Marie Amstutz Kansas
Looking for gr-grandmother, Marie (or Mary) Amstutz, born on 01/23/1872.Census records list her as immigrating from Switzerland around 1892, mother's language French, father's language German.She married Karl Keiser in 1898 in Wichita.They owned a farm north of Wichita, in direction of Newton or Halstead, KS.There are a lot of mennonites that are Amstutz, particularly in the area where she and Karl farmed.
Would like to find an Amstutz with Marie as relative to find out where she was born in Switzerland and who her parents were.
Her children were Carl, Aline, Bernard, Julius (Jude), and Frederick (Fred or Fritz) Keiser.All were born in Kansas except for Frederick who was evidently born on a visit back to Switizerland as he is listed on the ship's manifest as having been born in Switzerland (have a copy of the manifest and boarding passes from Bremen).Appreciate any info.
