NIEMOLLER, SMITH, STONE posted by Jo Smith Swearingen on Saturday, April 9, 2011: I'm looking for information on Ignatz NIEMOLLER, born 1848 in Germany, arrived in the US in 1869. Ignatious is the Anglicized given name, but I've seen it spelled about 4 different ways, as is Niemoller (Nirmaller, Niemoeler, and more). I'd dearly love to track him back in Germany.
His wife was Susan F. STONE, born about 1862, in Illinois, father born in Tennesee, mother in Illinois. They had three children: Gertrude M., George J, and Susan R.
They were probably Catholics, and I know Gertrude lived in Lost Creek, Monroe, and Columbus, as well as Buchanan Missouri and Saskatchewan, Canada. She married Edward SMITH, not sure when or where. Any information on his ancestry would be appreciated too.
Thanks!

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Jerry Norris, 3627 So. 51st St, Omaha, NE 68106

BUNKER, EYMAN posted by Susan Glasgow on Monday, September 5, 2011: Sarah Bunker Eyman is my gggrandmother. She died due to illness in Columbus. I know my gggrandfather (John Eyman) is buried in Illinois. They and Sarah's parents and brother Milo moved to Nebraska, but I do not know what happened to them while they lived there or what happened to Sarah's parents, other than what I found in an obituary I found online. ANY information is welcomed! I do know that Milo's wife is buried next to Sarah at Columbus Cemetery. Thank you to anyone with information!
