Schirmers in St Michael MN

jeanniefanning — 28 Oct 2007 11:41:54 GMT

Does anyone know the exact birth location of Nicholas Schirmers (married to Anna Ehlenz). The family sheets say Baustert, Rhineland, Prussia, Germany. I have found the Ehlenz on the Baustert microfilm, but not the Schirmers. Anyone have the microfilm on the Schirmers?
I know that Theodor Schirmers (married first to Anna Maria (Theilen) Thullen and second to Maria (Margaret) Becker) is Nicholas's brother. They have the same parents listed on their church family sheet in MN.
Any other information would be appreciated.

As you can see I don't have much to go on, but if this is ringing any bells please contact me!

John Ulrich Schirmer MO/??/CA

diannapratherparker — 21 Sep 2001 9:20:58 GMT

I just found a John U Schirmer listed as serving in the Civil War in Company D Unit 98 of the Pennsylvania Infantry.

I was wondering if this could be my John Ulrich Schirmer. Under the notes part of the listing it showed Schirmer and Ulrich.

The John Ulrich Schirmer I am researching was married in Missouri to Anna Barbara Winkelmann in 1848. He died in 1880, in Sacramento County, CA.

If any one has information that would help I'd appreciated it. I have more information on his wife and children.

Looking for any information concerning Schirmer in Canada. In particular any connection to a Anna Maria Schirmer who married Andre Hinsberger (Hinschberger) on 23 April 1850 in St. Agatha, Ontario, Canada. She is the daughter of Josef Schirmer and Maria Greising, formerly of Bavaria Germany.
Records at the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, also list a Walburga Schirmer who married a Laurentio (Lawrence) "priests like to put it all in latin" Diebold and had a son named Joannis (John) on June 23 1867.

I hadn't realized that there were so many Schirmers in the USA, and it makes me wonder how many there are in Canada and if they are all related.

my E-Mail is kleser0937@home.com

Thanks, looking forward to communicating with anyone connected.
