I am searching for the names of Susanna Kline's parents. She was born in Germany ca
1829, and came to America with her family before 1846. In 1846, She married Clark Wilcox
in Allen Co., IN. I am also searching for the names of Clark Wilcox's parents. I
know that he had a brother, Lester Wilcox who married Catherine Hippenhammer. Clark was
born in Chenango Co., NY ca 1824. Lester was also born in NY.
There was a Jedidiah Wilcox and a Gardner Wilcox living in Allen Co., IN during the 1840
census. Were either of them the parents of Clark Wilcox?
Any information on these two families would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sharon Wilcox

Hello All!
I am writing for some advice. I have exhausted every avenue that I am aware
of in locating the father of my GG Grandfather (Karl Herman) Harmon Krouse
(Mayer). He was born to Maria Magdalena Mayer on 5 Nov 1851 in the
adminstrative district of Tuttlingen, and the village of Muhlheim an der
Donau, which is located in the German state of Wuerttemburg. He was
illegitimate along with his brother Kosmas. They later took the surname
Krouse. The only reference to a name I have is located in the record of
births, marriages, and deaths at Saint Aloysisus Catholic Church in Yoder,
Allen Co., Indiana and is mentioned in both brothers entrys for marriage as
one Ferdinand Krouse (Crouse)/father. I have since obtained the parish
records from Muhlheim and no mention of a name is recorded (probably due to
illegitimacy). Further, I have been unsuccessful in finding a reference in
the Wuerttemburg emmigration records (the script is difficult and it is in
German). Any ideas on how I can navigate this roadblock would be
appreciated. Thanks for the help in advance!
