Anna Tecklenburg married Herman C Bergmann in about 1865, and it is assumed she died by 1870ish because then Herman married Carolina/Lena in 1871 (Montgomery county for sure on this one). Anna and Herman had at least one child together, Mary Louise Bergmann (born in 1866)who married Carl Weber/Webber. Henry William and the others were born to Herman and Carolina/Lena. Both women would have been born around 1840 - 1845ish...

Caroline Madgalina Tecklenburg, born Dec 03, 1878 in Carlinville, Macoupin County, Illinois is the daughter of William Frank Tecklenburg & Mary Marko (in my trees online). She had a sister, born Sep 7 1880, but I did not have her name. Family is enumerated with Charles Bremer in 1900 (US Fed Census, Missouri, Monroe County, Union Township, Sheet 12).

I assume it was Anna that married Herman? I have nothing on her, so would like to exchange info.

I have an Anna and Carolina/Lena Tecklenburg whom it is believed are sisters. Both lived in the Macoupin County (Carlinville IL) area and Montgomery County (Raymond IL) area and married a man named Herman C Bergmann (1839 - 1898). We are stuck on this family name...

Thank you for your prompt reply to my posting. Unless, Henry Tecklinburg, who served in the 24th IL Infantry, Company D, was a polygamist, and I'm beginning to wonder :), I have his widow's pension application and Johanna Bader was not the widow of this Henry. Please contact me at Donnag@msn.com so that we are able to exchange further information. Thanks, so much!

Pinzer2 — 2011-06-17 17:12:59Z

Thank you for contacting me regarding Henry Tecklenburg of Belleville. I do believe he served for the Union in the 32nd IL Infantry, Company "H" and in the 24th IL Infantry, Company "D", during the Civil War. Johanna Bader was his widow that applied for pension?

I traced the family of Henry Tecklenburg as a result of the name being so rare and the fact that my ancestor, Friedrich Wilhelm Tecklenburg, resided in Mascoutah about 10 miles west of Belleville in St Clair County. I'm not sure if Henry's family is related, but in my quest for the Tecklenburgs of St Clair County I have collected some data on Henry's family as I sorted out who belonged to whom...so I then put the info into my tree hoping that I could tie them together one day.

I have traced my Tecklenburg ancestry into Bückeburg, Schaumburg-Lippe, Germany. I engaged the Immigrant Genealogical Society in California to conduct a search of the Bückeburg Parish Records, which are in Old German Script and very difficult to decipher without knowledge of that script. 1835 baptismal records were searched and nothing for Henry was found.

Please send me a private note through the message service with your email so that I can share files, etc.

Re: Horton and Tecklenberg

audreyhancock — 2010-10-10 00:27:27Z

Don't know if I can help much. My great aunt married a Tecklenberg, so have done a little checking on the family. I have found Leopold Friedrich Tecklenberg b Bet. 20 Jan–16 Feb 1799 Ubeckinsun (?) Curhessen; died 10 April 1888; given as the father of Heinrich Tecklenberg and Henrietta Johanne Tecklenberg among others: Sophia Ernestine Caroline; Leopold; & Eduard/Edward, but I have no Augusta. Heinrich was the father-in-law of my Catherine (Lehmann) Tecklenberg, wife of Henry Tecklenberg, who lived in Ft. Loramie, Shelby Co., OH. Leopold's wife is given as Ernestina Sophia Eleonore Witte b 06 Jan 1800; d before 1849.

The information I have shows Henrietta born Sep 1839; married Alphons Horton. This is all the information I have accumulated from my research, so more details will need to be found. I would assume that this may be the same family since Auglaize Co. and Shelby Co. are adjacent counties.

Hope it helps so you can go forward with more research and make your family connection.

Horton and Tecklenberg

lindawelch1 — 2010-10-08 18:02:30Z

I am looking for the parents of Henrietta "Hattie" Tecklenberg, b. Ohio, ca. 1840. She m. in New Bremen, Auglaize County, Ohio, 17 Dec., 1863, Alpheus Horton. (I am working on the Horton line). It looks like she had a sister named Augusta who m. in same town, 12 July, 1870, Frederick Schoettle. Also, Leopold Tecklenburg and wife Sophia (Ludson) Tecklenburg had a daughter named Emma in New Bremen, 22 Feb., 1870. New Bremen was a very small community with many Immigrants.

Any help would be appreciated. This is NOT my immediate family, but connects to a person in our Horton line..

Louis is enumerated with his parents in the U.S. 1880 & 1900 Census in Du Quoin, Perry County, Illinois.

1880 Family listed is listed as:

Fred Age 37, b Hanover, Parents b. Hanover
Occupation: Grocer
Caroline Wife Age 29, b. IL, Parents b. Nassau

This same family, of Fred Tecklenburg, appears in the 1900 census, where Louis is listed as born Nov 1877. The 1900 census indicated Fred immigrated to US in 1863.
He MIGHT be the "Frederick Tocklenberg" who immigrated to the U.S. aboard the SS New York, bound from Bremen and arriving in New York on 09/02/1863, which indicated he was from Oesede.

2. LOUISE3 TECKLENBURG (LOUIS C2, ??1) was born July 1863 in St. Clair County, Illinois. She married (1) JACOB FIX April 27, 1886 in Belleville, St. Clair County, Illinois. He was born in Germany, and died Bef. 1890. She married (2) MARTIN ZEHNDER September 15, 1897 in St. Louis, Missouri, son of MARTIN ZEHNDER and MARIE DOLDT. He was born November 04, 1859 in Germany, and died February 06, 1941 in St. Louis, Missouri.

Notes for LOUISE TECKLENBURG:
With her son Louis, Louise attended funeral service of Charles Heer in Mascoutah on 07/03/1925. Charles Heer was the husband of Mathilda Tecklenburg, daughter of Friedrich Wilhelm Tecklenburg and Maria Eva Damabach. A Mr and Mrs. Zehnder also attended the funeral of Phillipina Eleanora Single (nee Tecklenburg). It is likely that Freidrich Tecklenburg and Phillipina Single were related to Louise, whose father was Louis Tecklenburg.

Thank you, Joe, for that information regarding the Bueckeburg Archives and for all the spelling variations. I am still "stuck" at this point, unable to get back any further, but maybe I can check into those church archives. That was a good tip. Good luck on your research.

Re: H. W. Tecklenburg of Germany

Hello Mary,

I have seen the "Tecklenburg" surname interpreted as "Teklenberg", "Tekelnburg", "Ticklenburg" "Jecklenburg", "Fecklenburg", "Tacklenburg" and sometimes with -berg as the suffix vs. -burg. My branch of "Tecks" are sometimes found without the 'c' in the Bueckeburg Church records. The IGS {Immigrant Genealogy Society} in Burbank, Calif. has the Bueckeburg Church Archives.

Re: H. W. Tecklenburg of Germany

2004-07-12 01:59:48Z

Hello,
I am researching the name "Teckleberg" which I found in a church record for my great, great grandmother. She was married to Heinrich Woebbeking and their children lived around Buckeburg. Could this name be Tecklenburg instead? Have you ever heard of the name Teckleberg in your research? Any opinion or help would be greatly appreciated. Three of their children, Woebbekings, settled in Springfield, Illinois, in the 1880's.
Thanks,
Mary

Re: Fred W Tecklenburg

I do not know of a direct tie to the Ohio Tecklenburgs, however two of my Tecklenburg immigrant ancestors resided in Indiana/Ohio area during the 1850s prior to settling in Illinois, so there is a good chance there is a connection. The earliest Ohio record for a Tecklenburg that I am aware of is the marriage of Frederick Tecklenburg to Catherine Lamping on Dec 13, 1849 in Auglaize, Ohio. Your William and the above mentioned Frederick could be the same person or could be brothers. Also might be a cousin of the Illinois immigrants...but I would need a firm birth date to definitely tie him to the Buckeburg baptismal records.

My husband's ancestor Jacob Single married Philipina Tecklenburg. Their daughter Dorothea Single married William Schlicher. Their daughter Elenora married Oscar Weaver and they are my husband's grandparents.

I would love to share information with you if any of this fits.

Re: Fred W Tecklenburg

Are there any ties to the Cincinnati area? I have Teklenburgs (many spellings) there in the mid-1800s. A William Teklenburg and his wife, Dorothy Schroeder or Schroer, had a son (William H.) in 1859 in the Cincinnati area. William H. married Rosa Winkelman and had children Elmore (1882), Lotta C. --aka Lottie--(1885) and William E. (1887). Lottie was my great-grandmother. She married Frank Henry Krueger, had two children, lived in Vincennes, Knox County, Indiana for awhile, and died in 1913. I haven't gone very far on this family yet. Anything sound familiar?

Likely siblings/relatives of Friedrich living in Masoutah in the 1860s included Christian Tecklenburg, Louis Tecklenburg and Phillipina Eleanora Single (nee Tecklenburg).
