I am descended from the Oliger (Olinger) family that settled in Jennings
County from Cincinnati in the mid-1800s. I believe Wendall Oliger (son of
Benedict and Babal) died in Jennings County circa 1867. I believe his wife
was Maria Newhouse, and that both Wendall and Maria were born in the
Alsace-Lorraine area of France. I would appreciate contact with anyone else
who might be researching this line. I'm especially interested in learning
more about when the Oligers and Newhouse's emigrated.
Sincerely,
Mike Bates
