Dear Santa,
I would love to find more information on my allusive greatgrandfather
Michael REEB who was born in 1820 in Alsace (Germany). He came to the US in
1850 and by 1859 he had settled in Darrtown, Milford Twp Butler COunty. He
was a tailor and a merchant and later a farmer. He married in 1859 Catherine
Becker who died in 1861. She is supposedly buried along with their son
Franklin in the Darrtown Cemetary. Michael Reeb then married Matilda Suese
Lawrenz Braasch ,a widow with a son Henry in 1878. ???? Michael and Matilda
had a son Benno Edward Reeb who was born Dec.23,1878/79. IN 1878 a farm of
80 acres was bought by Michael and Matilda. Michael died in 1904 ( Oct 30
or Dec.21)

What I wish for is that I can find any information on Michael. I can find no
obituary records,burial etc.
