I was just browsing the newspaper today and read that Peter Ebert and his wife Sophia Bast Ebert celebrated their golden wedding anniversary at the home of their son-in-law Christ. Rasch, in South Chicago. They had been living in Milwaukee since 1862, but then moved to Kansas City to live with their son about 5 years previous to this event. Both were born in Treptow (on the Rega River) Pommern, but were married in Zinndorfe, Pommern.
Maybe you got all this from the library already.
