I recently found that my GGgrandmother was Wilhelmina Schwictenberg from Prussia. She married Michael Bober also from Prussia. Unk when they were married. Est. years of birth are: Michael Bober ca. 1833 and Wilhelmina Schwictenberg ca. 1840. 1880 Census and Chicago Voter Registration records indicate arrival in U.S. ca. 1865 or later. Known children of Michael and Wilhelmina were: Elizabeth, my Ggrandmother, born Prussia ca. 1859; August, born in Prussia ca. 1865; Anton, born Chicago ca. 1870; Anna, born Chicago ca. 1874; Joseph, born Chicago ca. 1877; and Frank, born Chicago ca. 1878. Michael's siser, Josephine Bober lived with the family also. If interested, please contact me at yacolttom@centurytel.net Thanks and Best Regards, Tom Schenk
