My 2nd great grandfather on my mom’s side, Anton Fuhrmann, came to America from Germany in about 1845. Anton and his wife, Maria Katherine Michels settled in Marshfield Twp., Fond du Lac Co., WI, where they farmed. They had ten children together. Their oldest daughter, Elizabeth, married John Hau in 1900.

She’s having a problem finding one, Frank Gipp now. Would any of your readers happen to have a link or suggestion as to where else to look for him. She’s tried EVERYTHING so far and has come up empty.
