Ingwersen-Rohwedder-Peters
I am trying to get more information about the Ingwersens that some of my ancestors married.They were located in Illinois and Iowa, I believe.
I have a letter written in 1972 that says:"Dad (Johann Peters) was a cabinet maker by trade and landed in Chicago (from Germany) about the time of the great fire in 1871, so he had an abundance of work.Later the Peters and the Rohwedder families seemed to gravitateto Clinton and Wyoming counties (Iowa); and as you are undoubtedly aware three Rohwedder girls, sisters of your father, married three of the five INGWERSEN brothers who were engaged in the livestock commission business in Chicago as time went on."
Can anyone connect to these names?
