BowlIL — 2008-07-25 22:03:52Z

I have a Catharine Louise Trampe born 1860 in Lavelsloh who was the daughter of Johann Conrad Trampe born 1810 in Lavelsloh. Would this by chance be the same person? I am looking for Trampes who came to St. Louis that may be related to our branch dating back to Friedrich Wilhelm Trampe born May 12, 1764 in Diepenau. E-mail me at macs1one@yahoo.com

Re: Trampe Family- Please Help!

Hi, Don't know if this Web site might help. It lists an Ernst Wilhelm "William in America" Trampe born 1827. It also lists a Wilhelm b 1854 and a brother Caspar born 1856 at the Web site listed below. I found my Trampe ancestors in Lavelsloh, which is close by. They came to America in 1856 and settled in Metropolis, IL after traveling to St. Louis to spend the winter with relatives.
Let me know if you have any problems and I will try to help. Sharon Trampe e-mail: macs1one@yahoo.com

Dear Adam, I have found a German Web Site that you might find very interesting. I haven’t had time to check yet to see if we might be related, but my Gr. Gr. Grandfather was Johann Heinrich Trampe born Nov. 11, 1799. He came Metropolis, Illinois to be with his sons, August Wilhelm Trampe, born Nov. 4, 1839, and his brother, Henry Kunrad Trampe, born Feb. 22, 1837. I had a Gr. Gr. Uncle who stayed in Germany and his family now live in Lavelsloh. I grew up in Metropolis and have also been searching for family in the same area as you. Our branch is from the Diepenau area, and I have found living family members in Lavelsloh, which we visited in 2003!

The Web site is: http://www.ortsfamilienbuecher.de/

and I found your Gr. Grandfather Heinrich Friedrich b. 17 Nov 1867 and his father Ernst Heinrich Wilhelm Trampe b. 21 Jan 1827 listed. I copied the Address below and it should go directly to the family report. The information is in the “Local heritage book Lohne”

http://www.ortsfamilienbuecher.de/famreport.php?ofb=loehne&a...

Good Luck with your search. I would appreciate know more about how your gr grandparents came to America. I'm working on a web site but I'm just learning on my own so it's slow going.

If you have trouble with the above address this is how I found it:

Re: Trampe in Wisconsin

You are probably related to me. The Iowa Trampe's are related to me, but I don't know if the Nebraska Trampe's are. You might be the "missing link" so to speak. My great-grandparents came from Pomerania in the 1890's. They were Carl and Auguste Schmidt Wendorf. Their daughter Bertha married my grandfather Julius Trampe who came from Pomerania also in about the same time period. Another daughter married a Marquardt. I don't know of any Gnirk's in the family tree.

What a dlight to find your letter!! I've switched jobs, and have very little time to work on the computer (at the library). I haven't been down here for about 2 months. So, can we keep in touch the 'old fashioned' way via mail?

My address is Glenda Kraft, 2511 Melencamp, Dodge City, Kansas, 67801. Phone is 620-225-5642.

The information you have is right on key to my family: Moletors in Offerle are directly tied to Grandmother Susie Trimpa Padget in Ford, Kansas.

I'll be more than glad to share anything I have.

Here's hoping....

Re: Trampe history

2005-05-11 12:47:02Z

Thanks for your interest. My line has always been Trampe and settled in Illinois. None of them were in Kansas. I understand there are quite a few Trampes in Nebraska, but there is no connection to my line.

our family history includes frank trimpa (trampe) and a twin brother jeff stowing away on a ship from germany late 1850 or early 1860. no one knows what happened to jeff, and because there is no immigration record, we can't find anything about frank.
any connections?
thanks

Re: Trampe history

2005-03-04 21:33:54Z

This is a total shot in the dark, but I am literally desperate to find any information on my gr,gr,gr.grandfather. Grandma's name was Trimpa, but there's a lot of speculation that her father changed the spelling from Trampe. In about 1859 Frank Trampe(?), along with twin brother Jeff, stowed away on a ship to America to evade the army. I find NO info. about either of them. Can you help?

Thanks

Thanks again

Re: Leonard and Ruth Trampe

2003-07-14 04:48:05Z

Yes. THey live in Metropolis IL. I believe they are both still alive. They were very close to my grandparents, Wilbur Arensman was Leonard "Penny" Trampe's first cousin.

I believe they attend St. Paul's Lutheran Church in town.

Re: He was known as "Old Man Trampe" homesteaded near Gunnison Colorado

2003-07-14 04:45:36Z

I believe that George was my grandfather, Wilbur Arensman's, first cousin. Wilbur spend several summers in Gunnison as a teenager helping on the ranch there.

Is Bill Trampe still a rancher out there? On a family vacation in 1979, my family stopped by his ranch.

Re: Ella Trampe

2003-07-14 04:41:23Z

Is it possibly St. John's Cemetary?
I believe there are also Trampe's at Powers Church, but the woods in the background almost makes me think of St. John's.
My grandparents are buried there- Trampes there as well, from my grandfather's side.

jeffanddawne — 2006-07-18 20:48:03Z

My Grandmother, Louise Kasten, born in Germany, died in Portage, WI Feb. 4, 1956. She is buried in Milwaukee, WI. Some of the pallbearers at her funeral were, Julius Trampe, Mukwanago, WI, Walter Trampe and Albert Trampe, Waukesha, WI. I'm looking for information on how the Trampe family is related to mine, if at all.

Re: Trampe history

ttrimpa — 2005-05-11 03:43:24Z

It seems to me as a child my grandmother Myrtle Trimpa spoke of perhaps some Trimpa's pronouncing their name as Trimpe. She married My grandfather Thomas W. Trimpa. Whose mother was Kate Molitore Trimpa. She was married to Frank Trimpa. They settled in Western Kansas on a farm near the small town of Orfrel-(sp?). Frank's wife's father was Joseph Molitore who came across from Barvaria in the mid 1800's. The Molitors settles outside Spearville, Kansas this town was near Dodge City, Kansas and I have heard stories of them chartering an early bank in that area. What do you think? Did any of this information help you? Please respond, I would like to hear from you.
Thomas N. Trimpa

Re: Trampe in Wisconsin

telh — 2003-08-18 02:14:17Z

I believe you are a 2nd cousin of mine. I think you're grandmother, Louise Kasten was originally Louise Wendorf and a sister of my grandmother, Bertha Wendorf. Louise married a Kasten and moved to Portage. My grandmother married Julius Trampe and moved to Waukesha. My father, also Julius, was born there. If you're interested in more details I think a late 1st cousin of mine may have found out more. His son has his records.

Re: Trampe in Wisconsin

telh — 2003-08-18 02:14:17Z

But I wasn't completely right. You have a lot more details that I was never completely clear about.
First of all, you said that your grandmother Louise's maiden name was Wendorf. Wouldn't it be Marguardt, her father's last name?
You and I are not 2nd cousins as I mistakenly said in my last posting. Your mother is my 2nd cousin. You and I are 2nd cousins-once-removed. Carl Wendorf and Augusta Schmidt are my great-grandparents. They are your great-great-grandparents.
I have pictures of your great-grandmother "Tina". We knew her as Tanta (German for Aunt) Tina. I and my family visited her and Bill Marguardt, Jr. many times. We were at her 90th birthday party which would have been in October '53. I was 13 at the time.
Albertina and Bertha (my grandmother) were sisters.
Walter Hollup was my father's brother-in-law. He was married to my Aunt Bertha (not to be confused with her mother Bertha).
It seems as if that part of the family only used a few names and it is confusing. There were many Carl's, Bertha's, Louise's, Albert or Albertina's, Johann's, Elsie's, William's.
Thanks for clearing some things up for me. When I was younger I never paid much attention to who was who. I'm not into genealogy but sometimes its interesting to find these things out.
