Subject: [MARION COUNTY, IN] baptism or birth record for Gerhard
Brinker--1879--St Andrew's Catholic Church
Dear Listers:
I am trying to find the birth or baptism record for Gerhard Brinker
born
about 1879 possibly in the Richmond area. His parents, John Burnett
Henry
(Johann Bernard Heinrich) Brinker and Agnes Weiss were married in
Richmond May
1878 in the St Andrews Catholic Church. Two other children were
baptised there:
Frederick Ferdinand in Apr 1881 and Catherine Eleanor in Apr 1883.
I suspect that Gerhard may have "died young" as no one seems to have
known
about him except my son-in-law's oldest great uncle who filled out a
family
tree chart, but Gerhard is not listed on any future censuses in
Missouri with
the family.
Would someone be so kind as to find out for me from the church records?
If
there is a small fee for copies or research please let me know. Thank
you in
advance for anything you can do for me.
