Peggy- My family line is George W. Thein-Sturgis, SD. His daughter Ida Thein Murray is my
grandmother and her sister is Laura Thein Grubl. We have a copy of John Thein death
certificate and it has his birthdate as Dec. 8th. I am finding conflicting information
for Agnes Thein. I have been provided three different spelling for her last name: (a)
Hilbryant (b) Hillerant and (c) Hildebrand. I have been rearching all three names, but
the only name I located on the ship listing is Miss A. Hildebrand. The age for this
individual does correspond with Agnes. The ship was Herman and it entereed NY on October
27, 1855. Have you ever come across the name of Mary Kurz? I also located a John Thein
listed on the 1855 Wisconsin Census in Columbia County-but this census information is very
limited. Thanks for your assistance.
