Forum zur Ahnenforschung

I am searching for Gottlieb R Böhringer ( <-- I am told this is the possible German spelling from older family BUT - no proof and they were not 100% sure on original spelling )

B Aug 1870 - Stuttgart, Neckarkreis, Württemberg, Germany

D USA - Dec 1938

Possible parents Gottlieb C Böhringer & Sofie Cath Roth ( again NO firm proof found as of now )

I would appreciate any direction for online research.

Detlef05 = YES I did

animei = this is what I have (below) Yes that record is Christening record in 1871 - NO not in Michigan always lived and Died in Chicago, Illinois, USA



----- Here is what I know or 'think" I know so far...

1910, 1910, 1920 = US Censu's ( has known children listed )

-----

Birth either = 8/15/1870 or 8/16/1870

-----

Lived & was married in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, USA = BOTH TIMES

---- First record ----

---- Second record ----

Illinois Death and Stillbirth Index,1916-1947

Died in a tragic home Fire in Chicago 12/7/1938 - His 2nd wife and their only child almost perished but were able to escape.


( I do know burial and death info - need proof of parents/siblings/birth - before USA)

I have his marriage liscense & found 2nd marriage info online.

Married to


1- Ida K Christensen ( unsure on her maiden name there has been some confusion & She died due to complications from female surgery) - they had 4 children

2-Delia Kennedy ( she had children with her 1st husband and was widower ) She married my grandfather and
together they had one son. Robert Gottlieb 1924-1995

I have family that verified the aprox birth, possible father & Mother's name, Both wifes.

BUT BEFORE HE came to the USA I am lost ... would like to find that info..

I appreciate your assistance I will search that link and see if I can find a link.

Have a Blessed day.

Hi animei,

Sorry for delay in response... I have the coroners report of his death. On this record the info for his place of birth just lists Unknown "GERMANY" // name for parents & their places of birth -- say the same thing.

I was able to find church he was married to my biological grandmother Ida.
They did send me a Marriage Certificate from the church - but they can not find any other records.

THATS ALL I HAVE !
See why I am lost !

Thanks Carol
