sloan126 — 2009-10-28 19:15:35Z

Hello: Could you take a minute to tell me how to research back that far in Germany? My Grandfather was Josef (Joseph) Obert (b.1904) from Rust Germany who came to the US in 1927 and lived in NY and then in New Jersey (d.1981). I'd like to find out who his parents, grandparents, siblings, etc. were.

Re: Obert Family Lineage

sloan126 — 2009-10-28 02:26:55Z

Hello: My grandfathers name was Josef Obert (became Joseph once he was in the US). He was born in Rust Germany January 11 1904 and came to New York around December of 1927 where he worked as a butcher. I know he had siblings in Langhurst Germany. If you have any other information on his relatives I would be thrilled to get it. I wish I could help you out but I just started doing my family tree and have only gotten as far back as about 1900. Best, -Sloan Johnson

Thanks for your information, but my Oberts were already in New Jersey in the 1770's, whereas yours were still in Germany then. I do appreciate your help, though!

Thanks very much,

I have some George's in my lineage. The elder is from Baden, b 1834, d 1870 in PA. The younger was born in 1863. Much of the family is in the Phildelphia area. Let me know if any of my Georges look like they could be your Georges.

Hello Bill, This is my husband's family. My husband passed away 4 years ago. I did look in his tree and I didn't find the names you were looking for I'm sorry.

Re: Family Info

wfranz143 — 2009-03-15 22:14:24Z

This line of discussion is several years old, but I was hoping someone might still be monitoring it. I am descended from George Obert, born circa 1834 in Baden. George's sons included Louis Obert, born in 1867. Louis was a Philadelphia, PA, police officer. He is the father of William Obert who was my grandfather. William Obert is the end of this line as he had only a daughter.

Any information regarding how I fit into the information already gathered would be most appreciated.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. I had searched the census dates as well but that was all I had on these folks. I was taking a longshot that someone would know one of the people. Except for my direct line, the siblings are all lost to me. Before trying to find marriage certificates, death certificates, and the like, I was trying to get a little more background. Thanks again.

Re: Louis Obert, Philadelphia police officer

amshotwell — 2009-02-13 18:55:34Z

I did a census search for you, They are on 1870, 1880, 1900 1910 an 1930.1870 there is no Father stated So George must have died before 1870. It is similar info to 1880. Louis is also on the 1910 at a police officer as well. Louis father is always stated as being from Baden Germany and mother from Prussia Germany
Hope this Helps:)!

I am seeking information on any of the siblings of Louis Obert, born circa 1867. I believe his parents were George and Francis but I have not been able to confirm that information. Louis was my great grandfather. He was reported by family lore to have been a police officer in the city of Philadelphia. I have written them seeking personnel records without response.

Peter Obert b. 1775 NJ /Ogden/Selover

wselover — 2008-11-29 16:49:42Z

I am looking for any information on the Peter Obert born Sept. 10, 1775, d. April 26, 1852, all in New Brunswick area of Middlesex Co., N.J. He is listed in the Ogden Family genealogy as marrying Mercy Ogden Oct. 27, 1798. Children: Peter Jr., Frederick, Prudence, Henry, Elizabeth and Margaret. Prudence, b. Feb. 6, 1803, d. May 5, 1858 in MN, married Lewis Selover (Slover) in 1827.

I have found at least 3 different Peter Oberts in Middlesex Co., all born within 10 years of each other, along with a ton of Fredericks, Henrys and Georges. Very popular names!

Any info or leads would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Just Wondering

obert82 — 2008-03-30 23:05:40Z

I am from the other Obert family you are talking about in Alabama. I live in Birmingham. I come from the Oberts who lived in Texas, and before that in Apache, Oklahoma (pre-1900-about 1950). However, I have never heard of the names you have mentioned in your post.

Re: Henry Francis Obert

dedmod1 — 2008-03-28 17:42:42Z

I'm working on the descendents of my 5ggrandfather Boyce John Pruden II b 1773 NJ. He had a son Silas who had a daughter Mary B who married Milo Everts. They had a daughter Juliette who married Charles Winthrop Adams. They had a daughter Mary Elvira who married Frances Marion Obert b 21 Sep 1846 WI. One of their sons was a Henry Francis Obert b 15 Jun 1873 WI, which makes me suspect Frances was a member of the Obert line in this thread. I've got about 50 descendents of Frances & Mary, but only up to the 1910s or so. I'd be interested in finding someone to fill in the later generations if possible.

Should there be anyone from this line who wants more info on the Pruden connection, I'd be happy to fill them in.

Re: Obert Family Lineage

Henry is where I am stuck. I cannot locate any information on him. I am really helping a friend of mine. If all is correct, Henry Francis is his 4th great grandfather. I would be interested on what you have. If you can, please send it to body4life61292003@yahoo.com. Thanks.

Hi James, my name is Christine and I am the daughter of Marge (Muggsy) Brown. I'm happy you replied to the post.

I ran out of space. I think we have the same people up until you found them in Wyoming. I'm sure they all died in Cary and I've been to their graves in Hurley, Wisconsin. Mary's daughter is still living. Uncle John just died in 2004. I have information from their death certificates if you want it. Please e-mail me at christinejuma@sbcglobal.net. I've been looking for years for immigration information on James O'Bert. I hope this is the same one. Thank you.

Re: Looking for Obert's of Wyoming and Wisconsin

2006-11-15 04:14:31Z

Hi Kelly, I haven't checked roots web in a long time and just came across your Obert posting. My great grandfather is James O'bert from Cary Township, Iron Co. Wisconsin. His first wife was Caterina and their children were Michael, Mary, Peter,Domenic and John. Caterina died in child birth with John and James then married my great grandmother, Margherite Pedretti. Their children were Joseph, Paul, Anne (my grandmother) and Battista James. Now here is where we part facts. Margherite died in child birth with the last child. James died in 1928 in Cary.

Peter Obert was my husbands' 3rd great grandfather. Thru his first wife Barbara Glaser. She died abt 1834.

Re: Family of Henry Obert

2004-01-09 15:40:57Z

The common link is Hartman Van Dusen Obert and Harriet Matilda Green. These are our GGG Grandparents, and the parents of Charles and Dewitt Obert.

Your GG Grandpa (Charles) was the brother of my GG Grandpa (Dewitt).

The children of Charles (including your G Grandpa, John) would be 1st cousins with the children of Dewitt (including my G Grandpa, Roy).

The children of John (including your Grandpa Donald) would be 2nd cousins of the children of Roy (including my Grandfather, Duane).

The children of Donald (including your father) would be 3rd cousins with the children of Duane (including my father, Dennis).

That would make the children of your father and mine (such as me and you) 4th cousins.

Let me know if I made any mistakes above. Thanks -- David

Re: Family of Henry Obert

2004-01-09 04:00:09Z

Yes there is at least one book out there. The one I have was published by Ila Obert Bovee and is almost 500 pages complete with many photos. As of January 1995, her address was 7117 58th Ave NE, Seattle, Wa 98115. The phone listed is (206) 522-4156 but don't know if any of this is current. I'm hoping that someone entered a copy at the Family History Library of the Mormon Church so that it would be available to all interested parties. There are three David Oberts listed in the directory, David Donald, David Eugene, and David Ray Obert. We must be a close clan because all these names are used over and over. My middle name is David, my brother is Ray and my dad was Donald. Wherre do you fit into this web?

Re: Family of Henry Obert

2004-01-08 16:13:46Z

Hi Mike -- prior to reading one of your previous postings, I was unaware of an Obert book. I'm certainly curious about the contents and would like to learn more. I sent Terri an e-mail (to the address on her posting) just yesterday. Feel free to contact me directly at david.obert@usfc.com or djobert@earthlink.net. -- David

Re: Family of Henry Obert

2004-01-08 16:07:38Z

Okay Uncle Mike I will get all the info together and send it to you. Hope to hear from you again :) Thanks for making my birthday that much better, just for being here :) Love Terri

Re: Family of Henry Obert

2004-01-08 04:46:48Z

Hi Terri, This book was printed about 10 years ago by Ila Obert Bovee and I'm not even sure if she is still alive. I guess its up to each of us to enter the new information to keep things current. Each of us was given a questionaire before the book was published and that is how you see the entries for our family. Everyone was also notified before the book was printed and given a chance to place an order. I still have my original and have not made any changes. If you compile the new entries for Anita's and Donna's families, I'll add it to my book. If you need a copy of the book you can try to contact Ila Bovee, otherwise you will have to take mom's to someone like Kinkos and make a copy. Good luck, and the desert was fun!

There is another Obert that has to be related. Xavier Franz (Franz Zavier) Obert, who also lived in Cincinnati. I'm guessing he and Sebastion are cousins, but cannot find any documentation. Xavier had a daughter named Franzika who married a Kessheimer.

All help would be appreciated.
