Our Peter Entinger was born 1826 Germany & came with his wife & children to America approx 1880. He went west to WI & IA, where he died in 1900. Many of his descendants live in MN. My son-in-law is one of them. We have no idea who his parents were, etc. Family history has it that in Germany he served in the 9th Richmond Hussars & in 1867 was awarded 2 medals by the King of Baden. In 1870 & 71 he was emmisary of the regiment.
If this appears to be the Peter Entinger that would be brother to Jacob, please let me know.
Thanks.
