Theodore Schmidt {Smith}

Drgiggles13 — 2009-11-04 20:31:18Z

Looking for information on Theodore Schmidt b. 1838 in Germany, Father's name was possibly Frederick. Theodore went into England and was found there on the 1861 census, he was a furnaceman, he married Jane Ann Hart there about 1862, three of their children were born there and in 1868 they came to the US on board the SS Minnesota. They settled for a time in Frostberg Maryland and then came into Ohio. Theodore has been a very difficult person to research and I would really love to find out who his parents were and his family in Germany. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: Julius Schmidt, b Germany & Elizabeth Eavers, b Germany > Henry, b 1909, St Louis, MO

lindstromfamilytree — 2009-11-04 01:24:25Z

I have a Julius Schmidt, born in Germany, July 8, 1868, and later married to Elizabeth Evers, born 1872. Their daughter, Bertha Agnes Schmidt, born April 14, 1904, in Verona Missouri, was my grandmother.

Any idea if this is the same Julius Schmidt? Do you know of other children they may have had? Do you have more detail about Julius and/or Elizabeth?

I'm searching for Johann Heinrich Schmidt. He was born on 15th of September in 1817 in Gittersdorf, Hesse, Germany.

Saint Louis Schmidt's

johnfloydwhitaker — 2009-07-24 20:58:42Z

I am looking for info regarding some Schmidt's from Saint Louis and I keep coming up empty handed. My wife's great-grandma was Hilda Hohlfeld...Schmidt was her maiden name. Hilda was born in 3/23/1900 and passed 6/16/1992. According to my mother-in-law, Hilda had several brothers and sisters, but most of them died from influenza complications in 1918 or so. Some of the names that have been provided by my mother-in-law are as follows: Otto, Olivia, Helen, Freddie, Gertrude and Elsie. The first three, I'm told, died around 1918 as mentioned before. Freddie died a young boy as the result of being electrocuted by a downed power line. Gertrude, Elsie, and Hilda were the three lone survivors. Hilda went on to marry Ferdinand Hohlfeld and gave birth to a son, Russell, in 1918. Any information you might be able to provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Re: walter schmidt

SilverLady1891 — 2009-09-18 00:33:45Z

Thanks for the prompt reply !

Unless Isidore is an off-shoot relative to my line, I don't think there's a match here (Schmidt being as popular a surname as it was). My great-grandfather, Hermann, was born in 1888 to a Ferdinand and Bertha, and came to the US in 1913. Siblings that I know he had were Wanda, Reinhold, and Oskar (there were at least four others, likely more if family stories are to be believed).

It is possible that Isidore and Ferdinand were siblings, making your Walter a cousin to my great-grandfather, Hermann, but I'd need more info.

Re: walter schmidt

SilverLady1891 — 2009-09-17 21:14:12Z

I am part of a Schmidt family out of Lodz as well, and your dates line up with mine, to an extent (I know my great-great-grandfather came from a big family, but I don't know the names of all his siblings). Could you give me the names of Walter's parents and any other sibs he might of had ?

An option to search for SSD #s is to look up the LDS (Church of Latter Day Saints). Just type in LDS in a Google search box and go down to one that says "Family Search". Then just type in your info (the less the better) and hit search. Census info will crop up, international info, and SSD info too (all 50 States and territories).

Good luck !

Re: Saint Louis Schmidt's

jassyca — 2009-07-25 11:07:35Z

Go to the website of the Missouri state archives. Missouri began issuing death certificates starting around 1910 or 1911 and Missouri's state archives has an online database that allows you to search and view issued certicates up through the mid 1950's.

I did a quick search and found that they have a death certificate for an Otto Schmidt who died on December 5, 1918, in St. Louis city.

Oh! Be sure to also search on other spelling variations!

Hello SilverLady, and thank-you for your input. At the very least, Walter Eugene, was a very good family friend to my grandmother & g-grandmother.
The family info I have on Walter is that he came to this country in 1905 at 14yrs of age, on the SS Blucher, out of Hamburg. Ida was his mother. He had 2 sisters: Elsa (Hess) & Margarete. I believe his father was Julian. Elsa's husband was Isadore Hess.
Please write back & let me know if this is the same family.
