Marriages with TWIEHAUS family (copy)
Looking for descendants of Henry William TWIEHAUS (b. 1820 Prussia; d. 1905 Moniteau Co.) and Maria Engel STRATMANN (b. 1826 Hanover; d. 1880 Moniteau Co.), md. 1846 in St. Louis, MO. Their children were: Wilhelmine (abt 1848; md. August SEYFFERT); John Henry (1849; md. Maria Catharina SCHULTE 1869 St. Louis and later Elizabeth ____); Louis G. (1852; md. Katie ____); Emma Mary (1855; md. Herman SEYFFERT); and Eliza (abt 1858). Henry William Twiehaus seems to have emigrated from Westphalia in 1837. His sons' children largely returned to St. Louis from central Missouri. A relationship between this family and the St. Charles Co. family of the same surname is possible -- but unknown to me at this time. Nevertheless, John Adam STRATMANN, brother of Maria Engel TWIEHAUS, is said to have been born in 1841 in Femme Osage, St. Chas. Co. Their father reportedly "died in a cholera epidemic in 1848."
