| SOURCES: |
Anna Adelheid's parents' names were on both of
her marriage records, the first at St. Vincent de Paul parish and the second at Sts Peter
and Paul parish. Much of the remaining information was taken from Carol Holterhaus'
WorldConnect database. Anna's almost-exact birthdate, place of birth as Hannover and her
father's name were known from her obit which also gave the name of her husband and the
date of their marriage in St. Louis. The approximate year of her emigration was known also
from the obit which stated she had emigrated at age 14. From that she and her family were
identified on the passenger list of the ship Mata. The records of Werlte parish
were searched simply because of the occurance of the name Abeln in that part of Emsland
and her baptismal record was found there. The mother's surname was given as Lehe on the
baptismal records of Anna Adelheid and her siblings but as Hermes on their marriage
records. The mother had been born to Joseph Lee and Anna Hermes so the later switching of
of her surname may have had something to do with property ownership.

in 1855 at St Vincent de Paul parish. A son from the previous
marriage had been born in Vinnen so Holte parish records
were checked for a marriage record which supplied place
of birth. Werlte parish records were then checked and
a corresponding birth/bapt record was found there for

This emigrant is included on a website for
persons with the Abeln surname.
(http://www.casema.net/~abeln/index.htm - listed as Gerardus Henricus Abeln) |
| SOURCES: |
Henry's year of birth was known from his age
on censuses and it was known that his wife had been baptized in Meppen parish. A baptism
record for Henry, however, was not found in that parish even though their marriage had
taken place there. An entry was eventually found for Henry on an Abeln website (url above)
which gave his exact date and place of birth which was then verified in the Gross Hesepe
parish records. The baptismal record for the child born in 1854 was at St. Joseph parish,
for the children born 1856-67 at St. Ferdinand, and for the child born in 1870 at Sacred
Heart.

Herman's parents' names were on his marriage
record at St Joseph parish. On a website for the Abeln family (no longer online it seems)
an entry for this emigrant was identified by his parents' names and on it a date and place
of birth were given. These parents also had a daughter named Maria Helena born in 1810.
Meppen parish records were checked and a corresponding entry was found there for Herman
Engelbrink. No US document has been found yet for Herman which gives his age so there is
some possibility that there may have been another child named Herman Engelbert born to the
same couple but none was listed for them on the website mentioned above. So far, Herman
Engelbert and his wife have not been found on record after their marriage in 1850.

| SOURCES: |
Johan Herman's parents' names and his age (28)
were on his marriage record at Sts Peter and Paul and were also known from the passenger
list of the ship Mata. Werlte parish records were checked because of the
occurance of the surname Abeln in that part of Emsland and a corresponding baptismal entry
was found there for Johan Herman. The mother's surname was given as Lehe on the baptismal
records of Johan Herman and his siblings but as Hermes on their marriage records. The
mother had been born to Joseph Lee and Anna Hermes so the later switching of her surname
may have had something to do with property ownership.

Maria Catharine was a witness in April of 1846
at the marriage of her sister Tecla to Anton Tonjes. She died a few months later. |
| SOURCES: |
Maria Catharine's parents' names were not on
her death record at St Vincent de Paul parish but her age was. Several of her siblings who
were also living in the same part of St. Louis at that same time had already been
identified and Maria Catharine was easily recognized as their sister from her age on the
passenger list of the ship Mata. The parish records of Werlte were checked
because of the occurance of the name Abeln there and a baptismal entry was found in that
parish's records for Maria Catharine. The mother's surname was given as Lehe on the
baptismal records of Maria Catharine and her siblings but as Hermes on their marriage
records. The mother had been born to Joseph Lee and Anna Hermes so the later switching of
of her surname may have had something to do with property ownership.

Tecla's parents' names were on her marriage
record at St Vincent de Paul parish. Her approximate year of birth was known from her age
on the passenger list of the ship Mata. The parish records of Werlte were checked
because of the occurance of the name Abeln there and a baptismal entry was found in that
parish's records for Tecla. The mother's surname was given as Lehe on the baptismal
records of Tecla and her siblings but as Hermes on their marriage records. The mother had
been born to Joseph Lee and Anna Hermes so the later switching of of her surname may have
had something to do with property ownership.

about this emigrant. |
| SOURCES: |
Thecla's parents'
names were not found on any IL document but an exact birthdate
was known for her. Because the name is often found in areas
of Emsland north of the Hase River and along the border
with Oldenburg, Werlte parish records were checked and an
entry was found for Thecla on the same date as the one known
from an Illinois document. Her marriage was at St Mary's
parish in Brussells, IL. Information about the children
was taken from censuses.

This ID is not 100% certain but seems
likely because the surname is not common.
Herman's month and year of birth were noted on the 1900
census. That information allowed an entry for him to be
identified in Walter Tenfelde's book Auswanderungen und
Auswanderer aus dem ehemaligen Kreise Lingen nach Nordamerika
which supplied date and place of birth and parents' names.
Tenfelde's emigration date was 1872 while the 1900 census
said he emigrated in 1880.
