Subject: Grace Jones School
Along
with my cousin, I've been trying to gather information and verify some known
facts about my Wisconsin ancestors. My great great
grandmother Annabella Brennan
came to America with her parents and siblings in 1845 and settled in
Watertown. She attended "Grace Jones Private School" ??? I can find no information or references to this
school in any of my searches. Do you have any information? I am
also unsure of how many siblings there were. One note states she was the
oldest of eight children. Her father, Patrick Brennan was working for the
railroad in Attica, Indiana in 1850 and died there in an accident in 1855 but
we have no knowledge of where he was buried. Her grandfather James
Brennan settled in Clyman in 1843 and died in 1865 in
Watertown at least he is apparently buried
there. Annabella Brennan married Ernest Schwellenbach of Jefferson in
1855. My great grandmother Nellie A. Schwellenbach
was born in Jefferson in 1860 but I suspect she attended school in Watertown
because in an autograph book I have of hers -circa 1878-82 some of the signers
are from Watertown. I've only scanned a few at this time and so attach a sample.
If
you have any information about the families of James or Patrick
Brennan I would greatly appreciate your help.
sincerely Christine Preto

Please help
me locate where Chauncey H. Purple is buried. We know
he died in Watertwown in 1879. He was the assistant
state treasurer from 1858 for about 8 years. An Obit exists for him (on order)
and he had his bio written up in two books. I cannot find him listed in the
death index for WI, but he did die there. Would this cert. be kept at the local
level, and not in the state archives? He died
His
daughter, Clarrisa Purple, was born in 1853 in
Waukesha. She also is not in the index. Maybe the birth cert would be at the
local level?

Looking for info, on my greatgreatgrandparents,

They were Johan Friedrich SEEFELDT, and Henriette HACKBARTH
SEEFELDT. Johan used the name Friedrich. They immigrated to U.S. in
1857 and settled in Hustisford, Dodge County, WI.
They brought with them 5 of their 6 children. August,
Friedrich, Henriette, Wilhelmine,
and Johanna. Their eldest child, Herman came over we believe later
with his family. They emmigrated
from around Naugard, Pommern
area. We are in particular, looking for Wilhelmine
and Henriette. Johanna married Charles WESTPHAL in Milwaukee in 1867, that is my direct line.Johanna's elder sisters may have married a BRUNNER and a MERKEL, but we
