We have something of a mystery regarding our Schuster ancestors here in St Charles County, right on the border with Warren County.
In 1842, a Schuster family came from Mettingen, Neubauer, west Falische. Frederich Wilheml, his wife Anna Maria Elisabeth (Hoffmeier), their children Johann Heinrich (1817), Bernard (1825), Heinrich (1828), M Louise (1833), and Heinrich W (1839).
The eldest son, Johann Heinrich settled on the Schuster homeplace in St Charles County, right onthe border with Warren County, adjacent to what is now Joerling Road. But we have no idea where his parents and siblings settled, and we assume they may have settled somewhere across the county line in Warren County. We suspect this because the parents were present at the Femme Osage church for the baptism of Heinrich's some Wm Frederich Schuster in 1854. So they weren't far away, and we know they did not live in St Charles County. And from all that I could find out, Warren County does not have the kind of record keeping that St Charles County does from that period. The church at Femme Osage has great records, and it appears that the parents and siblings did not attend there regularly, but only showed up at Wm Frederich's baptism.
If anyone with Schuster relatives in Warren County has a clue on our family, I would appreciate hearing from you.
