Re: SCHMID, Joseph - Germany to Buffalo, NY

Karen_Freiman — 2009-11-04 23:42:04Z

Any relation to Joseph and Catherine (Henn) Schmid. Joseph was born in Bavaria in 1926 and died in Buffalo in the insane assylum in 1887. He was a teamster. Catherine Henn Schmid was born in Bavaria in 1828 in Kaiserslautern Pflaz, Germany and died in 1905 in Buffalo New York. I believe they were members of the First German Baptist Church in Buffalo which is now boarded up. They had 5 children: Mary Schmid, Anna Schmid Ertell, William Schmid, Emma Schmid Stern and Joseph E. Schmid (Smith).
Any leads would be greatly appreciated

Re: Louis Schmid of Hausin, Germany and Washington, DC

kdschmid_1 — 2008-10-13 03:52:16Z

George died in 1918 when my father was just 6. Oral history has it that he had a brother named Jack (presumed to be a nick name) who ran a saloon in Montana. Jack died after George did. This and a picture of my great grand parents is all that I know about George's family.
I don't know who to contact in Hausen. My grandmother was norwegian lutheran. I don't know of any specific region for my grandfather but checking the lutheran church records would be a good first start.

Re: Louis Schmid of Hausin, Germany and Washington, DC

Thank you for your reply. Do you know if your George had any siblings? Did he or his descendants come to the US? Also - do you have any recommendations as to who I could contact in Hausen to search for additional records?

My grandfather, George Edward Schmid B1868 was from Hausen Germany. I believe that he was from a town with that name southwest of Ulm, Wuertenberg. He was a butcher and I believe he worked in his father's butcher shop in Germany.

My grandfather was George Edward Schmid from Hausen Germany. I believe it was on the Danube river near the boden sea near Switzerland. George immigrated in 1892 to Minnesota. He had a brother name Jack that lived in Montana. Could they be from your family?

Louis Schmid of Hausin, Germany and Washington, DC

lduschl — 2008-05-27 00:47:52Z

Have narrowed my search for Louis Schmid to birthplace of Hausin (Hausen?), Germany. Born January 4, 1824, came to US via New York approximately 1851, settled in Washington DC for many years, had a store with his sons - sold birds, floral supplies. Also had a paper box factory. Died March 23, 1892 in Washington DC. Can anyone help me pin down his city of birth? There are several towns named "Hausen" in Germany.

SCHMID to SCHMIDT 1880's EATON, MI

2006-03-04 00:00:42Z

Recently I have been trying to research my grandson's paternal family. I found where name changes to Schmidt in 1880's in Michigan with George Schmidt. German records indicate and corrolate with the 1880 census Georg Konrad Schmid and wife Elisabethe Barbara Wannenwetsch. Living in Eaton County Mi in 1880 as George and Barbara Schmidt.

I have done some tracing back and come up with surnames Reihm, Keinath, Kraemer, Bantel, Gumpper, Raiser,Binder,Klett, Huber, Streicher, Ruoffand Ackerknecht.

Can anyone connect to these surnames and the Schmid to Schmidt in Michigan, Eaton County to St. Clair County Michigan??????????

Hopefully am not chasing my tail LOL

Happy hunting all, and any help would be very appreciated, although my grandson is only 1 year old he will appreciate his Oma doing this someday.

Thanks much,

Ann, I am curious. You mention Jacob and Mary had 3 children, would you happen to know those childrens names. Perhaps you already know, or is it possible that Jacob went back to Germany? My Matthew Schmid was born in 1867 in Württemberg, Germany and immigrated to USA abt. 1887. Would like to rule one way or the other whether your Jacob could be the father to my Matthew. Based on Matthew's DC, his father was named Jacob and mother "unknown'...
Thanks Much for your time.

Our name 'SMIDDY' appears to have been formed from SCHMID, and to be of German extraction. In Irish they call it Schmid. (The diary of Rev. Richard Cannon Smiddy - (October the 6th 1840)

I am researching the Smiddy surname and came across the above which was included in the diary of Rev. Richard Cannon Smiddy 1840.
Has anyone heard of a connection between Smiddy and Schmid?

I am searching for the parents of my Mathias (AKA Matthew) Schmid (AKA Schmidt) also from Wuerttemberg, Germany. Matthew is believed to of immigrated to USA bet. 1887 and 1889.

I am assuming that Logan is somewhere is the US and assuming you don't live near it? If yes:

Sometimes the newspaper itself keeps old issues on microfilm in its building. They might be willing to print and send a copy for a fee, but I am not sure.

The other option is to check at the state and/or county archives. There is also where you will find any biographical information. This will cost a fee; for the research, copies, and postage.

You can also place a look-up request on the county boards here, or see if the county as a USGENWEB Project website. If they do, then there might be a place to list look-up requests and queries and/or a list of volunteers willing to look things up. These look-ups might be free or cost a reasonable fee (usually cost of the copy and postage).

I am not sure how this advise will help if Logan is not located in the US.

If by chance I am wrong in my assumation and you do live in or near Logan the local library might have old issues of the newspaper on microfilm. And will only cost you the price of the copy. The prices for the state/local archives will also be cheaper if you live within driving distance. They too might just charge for the price of copies.

I am not sure how this advise will help if Logan is not located in the US, but it might be a good start.

One more word of advise: Be more specific in your locations, not everybody knows where a place is located or their might be multiple places with the same name. If you don't know the specific state, give the county if you know it and the country. That will make it a lot easier for others to answer your queries.

Good luck in your search.

Re: Sophie Wilhelmine Braul; Christian Schmid (Schmidt); Abraham Schmidt

MichaelLanglois1963 — 2008-02-17 00:13:21Z

Hi,

Thank you for replying.

The certificate was a typed transcript, so I believe it may have been transcribed from the original. It listed Abraham as a carpenter. It did not say where Abraham Schmidt came from.

I spoke with my Aunt recently who is a granddaughter of Christian and Sophie Schmid. She originally believed that Sophie was born at sea to a German mother and an American father, however this can't be verified. She also thought Sophie Wilhelmine Braul's birth was registered at the first available port which was Hamburg, Germany. She also believed Sophie was brought up by her German mother and she ran away to Switzerland where she met Christian Schmid. A lot of supposition, I know, but unfortunately I don't have much to go on. There is nothing else on the marriage certificate that could help. I know Braul is a German name, so she may have taken her mother's name. Thank you for your interest anyway.

Regards

Michael Langlois

MichaelLanglois1963 — 2008-02-14 00:13:56Z

I have previously sought assistance re the whereabouts of relatives/ancestors of the above two persons without any success.

Sophie Wilhemine Braul, born abt 1862 in Canton Berne, Switzerland (1901 UK census). Sophie married Christian Schmid (as per name on 1901 UK census), however married name was 'Schmidt'. Initially I was unsure of Sophie's maiden name and thought it was 'Brand', however it has been confirmed as "Braul". I am not sure whether Sophie has taken her mother's surname or the name of her 'lost' father.

Christian in the 1901 UK census is listed as beng born in Frutigen, Switzerland, born abt 1858. Their marriage records indicate that Christian was the son of Abraham Schmidt. Sophie's father however is indicated as being 'lost at sea'. There is no mention of the mother's names.

They were married in St. Pancras, London on December 8 1890. They had a daughter Sophie W, born about 1896 in Switzerland, a daughter Elizabeth Clara, born 1897 (in Chelsea, London; d 1994 Elizabeth Clare Pritchard) and another daughter, Rosina, born 1899 (Chelsea, London, d 1981, Melbourne, Australia), my grandmother.

Sophie Wilhemine Schmid died in 1930 in London. Christian (Schmidt) died in London in 1937.

If there is anyone out there that could assist in some way, shape or form, I would be eternally grateful.
