My aunt did the same when my grandfather passed. She got confused in her grief so I do understand. I just thought you all would like to know so maybe a correction could be made. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kay Reeves To: germans-stlouis@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, 22 January, 2009 3:54 AM Subject: Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] My response to your comments and suggestions I just finished my latest batch and will be e-mailing to the project coordinator today.

Dear Cindy, Try this link for deaths from 1910-1957. It is the Missouri Digital Heritage website- lots of interesting information.

4. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Riot 5th and Walnut, May 1861 [1]
A place to start and a book which I have found valuable is a publication by the Missouri Historical Society Press entitled "The Civil War in St. Louis - A Guided Tour" by William C. Winter for the Civil War Round Table of St. Louis. Chapter 3 is entitled, "The Camp Jackson Affair". If you live close enough to the Missouri Historical Society Library in St. Louis located on a street which borders the West side of Forest Park you will locate many books about the skirmish. There are also several people yo

6. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Port of New Orleans [1]
Connie; After landing in New Orleans they took a steamship up the Mississippi to St. Louis. This trip took as long as a week. I thought the ship records were at the University in New Orleans. I know that some ship records were lost but that was from about 1839-1850. I was told they burned the records fearing the cholorea epidemic was spread this way.

7. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Port of New Orleans [1]
Ship's records are available at the large library in New Orleans and at the National Archives. I found our German ancestors on a ship's list there. The librarian was a big help. She had an index which we used to find the correct microfilm.
8. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Any medical historians out there? [1]
Interesting, isn't it, what falls out when we start shaking the branches of the family tree? I found my maternal grandfather in the 1880 census records along with his father, mother and two older sisters. In checking further on his father, I actually found the record of his arrival in America in 1857 at the tender age of 17. In the 1860 census records, he was working for a baker in New Haven, Connecticutt bakery. The next I saw of him was his Civil War service - he had signed up for the 6th Connecticutt vol

Thank you, Kay, for all the work you and others have done. It is a blessing what has been done on the SOS website. Maybe in the near future marraiges and or "early" death records might be added. I know it is hit and miss but would be a bit helpful. jeff -----Original Message----- From: Kay Reeves To: germans-stlouis@rootsweb.com Sent: Sun, 18 Jan 2009 7:09 pm Subject: Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Missouri Death Records I have helped do some of theB volunteer transcription work for the Mis
11. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Missouri Death Records [1]
Jeff, It does take some time, but I started participating when I was still working full time and caring for my chronically ill husband (who has since passed away). There was always 15-20 minutes here or there - before work, while cooking dinner, etc. Part of the effort was selfishness. I wanted to be able to see what happened to the people populating the branches of my family tree. The death certificates sometimes (although not always) have names of the deceased parents leading to a prior generation and a
12. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Missouri Death Records [1]
Kay I have thought of volunteering on some things like you do but time is always a factor. I have found it hard to trace death records before the 1910 mandate. I have a family member death that occured 1906, has an obit in Post (not sure how I found it) has a listing somewhere online but when you go and search for it it isn't there. Just one of the headaches one gets while having fun. The SOS death listing online is one of the best things ever!!!! Wish other states did it. Jeff -----Original Message--

14. [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Port of New Orleans- Mississippi steamboat records. [1]
Hi, Karen Does the New Orleans library have records of the steamships that sailed up the Mississippi to St Louis? Many of us would love to find these records if they exist, but I have been told that they do not. Most libraries have the NARA microfilm for the passenger ships that sailed the oceans. It is always a thrill to find your ancestor's ship. It would be a real thrill to learn the name of the steamship that brought him to St. Louis.

15. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Port of New Orleans [1]
Several of my ancestors arrived via New Orleans then took ship us the Mississippi to St. Louis. I have one brief first hand account. "We sailed from Bremen in April 1866 and arrived in New Orleans, it took us 42 days. We then traveled to St. Louis by steamboat and there we hired a hack to take us to Belleville. From Belleville, Fritz Schrader and I walked to Red Bud where my brother was living. There I found work with Mr. Burgmeister who I worked for about a year." Joel http://www.rafert.org/ho

19. Re: [GERMANS-STLOUIS] Missouri Death Records [1]
I have helped do some of the volunteer transcription work for the Missouri State Archives death certificate project. We have completed the transcription for 1910-1957, and those interested should be able to link to the digitized copies of the certificates. We are currently in process of transcribing 1958 so that it can be added to the collection. They do have some on line information for pre-1910 deaths, but it is incomplete. For 1834 up to 1910, Ancestry probably has more accessible information at the mo

It seems inevitable that some records are missing. I have an obit, a church and cemetery record for a 1930 death in Missouri, but for some reason it is not recorded in the archives. And although an index is a wonderful help, there is always the possibility of someone being missed. LaVerne,
21. [GERMANS-STLOUIS] RE Port of New Orleans [1]
Four years after the invention of the steamboat by Robert Fulton, the side-wheeler New Orleans steamed down the Ohio River to the Mississippi  arriving at the exact moment of the New Madrid Earthquake of 1811! For days, the boat was tossed in a maelstrom of falling trees, geysers and rushing channels. Finally at Natchez, Mississippi, the river calmed and the New Orleans survived its maiden voyage. The speed of steam travel soon appealed to travelers. In 1817, it took 25 days to go upriver by steamboat, but

I find most of my death records for Missouri 1910-1954 on the MO State web sight. It gives a complete copy of death cert. I love it and it's been up dated so don't have to request as many as before.

He he. Here is what I think. She may have had cancer before she arrived and may have been seeking treatment here in the US however if she wasn't naturalized yet she may not have been eligable for treatment. In that case, if she married right away (the matchmaker) she would probably have a much better chance of g

Although considered a fine surgeon, Joseph Nash McDowell was *very* eccentric. From: Haunted St. Louis, Troy Taylor, 2002 "While well known for being generous in his treatment of the poor and the sick, he was also known for his hatred of immigrants, colored people and Catholics. He would lecture on those subjects at street corners to anyone who would listen. McDowell made a habit of wearing a breastplate of armor, believing that his enemies might try and kill him at any time." I doubt that he would h
