WILLIAM FABER OF NELSON COUNTY VA

thomasbay95 — 2009-11-07 13:55:45Z

I am trying to verify that William Faber of Nelson County, VA (Faber Mills) - 1787-1867 - is son of Johann Christopher and Anna Margaret Keeports Faber. Johann reportedly died in 1796 somewhere in PA, perhaps Chambersburg area, and William was born in PA. So far I've not run across any sources for the connection of William to Johann and Anna. Researching line from William > Hiram > John Henry > Hedgeman > Proctor > Betty J. Please respond directly to tbay@columbus.rr.com since I don't often monitor this site. Thanks. Tom Bay, Powell, OH

Faber families from Rehborn and Meisenheim

colin1972 — 2009-10-17 22:33:45Z

Hello Everyone,

I am looking to see if anyone has any connections to any Faber families who lived in either the villages of Rehborn or Meisenheim located in the Rheinland-Pfalz?

My own Faber connection is through a 4th Great Grandmother Maria Elisabetha (Faberin) Faber who married Friedrich Wannemacher on November 13, 1798 in Meisenheim.

Their marriage record indicates that Maria's father is a certain Heinrich Adam Faber who was a councilman in Rehborn. The father of Friedrich Wannemacher is recorded as being Daniel Wannemacher.

Does anyone reading this message see a potential Faber family connection to my own Faber family?

P.S.
Slovenia and Slovakia are two different countries. My Mindala family is from Slovakia. Just wanted to mention that.

Thank you Carl! It is Carl?

Looks like you are the only one getting back to me with some answers. Are my Mindalas parts of your family tree too? Eva Gabstur was my grandpa’s aunt. His sister Eva was born in 1890. Their parents were Stefan Mindala and Theresia Jancsik.

Here's a little from the free Family Search site:
http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#...

Name: Eva Gapstur, 80 years 6 days, female, married
Death: 21 Nov 1947, Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio
Birth: 15 Nov 1867, Austria Hungary
Spouse: John
Father: John Mindala
Mother: Eva Schuster

A daughter's death:

Eva Stang, 48 y, 8 m, 18 d
Death: 24 Sep 1946, Cleveland
Spouse: George Stang
Father: John Gapstur
Mother: Eva Mindala

I wonder is this is Eva in 1930; her age is off a little:

1930 United States Federal Census
Name: Eva Gapstur
Home in 1930: Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio
Age: 68
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1862
Birthplace: Czechoslovakia
Relation to Head of House: Grandmother, Grandma
Race: White
Age at first marriage: 18
Household Members:
John Brathowitz 26
Anna Brathowitz 22
Andrew Brathowitz 1 2/12
Eva Gapstur 68, widow (it says something above
grandmother--step?)

1920 United States Federal Census
Name: Eva Galaker [Gabster]
Home in 1920: Cleveland Ward 16, Cuyahoga, Ohio
Age: 62 years
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1858
Birthplace: Slovenia
Relation to Head of House: Head
Father's Birth Place: Slovenia
Mother's Birth Place: Slovenia
Marital Status: Widow
Race: White
Sex: Female
Home owned: Rent
Year of Immigration: 1915 [it says 1910]
Able to read: Yes
Able to Write: Yes
Household Members:
Eva Galaker 62
Eva Galaker 22, daughter

Living with this family (her son?):

1920 United States Federal Census
Name: Joe Gabaker [Gabster]
Home in 1920: Cleveland Ward 16, Cuyahoga, Ohio
Age: 38 years
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1882
Birthplace: Slovenia
Relation to Head of House: Head
Spouse's Name: Mary
Father's Birth Place: Slovenia
Mother's Birth Place: Slovenia
Marital Status: Married
Race: White
Sex: Male
Home owned: Rent
Year of Immigration: 1910
Able to read: Yes
Able to Write: Yes
Household Members:
Joe Gabaker 38
Mary Gabaker 35
Johnny Gabaker 4 1/12
Mary Gabaker 11/12

So she must have had children:
Eva, b. 1898
Joe, b. 1882--that's early for an 1867 birth for Eva; perhaps the 1862 birth is closer to being correct; or Joe isn't her son but some other relation. Or...maybe these are two different Evas Gap/bsters. :)

Re: Mindala

jarmilarusinak — 2009-10-03 16:26:50Z

I found the family of Anna Mindala! Her married name was Kraynak. One of her sisters was in Cleveland, OH married to Varga/Vargo, but we don’t know which one, Eva or Zuzana. They also had a brother Stephan/Steve somewhere in U.S. He died in a train accident. Anyway, I would like to find the families of Eva, Zuzana & Steve Mindala. Both sisters were married, one of them to Varga. Any info will be welcomed and appreciated.

Re: grandfather

jarmilarusinak — 2009-09-15 03:14:50Z

My grandpa Michal Mindala had 11 siblings. Eva was one of them. She was born on Oct. 19. 1890,in Jakubany, Slovakia.
She, her sisters Suzan, Theresa, Anna & brother Stefan/Steve immigrated to U.S. in early 1900's.
Is your Eva the same Eva I am looking for?

jarmilarusinak — 2009-08-20 15:17:12Z

Yes, thank you for all your help. My free trial ends today so anyone who has any info about family Mindala from Jakubany/Jakubfalva, Slovakia please contact me directly at my e-mail:

Re: Anna Mindala, b. abt 1900

I see several of the names you've mentioned at Family Search, but you probably have too.

http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#...

Re: Anna Mindala, b. abt 1900

jarmilarusinak — 2009-08-20 01:40:08Z

No, I have no information regarding that. All I know is that she immigrated to U.S.A. Also there is the fam. photograph of her and her husband at older age and two little boys (probably the grandsons).

My Grandpa & Anna's father had sister Eva Mindala living in Cleveland, Ohio. She was married to Jan Gabstur, who died in Jakubany in 1898. She died in Ohio in 1947. So maybe there is a chance that Anna also lived in Ohio.

Re: Anna Mindala, b. abt 1900

carlsonjm — 2009-08-19 23:16:03Z

Do you know where she lived her married life so that you can search the census for a fitting Anna? Do you know where she died and when?

Re: Anna Mindala, b. abt 1900

jarmilarusinak — 2009-08-19 15:06:37Z

Thank you! I already have this info from Ellis Island records. I just don't know how to continue with my search.
My Anna's parents were Stefan Mindala and Theresia Jancsik (my great grandparents). My great great grandparents: Jan Mindala and Eva Schuster.

Re: Anna Mindala, b. abt 1900

carlsonjm — 2009-08-19 12:12:51Z

I see two possibiities (if her name is transcribed correctly). Now that I've typed in the additional info, I see the second one was headed for b-i-l Faber, so maybe that's what you're looking for, as this is on the Faber board.

She was born in 1899. I even have an old photograph of her and her husband (do not know his name). On this photograph they are with two little boys.

Re: Anna Mindala

There were six Anna Mindalas immigrating between 1906 and 1935, four of them "Slovakian". What year was your Anna born?

Mahlon Faber would be your great grandfather. He is Clarence's father. Mahlon is also my husband's great grandfather. Mahlon's daughter Charlotte was a sister to Clarence and Charlotte was his grandma.(on his mothers side) If you would like more information please email me directly- Mary Kulp: marysgenes@yahoo.com
Also I would be interested in the Bible if you are not. Please let me know. Hope this answers your question.

Re: mahlon faber

JMWhalen — 2009-01-07 00:19:01Z

I'm going to try to post the JPEG image from the Zimmerman Family Bible which has the record of Mahlon Faber and Josephine Alice Zimmerman. This marriage occurred 1 March 1879, according to that page entry. This page also shows the birth dates of three of their children, Edward Harry, Elsie Elisabeth, and William Benjamin. I hope this is of some help to someone.

Re: mahlon faber

JMWhalen — 2009-01-06 02:47:20Z

Hello; regarding the bible, and keeping in mind that it is NOT Mahlon Faber's family bible, and has very little information regarding him in it, it was claimed back around the time I posted my message in 2002. I do have JPEG images of the family history pages, but most of them relate to a Zimmerman family.

Hopefuly this helps.
I´ve found the following information about the William Faber family in German church records and in Castle Garden website
1) Wilhelm Faber, born Nov 17 1828 in Feuerscheid/Eifel.
2) married with Anna Maria, maiden name Gitzen, born 16 Jul 1837 in Schoenecken/Eifel.
The family lived in Schoenecken/Eifel.
3) emigrated to the U.S. on Dec 19 1882 from Port Bremen, Germany to Port N.Y., Ship "General Werder" with their children: Faber, Josef, (11Y)
Faber, Wilhelm, (9Y)
Faber, Paul, (7Y)
Faber, name unknown, (female, 7Y.) and
Faber, Katharina, (20Y.), Nurse - relationship unkown.

Because earlier in this route six children were listed,
two of those must be born in Seneca County, OH.

Regards from Germany

I´ve specifically researched emigration records to the US from the Schoenecken/Eifel and the surrounding area, weblink (in German language) could be found at:
