FISCHER • HARDMAN\HARDTMAN • HEWITT(s) • JOHNSON • LEE • MCELROY • MERRILL • WALES • WIGHT

I am looking for information about the Thomas and Charlotte (nee Hardman\Hardtman) Hewitt Family. They show up in the 1870 census in Chamois, Osage, Missouri. Their children were: Aunt Mag---Margaret B. b 1856 Iowa married William MCELROY, Aunt Lib---Mary Elizabeth b 1857 Iowa married Marcellus WIGHT, Henry V b 1859 died, Aunt Vic---Anna Victoria b 1862 Mo married? MERRILL, Joseph P. b 1864 Chamois never married died, Addison A b 1866 Chamois died, Aunt None---Nora R. b 1869 Chamois married Lester or Lee JOHNSON, Aunt Sade---Sadie or Sada b 1872 Chamois married Edward WALES, Aunt Toss--- Laura Lena b 1873 Chamois married Edward FISCHER (my grandparents), and Aunt Nell---Nellie Ann b 1877 Chamois married Frank LEE. I am also interested in finding anything about Joseph MERRILL b 1889 Mo(most likely Osage County. Did he marry and have a family? There is a Rebecca HEWITT b 1852 Mo living with a LEWIS family on the 1870 census next door to my HEWITTS. How is she related to this family? Charlotte HEWITT had ll children but I can account for only 10. Does anyone know who the 11th child is? It is not Rebecca. One of my father's cousins said there was an Aunt Bessie? He died just recently and I didn't get a chance to ask questions. Charlotte and Thomas HEWITT, Ephraim HEWITT( Thomas' father) probably Addison and Joseph P HEWITT, and Edward FISCHER are buried in the Shobe Cemetery. Years ago, someone from Chamois took all the HEWITT markers out and replaced them with one nice granite HEWITT family stone that has no information on it. Does anyone out there know who did this and what relation are they to the HEWITTS? Are there any decendants or family members of any of these people still living close in the area? I have so many questions that I would like answered. Judith L Barrett

ROSIEN • HAIN • SEIFERT • WEISSENBACH

Theodor ROSIEN and his family immigrated in 1881 or 1882. He married Christine HAIN 16 Nov 1885. I believe this was a second marriage. Pauline, daughter of Theodor, was born about 1881 in Prussia. She died in 1938 as SEIFERT. Who did she marry? In Gasconade County in the ROSIEN cemetery a woman and her son are buried. There is a notation in the Gasconade County Cemetery Survey that this is the mother and brother of Pauline. However, Christine is buried with Theodor and graves are in Clary cemetery. Who was the mother of Pauline? When did she die? Who is the little brother of Pauline? A daughter of Theodor and Christine, Margaret, married Gus WEISSENBACH in 1906. They are buried at St. Peter's Cem. in Fredericksburg. There were other daughters who survived. A brother, Richard, died as a baby. Are there any ROSIEN descendants in Osage County yet? 1913 Plat Map of Osage County shows Gus WEISSENBACH and August WEISSENBACH had farms in Benton Township. Are there any descendants of these families still in the area? I would like to contact them if there are living descendants.
