There are apparently numerous Deckerts still living in Kane County, IL, but we haven't delved too deeply. Let's see if together we can fill in a few blanks. My e-mail jasonhad@hotmail.com

I am also researching this family. Can you tell me the names of any of the 12 children of Wilhelm Frederich and Louisa Rossman? The family I am researching is probably not the same. Her name was Louise(a) Schulz). They were from Poland.

Re: Deckert, Wilhelm

emr914 — 2004-05-05 00:47:27Z

Researching Wilhelm and Louise (Schulz) Deckert of Poland. Children are Pauline (1875, died 1875), Gustave (1876), Emilie (1879), Ottilie (1880, died 1881), Julianna (1881, Augusta (1882). Not known if they immigrated to America, but may be linked to a Blandina Wilhelmina (Grace) Deckert who married Rudolf Reschke (from Germany/Poland) in 1922 or 1923 in Chicago. Please email me directly to e.reschke@comcast.net.

Re: Deckert, Wilhelm x Rossman, Louisa

2004-04-01 07:34:49Z

If there's a familial tie, it's much farther back. "Our" Deckert ancestors emigrated from Eastern Prussia (now Poland) in the early 1900's to Dresden, thence to the Elgin Illinois area, and there's no known Gustav in the line-up.

Deckert, Wilhelm x Rossman, Louisa

2004-03-31 18:22:33Z

Louisa Augusta Miller Rossman married Wilhelm Friedrich Deckert in 1876. They had Children William Paul, Paul Otto, Martha Anna, Minnie Opal Irene, Harry D., Henry, Elizabeth Agnes, Ida Amelia, Stella Bertha, Walter Arthur, Edna Elverna and Raymond Ernest. I have lots on Martha Anna, but precious little on the rest.
