My grandfather, Joseph F. Keehn was born Feb 1869 in Illinois. His father from Germany, mother from Ireland. He married Emma L Weisense or Weisensese or a spelling similar, unable to decipher. Emma was born in Illinois, Jan 1868, Father and mother, Mina Weisense (sp?) born in Germany. Mina Weisense (?) immigrated from Germany in 1856.

Emma was 1 of 3 siblings. Possible a Caspar Weisense whom I located in Walla Walla Wa Census was a brother or uncle, he was born in Bavaria, as were his parents.

Joseph F Keehn was a barber in Ida Grove County Iowa, he died in May 1903. He was in the Keehn & Lancaster Barbershop in June 1897 per an article found.

Emma eventually married a Mr. Adams. They ended up in Manteca/Lathrop/Stockton, CA area in 1920's or earlier. No Keehn's in Ida Grove 1920 Census. They owned a dairy farm which my brother, born in 1921 recalls visiting.

My father was Dewey Carl Keehn, born May 29, 1898, Ida Grove, he had two brothers, JP born June 1891, Ida Grove; R. R., born Feb 1894, Ida Grove. He also had a sister, possibly Margaret/Mildred (?) married to a man, first name Carl (can't recall last name) (Recall he was in a nursing or care home in Sonora, CA at time of his death) She had a daughter, Imogene, who had a son named Carl Roy ?.

Emma Louise Adams (She went by Louise) was living in the town of Stockton, possibly 4th street (was there in 1950's) she died in 1950's I believe. Looking for any information regarding this family. Would especially like to find Imogene or her descendants. Expect she is in her 70's at this time.
