Subject: [GV] Seifert, Schwindt, Peppler and Rexius Families

I just subscribed to the list today. I have only recently began researching
my German Russian family. I do not know where to look next and was hoping
someone would be able to help or perhaps someone may know of these families.
Here is what I was able to figure out so far.

Schwindt Family:
Reinhardt or Fred and Katherine Schwindt (I have no information on them)
Children:
1) Katherine A. Schwindt
Born: March 17, 1881 in ??? (I have a document that says she was born in
Allenbach, Russia, but I have not been able to find this town. Has anyone
heard of it?
Died: January 05, 1966 in Saint Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota
Married: Conrad Seifert on ??? in Russia

2) Lydia Schwindt
Born: January 29, 1890 in Kraft, Kamenka Canton, Saratov Province, Russia
Died: July 04, 1971 in Scottsbluff, Scotts Bluff County, Nebraska
Married: Friedrich Rexius on September 04, 1909 in Kraft, Kamenka Canton,
Saratov Province, Russia
They had 8 children.
Friedrich left Russia first in January 1913 and was joined later that year
in July by his wife and son. They first settled in Sugar City, CO and then
in Scotts Bluff, NE.

3) Reinhardt Schwindt
I know nothing about him except that him emigrated to the US maybe to
Nebraska.

There are at least two more girls and two more brothers that I don't even
know their names.

Seifert Family:
George and Anna Seifert (I do not know anything about them)
Children:
1) John Peter Seifert
Born: July 14, 1878 in Allenbach, Russia
Died: July 21, 1942 in Saint Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota
Married: Anna Elizabeth Peppler on ??? in Russia
Anna Elizabeth Peppler
Born: July 02, 1885 in Allenbach, Russia
Died: March 22, 1947 in Saint Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota
They had 8 or 9 children.

2) Conrad Seifert
Born: January 08, 1885 in Allenbach, Russia
Died: May 11, 1950 in Saint Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota
Married: Katherine A. Schwindt on ??? in Russia
Katherine A. Schwindt
Born: March 17, 1881 in Allenbach, Russia
Died: January 05, 1966 in Saint Paul, Ramsey County, Minnesota
They had 11 children.

I am sure they are more children, but these are the only two I have found so
far. Both John Peter and Conrad Seifert immigrated with their families to
the US, first to Fort Collins, CO (1906-1910), then to Milwaukee, WI
(1910-1912), then to Dakota County, MN (1912-1927), and then finally to St.
Paul, MN (1927 to present).

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
