Query Text: I would like to get in touch with any Hildebradt who lived in Marshall County, Kansas. Three brothers came from Germany in the mid 1850's and settled in the county. One of these was August Hildebrandt who married Julianna Putzke in 1861 or 1862 who had recently come from Germany, near the Polish border. She had a brother Henry who had moved to the area a few years before her. August and Julianna lived south west of Home, KS about 1 or 2 miles. In 1868 August built a limestone house that still stands today. In 1869 he was accidently shot with his own gun and died three days later. They had the following children: Fredrick, Matilda, Pauline, Anna, and Rosena. Matilda died of a childhood disease and was buried near the stone house; her father was later buried near her. A river is to the south of the homestead and their graves are probably between the river and the stone house.

Query Text: I am searching for the parents of my great grandfather or any information on his family.
Earl MARTIN was born in 1878 in Kansas. His parents are unknown and the actual place of birth is unknown. I highly suspect Marshall County and here is why.
Earl MARTIN was born in 1878 and by late June 1879 he was in Indianapolis, IN at his aunts house and they were raising him. It is well known in the family that his mother was killed in May 1879 in Kansas and his father couldn't raise an infant on his own so he had the child sent to his sisters house. After years of trying to figure out what went on I found out about the Irving tornado in May of 1879 and suspect that there were some Martin's there and possibly one that lost his wife and had to send his child away.
Anyone with information please contact me it would be greatly appreciated.

Query Text: Has the Vermillion Cemetery been transcribed and put on line? My mother was Luella Woodward and I am interested in names and dates of relatives buried there for my genealogical research. I clicked the link on the Marshall County page and got flipped off to Yahoo!, in which I am not interested. I thank you for any assistance. Boyd Hughes..
