I'm going to jump in here because my ancester is Elizabeth, sister to Margaretha, Anna, Agnes, Katherina, Rose, Nicholas P., and John Heisdorf. We come from the Franz Heisdorf line and I'm looking to learn more about the family too. My Elizabeth married Heinrich Kartheiser, which is my direct line. After he died she married Nic Salm and from there I've lost the connection of her life. Can anyone help me? I'm happy to share what I have. Jeanne

I just realized your posted query is old, but I am one in a long line of Albert Nicolais. Albert Alonso Nicolai (b. 1997) was my paternal grandfather, so the 1860s Albert who emigrated from Germany started our line in America. My father, son of Albert A., was Albert James, b. 2/23/1923. I am Albert Thomas, b. 10/12/1950, and my son is Albert Timothy, b. 6/11/1982. For what it's worth. Glad to add more if you're still interested.

William NICOLAI Biography, b. 1823 GER to NY to NJ to NY to IL to WI

RMunns7272 — 2007-06-18 04:26:11Z

From "History of La Crosse County, Wisconsin", 1881, p. 862.

Town of Greenfield

WILLIAM NICOLAI, farmer, Section 20; P. O. Sigel; was born in Germany, in 1823; emigrated to the United States in 1849, and stopped in New York about two years, when he went to New Jersey one year, after which he returned to New York, and stayed one year. He then went to Illinois, and stayed about two years, after which, in August, 1852, he came to La Crosse, and is therefore one of the oldest settlers in the county. In the spring of 1853, he moved on his present farm, 40 acres of which he had previously purchased; but he now owns 280 acres. In 1853, he was married to Louisa Horstchaffer, born in Germany in 1833; they have had eight children, four of whom are living - Otto, born May 3, 1856; Louis, born Feb. 3, 1858; George W., born June 15, 1861; Adolf, born Dec. 6, 1867. Mr. N. has held town offices several terms, and is at present Justice of the Peace. He is a member of the Evangelical Church, and a Democrat.

Children of Johann Friedrich Christian Nicolai

rnicolai128 — 2006-08-31 13:37:54Z

Johann Friedrich Christian Nicolai was b. 1835 in Prussia. He married Anna Margarete Wittgrefe b. 1838 and had 4 childen
Friedrich Carl Gustav b. 1860
Albert Louis (also known as ALbert Henry) b. 1863
August Hienrich b. 1864
Anne Marie (also known as Clara) b. ?
They immigrated to the US in 1867 and ended up in MO. Friedrich is died in 1870 and Anna Margarete remarried in 1872. I am looking for information on their 4 children. Albert Henry is our GGrandfather and his death certificate does confirm he is the son of Friedrich and Anna Margarete. I am now trying to figure out what happened to all of his brothers and sisters. The last I see of Friedrich Jr. and Anne Marie is the 1980 census where they live with their step father. their brother August Hienrich is not with them. Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks

Clara Nicolai, b. late 1800s, lived Wisconsin

@@emhosdil@1st.net — 2006-07-31 20:59:36Z

Clara Nicolai married Otto P. Schmidt (brother of my ancestor) in about the 1910s. Later in life Otto lived in Waupun, Dodge County, Wisconsin. (Waupun, however, is split between Dodge county and Fond du Lac county, so they may have been in either county.) They had one son named Darwin. Clara and Otto divorced sometime in the early 1920s, and Clara remarried a man with the surname Michaels. Darwin was known as Darwin Michaels. Otto later married a woman named Clara Voss and also divorced her.

Looking for information on any person mentioned above, especially decendents of Darwin.

Steve NICOLAI m. Marlene JUNET

Sue_Tilleman — 2005-12-03 10:17:29Z

See the following Nov. 7, 2005, message which I posted to the RootsWeb Bexar County, Texas, mailing list on behalf of Doris MATRIAN of Bremerhaven, Germany, who has been attempting to contact her husband's cousin Marlene JUNET NICOLAI for the past seven years. Mrs. NICOLAI is believed to have previously been living in Houston, Texas; San Antonio, Texas; and possibly Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/TXBEXAR/2005-11/1131402...

Marlene NICOLAI married a U.S. serviceman named Steve NICOLAI and moved to Texas. She lived in France following World War II. Mrs. NICOLAI possibly worked in a hospital operating room when she lived in Houston. It is estimated that she would now be about 63 years old. She was still going by the name NICOLAI in 1990.

Through the help of some other researchers, we have found the following address and phone number for Mrs. NICOLAI in public records, but mail is being returned to Mrs. MATRIAN as "Attempted, Not Known." An attempt to contact Mrs. NICOLAI at the phone number listed was not helpful.

Marlene NICOLAI
3007 Blakely Ave.
Eau Claire, WI 54701
Telephone: (715) 838-9350

Can anyone help Mrs. MATRIAN locate her husband's cousin? Mrs. MATRIAN's e-mail address is as follows:

Re: Nicolai surname

My great grandfather Francesco Nicolai came to the US from Luca in the early 1900's. He settled in San Francisco and our family still lives here. I always thought he was from the actual town of Luca not outside, but who knows. I know he married a Quilici named Thusula and they moved to the US together. Maybe he's realted to your father?

Edwin Frank Nicolai

kstewa00 — 2001-12-03 01:15:39Z

I am really fishing here... We found out when my gfather passed away in 1987 that his name was not what he had been using for his entire life. He HAD been using Edward Franklin Clayton, but found out in 1973 (when his company did a background check) that his name was really Edwin Frank Nicolai. He was born in NYC in 1909. Anyone with any idea of what sites I can hit to get birth records or records for orphanages (his mother put my gfather and his brother in an orphanage in 1912 or so), PLEASE let me know! I am at kstewa@peoplepc.com. Many thanks in advance!!!

This is very interesting
