John Henry Theys came to America from Hesse Dormstadt Germany abt. 1883. He had six daughters and two sons at that time. His first wife died in childberth, second wife was Theresa. One daughter Lizzie, married Fred Halter, another daughter, Louise, married Cornelius Franzen, another daughter married John Lunou. There was a connection to the Lipp families in Dinver at that time also. Anyone with info on these families in Denver please contact me. I am a ggrandaughter to this John Henry Theys. My Theys line moved to Arizona approx 1919. I would love to share info.
