My grandfather was born in 1888, Iowa.He was married to Florence, and both lived in Ackley. There are a few Roy Probasco's. Does this sound like your GGF?

I am researching the Probasco family - Andrew H. Probasco Junior married my grandmother and had 2 children Mary Ellen and Andrew - both of which are still living - Andrew left my Grandmother and she married Joseph Patrick Kelly (my grandfather). Any info would be great!

This message is quite old. I don't have any information on them as they are not my family. What I do have is a photo...but since this was a long time I would have to find it. I try to place a copy of the photo with descendants who are tracing their family history. I do charge a small fee to cover my own expenses and to replace so I can buy additional photos for other people. if interested you can email me at mseshea@optonline.net

Hi,
I have never heard of anyone surnamed Probasco who comes from Italy; we know the family to be from Breslau, Silesia. The ancestor of the Probasco family in America came from Breslau and emigrated to Brooklyn NY in 1654. You can learn more from my web site www.gwensarchive.com or from Nora Probasco's web site. I'd like to know more about your ancestor to see why his name was Probasco.

It has consumed me for over 10 yrs now. I use to work on gen. for over 50 hrs a week! I do not work outside the home so I tend to spend waaaaaaay to much time on this. I'm not as bad now, maybe 2 -3 hrs a day only. For me, that is good! lol. I use to wonder if they werent haunting me from the grave to find them! I was pretty bad! It was the last thing I did at nite, and the first thing I did in the morning! Sometime a shower didnt see me till noon! lol

Rosana Tracy's father was Patrick Tracy and mother was Mary Powers. Thier son James Patrick Tracy was the father to my son in law's mother.
The work I did on Probasco etc only falls into the line, but I enjoy gen. so much, that I sometimes dont just do a branch of the tree, but also little limbs! lol Iv been doing gen now for over 10 yrs and do it nearly every day, so sometimes I get way beyond my little branchs. lol

1920 Census of St Louis City. Elizabeth is 75 years old. She is enumerated with the City Sanitarium, as an inmate.

If you dont have ancestry let me know. I can copy it and send it to you so you will have the orig. doc.

Re: Andrew H. Probasco d: 1925 Mo,. wives Margaret + Rosanna

PattiandJohnM — 2010-09-20 19:45:44Z

you should be able to look that date up on newspaper film at the library and go back a few days from date of death and find an article if there was a shooting etc. South county lib has a good gen dept and would have those newspapers.

THANKS SO MUCH AND WILL YOU CHECK ON CHARLES PROBASCO BURIED IN BELLEFONTAINE CEMETERY. I DOUBT THAT YOU WILL HAVE ELIZBETH MENGE'S NAME FROM WHOM BERNARD AND CHARLES WERE BORN. AM ALSO TRYING TO SEE IF I CAN GET A COPY OF THE NEWSPAPER ON MAY6, OR 7TH ABOUT THE HOMICIDE OF BERNARD MENGE ON COMPTON AVE. IN 1905. BERNARD WAS ONLY 38 YEARS. I THINK THAT HIS EARLY DEATH CAN BE THE CAUSE OF SO MUCH CONFUSION. THANX SHIRLEY

Re: Andrew H. Probasco d: 1925 Mo,. wives Margaret + Rosanna

PattiandJohnM — 2010-09-20 17:51:32Z

No I did not know that. I will tell you that I got my info from a c.d. that I bought from the historical society. It also has on it. Catherine, Fannie, Martha, Andrew H. and Bernard all with last names of Menge. I also have on thier several by the last name of Meng without the end on the end. If you are interested let me know. I can call you (give me times, and email me) with your phone number.

Re: Andrew H. Probasco d: 1925 Mo,. wives Margaret + Rosanna

PattiandJohnM — 2010-09-20 17:23:44Z

Andrew Hiram that married Rosanna Tracy is the line I worked on. My son in law's mother was a Tracy.

I had found someone in Ut that worked on that line yrs ago but will not post the info on her. Email me at sudzi6648@yahoo.com if you want her info. Of hand, no I dont know of anyone in St Charles. I am in the city of St Louis and the family that I know here did not know anything on that line.

Re: Andrew H. Probasco d: 1925 Mo,. wives Margaret + Rosanna

PattiandJohnM — 2010-09-20 17:14:07Z

I didnt do anything at all on the Menge line. I had Eliz. maiden name and burial. Her and her husband are in Bellefountain cem. Any other questions you come up with feel free to ask. As I said I still have the file in my comp, so I can look up anything you may be interested. I'm in St Louis so a lot of it was easy for me to find that is why I worked on it. It is part of my grandson's line.

HI , Elizabeths last name was Menge, maiden name Fox, she had two children when she married Hiram Probasco, Laura and Bernard. Don't know who Bernards and Lauras father was. They were born in Louisiana. Sure would like to know who Andrew H. Menge that is buried in the same grave as Hiram and Elizabeth might be. Bernard is buried there also.
Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Andrew H. Probasco d: 1925 Mo,. wives Margaret + Rosanna

meathead1616 — 2010-09-19 23:05:15Z

FROM WHAT I HAVE LEARNED THERE IS ONLY ONE ELIZABETH FOX MENGE. SHE MARRIED HIRAM PROBASCO , HAD ALREADY 2 CHILDREN, LAURA AND BERNARD. ON BERNARD'S DEATH CERTIFICATE IT HAS HIS PLACE OF BIRTHA AS LOUISIANA , THERE IS A MENGE HOMEPLACE THERE AND RELATIVES I HAVE VISITED THERE. BUT JUST FINDING OUT ELIZABETH MARRIED HIRAM PROBASCO MAKES ME WONDER WHAT WAS THE NAME OF HER HUSBAND THAT SHE HAD HER CHILDREN BY. BERNARD WAS MURDERED IN 1905 WITH FUNERAL SERVICES FROM HIS MOTHER'S HOME, ELIZABETH PROBASCO ON MORGAN STREET. NOW MY ONLY MYSTERY IS WHO IS THE CHILDREN'S FATHER, THAT IS BERNARD AND LAURA'S FATHER. THERE IS A BURIAL OF ANDREW H. MENGE IN THE PLOT THAT HIRAM, ELIZABETH, BERNARD AND CHARLES PROBASCO IN THAT PLOT. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHO CHARLES PROBASCO IS. THERE IS AN INFT. OF CHARLES PROBASCO BURIED IN THAT PLOT ALSO. WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP.

Hi, you have no idea how much this has helped me in finding out what Bernard's Mothers name was. I don't know if you know that Bernard, Hiram, Andrew H. and Elizabeth Probasco are buried in the same grave. I want to thank you so much for helping me. I didn't even know a thing about Elizabeth until recently upon finding Bernards obituary saying his funeral would be at his mothers home on Morgan street. You can e-mail me at meathead1616@sbcglobal.net if you would. I would love to talk to you> Sincerly, Shirley

Would you call me at my home. Or e-mail me at meathead1616@sbcglobal.net. Do you know who Andrew H.Menge is? I have the grave plot and it shows Andrew H. Menge and Hiram Probasco buried on the same day . What relation was Andrew h. Menge to Hiram Probasco. It seems really odd that there is an Andrew H. Menge and Andrew H.Probasco. Don't know , sure is confusing.
Thanks for the reply ,

Re: Andrew H. Probasco d: 1925 Mo,. wives Margaret + Rosanna

meathead1616 — 2010-09-19 22:09:21Z

Do you know of a connection between Andrew H. Menge and Hiram Probasco. They were buried on the same day in 1893. Do you know of the connection between the Menge family and the Probasco. It is starting to look like maybe Andrew's wife was Elizabeth Probasco after his death( or maybe Elizabeth Probasco was Hiram Probasco's wife) I am truly confused who Andrew and Hiram are in relation to my Grandfather Bernard Menge who is also buried in that same grave are connected: and maybe she married Charles Probasco after Andrew's death. Any help would be good.

1870 census Hiram is 35, wife Lizzie is 23. They are living in St Louis City, Missouri Ward 6. Children are Laura 5, Bernard 2, Barber, Ella 15.

1880 census Hiram is 49 and born Missouri. Wife Lizzie is 36. Children are Laura 13, Bernard 13, Rosa 9, Andrew 6, Bertha 4, and Solomon 1. Note: there seems to be a mistake from the census taker on the children's ages. All children are born in Missouri. This family is living in St Louis City
