Message Board Post:
I am wondering if a Gustav F. Witt (b Dec 1861, Germany) is a relative of mine. He
emigrated between 1880 to 1883 to South Bend, St. Joseph County, Indiana, and married 4
times (acc. to the Indiana Marriage Index), first, to Augusta HUBER in 1886, then Ella
BESLER in 1928, to Jean M. DUCKER in 1935, and Nellie WEAVER in 1939. The first wife had
one child who died young (so says 1910 census). No other children are known born with
Gustav as the father. Gustav and his spouse are in all the censuses from 1900 to 1940, in
ward 1 usually. His address in 1930 is 522 Cushing, and in 1940 at 1001 Lincoln Way.
* * * I am mainly interested in both his exact birthday and death date and place. If
anyone can help, please respond. I am related to the family of August WITT (1834-1904,
Pulaski Co.IN) and Wilhelmine WEINKAUF (1833-1916, IN) and wonder if Gustav is their
oldest son. They did have a son by that name, but I am not sure where he resided in the
USA. Thanks for any help.
