Proposed Change: Ludwig Ottenheimer (I62223) Tree: Südpfalz / Southern Palatinate Link: http://www.birkenhoerdt.net/getperson.php?personID=I62223&tree=Suedpfalz Description: I located a very likely marriage record for Louis and Franz. (called Fanny). Her last name is off…could be the writing and transcriber just couldn't tell. Tennessee marriages: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/VN62-FVH At first, I could not find him in the census records, but I did find four death records for children of Louis and Fanny. Seems that they were in Arkansas for awhile, since three children were born there. They did wind up in Tennessee, later on. Death of Jeannette: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NSN3-1RJ I could not locate her in any census records with a husband, but I did find one who fits, living with a widowed daughter in 1930: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/SP7W-1R8 Death of Celia: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NSFP-3KM Death of Celia's husband: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NSC6-72V Death of Celia and Felix' son: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NQ7B-CH5 1900 census of Celia and Felix: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MSZW-1TW 1920 census shows more children, along with daughter, Dora married and her husband: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MNPJ-SNJ Death of Ella: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/N9LK-KJT 1900 census of Ella and husband, Charles: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MSZY-X5J 1910 shows more kids (looks like Fannie in this census is Lena in 1900): https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MGF6-GZC Using a search of the children's names, I found the family in the 1870 census. However, it would appear that Fanny had died and Louis remarried to a Lavinia (or it looks that way……no relationships appear in that census). 1870: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MD8Q-TBV Death of daughter, Dora: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NS42-GFT Death of Dora's husband: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NS44-BHL Dora and Jacob were located in the 1900 census, with children, her brother and his brother: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MSZW-5BL VA marriage of son, Elias: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/X5BK-9J2 Death of son, Leo: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NS2B-MJC Death of son, Fred: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NSCK-KPK claire rassman claire rassman [S705] Tennessee, State Marriages, 1780 - 2002, (www.ancestry.com).
