Hi Birgit,
I haven't worked on this side of my family for quite a while, but some of what I remember is:
Heinrich Kappesser, born 1795 in Engelstadt married Eva Maria Epplemann Fauth (a widow)
and had 10 or 11 children.Them came to Ohio in 1844 and then to Illinois in the mid 1850's.A son, Christopher, born in 1831, was my great grandfather.He married Eliza Catherine Blass (1854?) and had 6 children.My grandfather was Levi Simon Kapser, 1865-1964
