Subject: Question and Request: GASSER/GESER
Watertown Historical
Society
Watertown / Jefferson
County / Wisconsin
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am looking for a member
of my family: Benedict Geser
(born 1819 in southern Germany, former kingdom of wuerttemberg)
emigrated between 1851 an 1854 (assumably) into the
U.S. If you spell the surname Geser in English as it is pronounce in German, the result
would be GASSER.
By doing some internet
research I found a B. Gasser 1885 living in Watertown,WI who was listed as veteran of the Company H, 48th Infantry
Regiment (Civil War 1861-64)
Till 1863 there is a
Benedict GESER (also written as GEESER) to find in Milwaukee as working and
living and assumably running a german
boarding house named Kossuth House at East Water
Street.
Do you have any holdings
who can deliver more datas about this person and do
you see a chance to find somethin about him? Please
tell me also your fees or costs for doing a research on behalf on my request.
Any help and assist would
be greatly appreciated.
Greetings from Germany

Dear

Our group, the Wisconsin Aviation Hall of

native who flew in France, came home and continued to fly in Waukesha until
approx WWII. Then he moved to Jefferson County where I presume he farmed since
he was head of the county Dairy Herd Improvement Assoc for 17 years. He died in 1975, I presume in Jefferson cty. We plan to induct Williams into our WI Aviation Hall
of Fame and would like to contact family members. Can you help us find
them? If nothing else, an obituary would
help. Thanks for your help and check our website at www.aviationhalloffamewisconsin.com

My

during the 1840s, and according to my family records, all four of his
children
were born there, before the family moved to Iowa and subsequently to
California.
His wife was Fanny Lucas, b. CT or VT, 1812.
I don't find
Waterloo

Are
there any local sources that might have information about the family,

birth of children, land ownership, etc.?
The Walkers moved around
quite a

they seem
to have spent about 10 years there. John
Walker led a wagon train

St. Louis to Quincy, CA in 1862, and I have an account of the trip

Subject: Query for Porter
I am looking for
information on Albert Porter and his ancestors. In the 1900 census of Lake
Mills, Jefferson County, Wisconsin, Albert was listed as:
Albert Porter b. Jan. 1842 or 43 in Maine (head of household)
Jennie K. (Keyes) b. Aug.
1847 in Wisconsin (wife)
Grace M. b. March 1878 in
Illinois (dtr)
Julius C. b. Nov. 1883 in
Illinois (son)
Marcia S. b. Dec. 1887 in
Wisconsin (dtr)
I am showing Albert's
parents were born in ME and he married Jennie A. Keyes
in or around 1872. I believe Albert's middle name was Henry, but not sure. I have
no info on his parents.
Any help would be
appreciated. Thanks much, Melissa Bowersock
