Alicia,

Here is some more information about your family:

1900 Census
Helvetia Township, Madison County, Illinois

Household 92
Koch, Christian – Head, M, W, born Sep 1868, age 31, Married 4 years, born IL, Father born Switzerland, Mother born Germany
Koch, Mary – Wife, F, W, born Nov 1893, age 26, Married 4 years, Mother of 2 children both living, born IL, Father born Germany, Mother born Germany
Koch, Walter – Son, M, W, born Oct 1896, age 3, born IL, Father born IL, Mother born IL
Koch, Orville – Son, M, W, born Sep 1898, age 1, born IL, Father born IL, Mother born IL

1910 Census
Helvetia Township, Madison County, Illinois

Household 162
Koch, Christian – Head, age 40, Married 14 years
Koch, Mary – Wife, age 35, Married 14 years, Mother of 2 children both living
Koch, Walter – Son, age 12
Koch, Orville – Son, age 11
(Birthplace and parents’ birthplaces are same as the 1900 census)

1920 Census
Helvetia Township, Madison County, Illinois

Household 19
Koch, Christian – Head, age 51
Koch, Mary – Wife, age 47
Koch, Walter – Son, age 22
Koch, Orville – Son, age 21
Koch, Clarence – Son, age 8? (difficult to read)

I don’t have access to the 1930 census from home. When did Walter marry Bernice? If it was after 1930, there’s a good chance Walter and his first wife will be listed on it. If someone else can’t pull up the details, I’d be happy to take a look next time I visit my library.

If you can get to a library and view these, I’d highly recommend it. There are a lot of Koch families enumerated. You can probably trace many of your direct line’s siblings, cousins, etc. using these documents.

Good luck!
