Greetings list members,
Just subscribed to this list to determine if I can track this Allgeier
family to the many that have arrived from Baden in the 19th century.
If anyone or perhaps a descendant of this family has any information I'd
enjoy corresponding with you. The family in question is Anthony Allgeier and
Justina (?) born around January 1852 in Indiana, but perhaps this Anthony was
born in Baden and listed Indiana as his birth place. He married in 1882 and
had 7 children by the 1900 census: Fred 1884; Nicholas1885; Erma 1887;
Anthony 1889; Rose 1892; Martha 1896; and Marie 1899. It appears that there are
other Allgeier families in Allen County, too.
My original Allgeier family settled in Mercer County Ohio, before moving
south to Cincinnati and northern Kentucky. So this area of the country was
very much sought after by our immigrant families because of the climate and
conditions.
Greetings,
Tim Allgeyer
Cincinnati
