Hello, I am searching for Michael Haas, He was born in Marshall MN. The only other information I have is he had a brother by the name of Richard Haas.

I believe Michael was born sometime around 1950 + or - 5 years.

If this person sounds familiar at all could you please e-mail me? Thank you

Hi all,
Read with much interest your account of your line of Baldwins. My 4th great-grandfather, Allen Baldwin (1786?-1861) migrated from here (Rappahannock Co., VA) about 1835 and moved to Putnam County. He was father of seven children by his second wife, Melinda Wilson (1794-1901). I descend from Allen by son of his first wife. That son's name was Thomas William Baldwin (1820-8 May 1888) a private in CSA. In my research I found that Allen and Melinda's son John A.Baldwin who married Mary Gallespie had a son, John Baldwin who moved to Lawrence County, now West Virginia. This John married Cloe Tull and they had nine children. I had the privelidge to meet the last surviving daughter, Effie Baldwin, then at Purley's nursing home in Cold Point back in 1992.
I've also met many members of the descendants of John & Cloe in the Kitts Hill and Proctorville areas, we correspond with each other a couple of times a year.
I've always wondered if my Baldwins were related to yours, since some of yours were in the same area.
Enjoyed reading your Baldwin History. Thanks,
Wayne F. Baldwin

My great-grandmother was named Gelbhaus. I have no information about my genealogy. But I have reason to believe that I am related to the German Rabbi Sigmund Gelbhaus, who lived in Europe i the late 1800s. In one of his books, he wrote a dedication to his uncle Carl Haas (in Munich), whom I believe may have been a book dealer and possibly also a translator. If anyone has any info about Carl or his descendants, or knows of their connection to the Gelbhauses, I'd love to hear.

I would like any information that Matt Haas may have about his great grandfather's family. My husband's uncle was Calvin Haas and his grandfather was Christian Mathias Haas.

Thanks,
D. Haas

I'am the great granddaughter of William John Deck the brother of Theresa Elizabeth Deck and was googling names and it brought me to your web site. I really liked all the photos seeing how I only have a few myself .

I am a distant cousin of Scott Lucus, related thru the Seitz(Scites)Family. It was my understanding that you have been working with some of the cousins "Brady" Can you share anything?
Lula Keyser Brady and Emily Keyser Brady were my grandmother Nancy Anthelia Cummings, Keyser's sisters and I knew all of their children. and some history but I would like to have more information. There is very few of them left.

Thanks Pete for all your help with my site. I appreciate all that you have done and continue to do to preserve our heritage.

I just ran across your site. I have no idea if my family is related to your Haas family. My father was Bernard William Haas of Omaha, Nebraska. My mother was Jane Osborn Haas, my grandfather was Frederick Haas also of Omaha and my grandmother was Mary Haas. There are other Haas relatives in Omaha. I was born in Chicago, but all other Haas relatives stayed in Omaha. I'll have to look up what little information I have to see if I may have a connection with your Haas family.

Thanks Pete for this wonderful website and your assistance.

Very impressive. I still can't get over how this site has grown through the years.

We all owe you a big thanks for preserving our heritage.

Been awhile since looking for family members..Grandfather Fred Lawson and Grandmother Ida May Baldwin Lawson from Ironton Ohio...many aunts and uncles where brought up in Ironton..they lived on Edna St..anyone knew them and have info???

I am willing to complete the role of the Schwitzner descendants, since there are some erratic data about Karl Johann Friedrich Schwitzner end Katharina Kern (my grandparents)in Cloppenburg)Oldenburg.

Sara Mae Haas was a fine lady, aged approx. 85 years, and my mother-in-law. She passed away 6/2000. Her father was William Haas of Philadelphia, Pa., mother was Margaret Marsdon-Haas, sisters - Alice Haas-Starkey, and Helen Haas-Reynolds. Alice passed away 3/2004, Helen approx. 1970's. Margaret & Wm. Haas had more children but they died during the enormous flu epidemic of 1918. The memory of this never left Sara and colored her thinking about life expectancy. Her father died unexpectedly when she was sixteen; a Sunday afternoon on her bicycle when a neighbor called out the news to her. The family moved from a Victorian type country house on the outskirts of Philadelphia to a smaller house in the N.E. section of the city (Philadelphia). Alice and Sara became members of a church choir and it provided a social life and later they met and married their future husbands.
Can anyone add to this rememberance and for all the Haas families tuned in, are there any stories they would like to communicate.

Blue passed away in his sleep this morning. He Follows his older brother Mave. Blue walked to the beat of a different drummer. He will be missed.

Its been a long time since I have been on your website. Would love to hear from Ray Haas if he is still available.
I am a decendent of Nancy J. Crays who married a Tewell.

Your Peter Haas stayed with the brother of my great, great Grandfather Andrew Laubner. His brother, Leonard, who Peter stayed with is listed as a member of the Leonard Laubner household on the 1860 census. Let me know if you have anything on Leonard or Andrew Laubner in your records. Thanks.

I am looking to connect with anyone with the last name Googh.

My father was William L. Haas, Jr., and it's been a long time since I've visited this website. I love the new look and there is a ton of information....great!
