Cheryl - I have just read your last message about the Dawald (Dewald) and Heim families in
Miami County. I inadvertently deleted the message to which you were responding - and
cannot remember what it was about. (TO the person who wrote that message - would you
please send me a copy to foxmor(a)airmail.net).
For many years I have tried to figure out how my gggrandmother, Mary Heim (born in PA)
wound up in Miami County Indiana. She was in the 1860 Miami Co. Ind.(Clay Tp.) census
with her husband, John Brenner, and children. Mary Heim Brenner's mother was Maria
Barbara Dewald Heim.
Could be that they were related to Samuel Dawald and wife Hannah Heim. Perhaps Mary came
to Indiana in 1845 with William and George Dawald. I will appreciate thoughts or
information about the above families.
