KLUDT Family Tree - Johann Kludt & Maria Kosten

Germany, Lutheran Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, 1519-1969
My "brick wall" is in Germany with my paternal fourth great grandparents, Johann Kludt and Maria Kosten.  I don't have birth, death or marriage dates.  However, I do have the names of at least 3 children from researching the church records filmed by the LDS church.

1.  Johann Carl Joachim Kludt was born 1 Nov 1792 in 
Mecklenburg-Schwerin 1819 Census
Friedrichsruhe, Mecklenburg, Germany.  He died 11 Oct 1861 in Fruenmark, Mecklenburg, Germany.  He married Carolina Christina Maria Pflughaupt, daughter of Andreas Hans August Pflughaupt and Anna Sophia Dorothea Oldach, on 8 Dec 1815 in Friedrichsruhe, Mecklenburg, Germany.  They had at least 7 children.


  • Dorothea Elizabeth Christina Johanna Kludt, born 19 Oct 1817 in Friedrichsruhe, Mecklenburg, Germany.  She married Johann Christian August Fromm, son of Johann Jacob Fromm, on 28 Aug 1846 in Frauenmark, Parchim, Mecklenburg, Germany.  They had at least 3 children:

    • Johann Ludwig Carl Andreas Fromm, born 27 Jan 1847.  Believe to have been born in Germany.  
    • Caroline Sophia Christina Fromm, born 28 Oct 1848 in Germany.  Died 30 Mar 1849 in Fruenmark, Parchim, Mecklenburg, Germany.
    • Carl Andreas Friedrich Christoph Fromm, born 27 Mar 1850 in Germany.  Married Catherine Werle, daughter of Jacob Werle and Margaret Smith, 24 May 1880 in Plymouth, Cerro Gordo, Iowa.  At least 3 children were born.
      • Anna Rosalina Fromm, born 26 Jun 1890 in Plymouth, Cerro Gordo, Iowa.  She died 16 Feb 1971 in Eureka, Humboldt, California.  She married Glenn Woolliscroft Edgar, son of John S Edgar & Elizabeth Walliscroft, on 21 Feb 1910 in Mason City, Cerro Gordo, Iowa.  They had at least 9 children.
        • Leo Roy Edgar, born c1911 in Iowa
        • Earl Elliott Edgar, born c1912 in Iowa
        • Cleo Arthur Edgar, born 16 Sept 1913 in Rock Falls, Cerro Gordo, Iowa
        • John S Edgar, born c1916 in Iowa

      • John Fromm, born Sept 1894 in Iowa.
      • Edward Fromm, born Aug 1899 in Iowa.
            Some interesting notes for Dorothea and her family:  It appears the family emigrated to America.  There are Wisconsin Census Records from 1860 through 1900.  There is some confusion as to whether the daughter listed above died at a young age or not.  I have a record indicating that she died in 1852.  There is also mention that a child died at sea.  She is listed on the 1860 Wisconsin Census but not on the 1870 Wisconsin Census.  The 1900 census indicates there was a total of 8 children with 7 living.  It also indicates that they immigrated in 1850.

Ulerich family - Part 1 Henry Ulerich & his children

This is an update to an earlier blog posting.  I've learned more about the family and have pictures as well as documents.  The   Ulerich family came from Germany.  As of today, I do not have the immigrant ancestor.  But I do know that they lived in Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Washington State.  Ulerich was my mother-in-law's maiden name.  Bolded, underlined names are her direct line.  Majority of the information below is from Federal Census records.

The Ulerich name has several spellings (depending on the census taker, etc).  Spelling variations include Ullerich, Ulrich, Ulerick, Ulerich, Allerich, etc.

I was going to do this as one entry but have decided to split it up.

Henry Ulerich was born 16 Oct 1828 in Pennsylvania.  He married Caroline Fry and they had 10 children per Census records.  Henry passed away 30 Dec 1914 in Cass County, Indiana.

  1. John Daniel Ulerich, born Oct 1851 in Pennsylvania (more on a later blog entry)
  2. George Ulerich, born 18 Nov 1853 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.  He died 7 July 1937 in Logansport, Cass County,  Indiana.  He married Margaret Metsker on 13 Feb 1885 in Cass County, Indiana.  They had 2 children.

In 1870, Henry & his family lived in Logansport, Clay Township, Cass County, Indiana.  He was a farmer.  His mother was foreign born.  He cannot read or write.  John was a plasterer.  There is an Ann D. Ulerich living with the family, age 84, and born in Baden and cannot write.  Assumption is that this is Henry's mother.

In 1880, Henry was in Bethlehem Township, Cass County, Indiana.  He is still a farmer and still cannot read or write.  Both parents are listed as being born in Germany.  Eva is the oldest still living at home and has been unemployed for 6 months.  Benjamin has been unemployed for 3 months.  Living next door to him (in 1880) is his son, Henry.  Henry's wife is Martha (age 19, born in Indiana).  Also living with him is his daughter, Lily M (age 1, born in Indiana),  Elizabeth Stringer (age 50, widowed, born in Indiana - I assume this may be Martha's mother), her son, Joseph B (age 15, born in Indiana) and her daughter, Nancy J (age 13, born in Indiana).  Henry is listed as a farm laborer.



In 1900, Henry lived with a second wife, Elizabeth, in Bethlehem Township, Cass County, Indiana.  He's listed as a farmer.  Cannot read or write.

In 1910, Henry lived alone in Bethlehem Township, Cass County, Indiana.  Evidently, by this time he can read and write.
