Nagel/ Nageli
Hi, I was tring to find any information on Nagel Family from Baveria, Germany. I know that Baviera is like USA is on States. The Nagel family came over to USA around 1825-1834. The husband died on the way or shoetly after. The wife married name was Katherine Magaretta Nagel. She was born around 1790. Catherine Margaretta (Etha), daughter, was Born around 1813-1815. More than likely had more children. They lived in Gibson, Dubois, Vanderburgh county, IN - when they first came.Later they moved to Henderson, Hopkins county, KY.Margetta (daughter) married Charles Schimmel in 1838-1840. Catherine, Mother passedaway in 1860-1870's. The daugheter died 1880-1900. Daughter's childrens' names: Louis,Charles (Both had middle name William), Katherine(1st daughter), Mary Caroline, John Peter, Lucy Emma. May had named children after her father or family. Was told by members of the family that John Peter Schimmel,Daughter's son, went to Baviera for the family, to collect an Inheritance in late 1800 early 1900. If anyone has information, I would appreciate it. Nobody in the Schimmel family has any information on The Nagel or Charles Schimmel(1809-1858).
Thank you, Debbie
