In regards to your posting on the Schiwal listing. I am one of the Schiwals in Utah. My Dad is the sixth child of Joseph Schiwal and Kathrine Huth. I suppose he is the seventh, the second {poss] Named Carl died as a young child, poss 2yrs. The childrens names are Joseph, Anton, [Karl], Katie, [Kathrine] Mike, Karl[a second Karl],John [my Dad], Paul, Frank [Francis], Rose [Roselee], Joanne. My Dad will be 81, in April, and is the oldest surviving Sybling.
I would love any information Or photos you would like to share. My dad remembers stories, but short on details. I do know both his parents immigrated to the states seperately. Joseph Born: 4 Mar 1891, being anywhere from 8 to 13yrs.He Died: Mar 1973.Kathrine maybe 5yrs. Grandma Died: 198990. I actually drove back to ND with my Dad for her funeral in Lefor, and a cousins wedding a week later.For the record ND Weddings are so much more fun then any Ut Wedding I have attended.
This is the LIMIT of my Schiwal knowledge. My Grandmothers family, the HUTH's was also good sized. Thank you for any help you can give me. I just started my research.
