    I'm looking for anyone who might have information on th Klemm family, What I do know is my grandparents arrived at Ellis Island on the United American Lines on a ship called the Hansa which departed from Hamberg on 9 nov.1922. They
    went to Saginaw, MI to live with my grandfathers sister and her family (Adam & Anna Klemm Clauss). Christian died in 1929 and my grandmother (Amolia Felsing-Klemm remarried a
    Peter Dittenber in 1943 and lived in AuGres, MI until they
    died. What I would really like to know is did any of my grandparents siblings ever come to the US. The information I have is as follows: Grandfather Christians parents
    were George Klemm and Barbara Kries, they had 5 other children the names I have are George Jr, Henry,John, Anna
    and a daughter that I know only as Mrs Redd Kukkus.
    Grandmother Amolia Felsing Klemm-Dittenber's parent were
    John or Phillip Felsing and Louise Kross, they had 4 other
    children the names I have are John Phillip, Phillip,
    Catherine Margaret, and Elizabeth. My Aunt Molly wrote in a letter that her mother said she had cousins in CA and
    I have a copy of a letter from a from a Phillip Weigundt
    living in Fresno CA dated 1924 but it's in German and I can't translate it. If anyone has any ideas on where to look,please let me know. Thanks Deb

  1. 8.  Gottfried August Klemm was born in 1762 (son of Johann Heinrich Klemm and Rachel Sophia Unknown); died in 1806 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia.

    Other Events:

    • Name: August Klemm
    • Reference Number: 2152
    • Birth: 1761
    • Arrival: 1790, Kukkus, Samara, Russia
    • Residence: 1798, Kukkus, Samara, Russia; HH26

    Notes:

    We have a contradiction here. As per the 1798 Kukkus census, 3 yr old Barbara was the child of a deceased wife, not of the current wife. As per the 1798 Laub movement chart Maria Magdalena Friedrich of Laub married August Klemm of Kukkus in 1793. Obviously, one of the records is incorrect. Was Barbara older than 3, is the marriage date wrong or is the 'child of deceased wife' note incorrect?

    1798 Census notes he is from Jost

    Gottfried married Maria Magdalena Friedrich in 1793 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia. Maria (daughter of Herman Friedrich) was born in 1777. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Maria Magdalena Friedrich was born in 1777 (daughter of Herman Friedrich).

    Other Events:

    • Name: Magdalena Klemm
    • Reference Number: 2153
    • Arrival: 1793, Kukkus, Samara, Russia
    • Residence: 1798, Kukkus, Samara, Russia; HH26

    1798 census notes she is from Laub

    Birth:
    from Laub

    Children:
    1. Katharina Sophia Klemm was born in 1797.
    2. 4. Christian Klemm was born in 1808 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia.

  3. 13.  Katharina Sophia Kries was born about 1795; died before 1834 in perhaps bef. 1826.

    Other Events:

    • Name: Katharina Sophia Unknown
    • Reference Number: 3813

    Notes:

    Surname is implied by determining her sons surname from his entry in the 1850 census. On the 1834 census her son is listed only as Georg Adam, the illegitimate son of Johann Friedrich Habermann's deceased wife, Sophia. Her surname is not given. The 1850 census lists his name as Georg Adam Kriess. The 1857 census lists it as Georg Adam K???. The illegitimacy can also imply that the 3 children Haberman had prior to 1822 were from an unknown deceased first wife and then he remarried, after 1822, a woman with an illegitimate child.

    Perhaps died by 1826 with no children from Habermann - See notes under Johann Friedrich Habermann.

    Birth:
    based on spouse's age

    Died:
    1834 census says deceased. no date
