11715	They Came To Missouri Descendants of Henry Childers of Virginia and Kentucky Robert Childers, Jr. and his nephew, William Pryor Childers, were probably the first of that name to settle in Scotland County, Missouri. In Adams County, IL. 20 August 1834, Robert Childers made an affidavit for Lewis Buskirk, who was applying for a Revolutionary War pension. In 1837 in Dark County, MO, Robert Childers was on Grand Jury duty. On the 1850 census, Robert's daughter Martha was listed as having been born in Missouri in 1836. These dates show the areas and years where the Robert Childers family resided. Robert had gone on a trip through Illinois with his friend and church brother, William Conrad, just to see the country. He liked it and the group of Baptists in Adams County where his relatives had settled. He did not like the infighting, which at that time plagued the Williamstown, Kentucky Baptist Church. For this reason, when he returned from the trip to Illinois he made preparations to move his family there. Once arrived, however, he found the infighting had taken hold of the church in Adams County, so he again moved on, this time to Missouri and the area that is now Scotland County. Robert Childers, Jr. was born 1789 in Campbell (now Grant) County, Kentucky. His parents were Robert and Nancy (Pryor) Childers who had a farm on Grassy Creek. Later, Robert Jr., too, owned land on Grassy Creek. He married 24 January 1818 in Pendleton (now Grant) County, Kentucky to Sarah Ann Landrum, daughter of John and Mary (Collins) Landrum. residents of Pendleton/Grant County. Sarah, or Sally as she was called, was born 1800 in Louisa County, Virginia and came to Kentucky with her parents about 1810.

On Sept. 3, 1883 their son Nicholas Birkey married Matilda 'Tilly' Staker, the youngest child of Joseph Staker and Frena Roth. Henry and Magdalena are buried in the Evangelical Mennonite Cemetery at Groveland.	Augustin (Eigsti), Magdalena (I184)
11717	They farmed at Hangviller (now near the northeast border of the department of Moselle with Lower Alsace) from 1773 or earlier. In 1792 they relocated to Bickenholtz (four miles west of Hangviller). Nicolas remained there after Jacobée's death July 11, 1798. In 1806 he relocated to Gosselming (five miles west of Bickenholtz). They had eight, possibly nine, children. Their son Nicolas Martin was born at Bickenholtz circa 1780, and died at Voellerdingen, Lower Alsace Jan. 5, 1843. His death entry gave his age as 63, and named his parents as the deceased Nicolas Martin and an unknown mother. On July 29, 1806 at Bickenholtz he married Catherine Sommer. She was born at Pisdorf, Lower Alsace Nov. 26, 1781, and died at Reding, Moselle July 14, 1852, a daughter of Joseph Sommer and his first wife Catherine Güngerich.

11733	They lived on the Ziegelhof. Ziegel means 'brick.' A Hof can be a farm or estate, but the literal translation is yard, describing an enclosed courtyard surrounded by house, barns, and stable on most estates. Thus Ziegelhof could be the name of an estate, or a brick yard. This address is also found as Ziegelhaus. Heinrich lived on the Ziegelhof, and also at Ste. Marie-aux-Mines.	Husser, Heinrich (I12917)

11746	This couple farmed on the Freudenbergerhof estate near Zweibrücken. The family moved to Bavaria where Daniel was born in 1813. When the family applied for permission to emigrate, Jacob and daughter Catherine were living at Gradhof, Giesing, Munich. In 1837, Daniel was at Freimann and father Jacob and daughters Magdalena and Catherine were at Giesing. All of the family except wife Magdalena emigrated to Canada. ————————————— The Schrag family lived on different farms as tenants in Bavaria. The last place was in Giesing / Munich 1837. In the state archive in Munich I found under Fazikel RA 1730 following entry: From here, the familie applied for emigration to Upper Canada. Six family members filed for emigration in March 1837. Their fortune was 1000 Guldiers. The family came from the “Bavaria Rhine circel“ also Palatinate. ————————————— Regarding the military discharge certificates for the Schrag brothers, I have found a relevant and interesting paragraph in Hermann Hage's German dissertation on Amish Mennonites in Bavaria: Translation by Sem Sutter, 2020 “The three brothers Josef, Johann and Daniel Schrag, born on the Kaplaneihof in Pfalz-Zweibrücken or in Bavaria, performed their military service in the Bavarian army before 1835, although the family had lived since 1812 on the Gradhof, today in Kösching, Eichstatt, which would have included them in the exemption from military service for colonists from the left bank of the Rhine. Apparently they did not have the knowledge or the means to protect their sons from military service. In 1838 they were finally able to emigrate from Munich to Canada.” (From Herbert Holly on 8 Nov 2019: In the folder from the state archive Munich 11.8.2019: Faszikel Mennoniten: Military discharge certificate: No. 82 - Johann Schrag, Joseph Schrag, Daniel Schrag. Report from the captain of the ship “Altona” from the death of Peter Schrag of Palatinate.) Widower Jacob emigrated in 1837. According to Holly, his application for emigration documents was dated May 26, 1837. A National Archives list of passengers arriving at Baltimore from foreign ports in September 1837 shows Jacob Schrag, 84; John, 32; Daniel, 24; Magdalene, 36; Catherina, 34; and Catherina Miller, 13. An archives index card says they arrived Oct. 1, 1837. From Joe Staker The Schrags of Kösching Ulrich Schrag and Marie Stalter were the parents of Jacob Schrag. He was born on the Gersbergerhof estate (three miles northeast of the city of Zweibrücken) in July 1760, and died at Wilmot, Ontario April 25, 1838. Jacob married Magdalena Holly. She was born at Nehwiller-près-Woerth, Lower Alsace in 1767, and died at Wilmot Oct. 29, 1838, a daughter of minister Jörg/Georg Holly and Barbara Bürki. They farmed on the Freudenbergerhof estate near Zweibrücken. Their son Christian Schrag was born there Dec. 24, 1798. He married Elizabeth Bürki/Birkey, who was born circa Jan. 24, 1802. They farmed at Kösching, above Ingolstadt. Kösching is adjacent to Hellmannsberg, where the Sutters leased an estate in 1811. Christian died at Unterföhring (a suburb on the northeast side of Munich) Aug. 26, 1831. Christian's parents [s/b father only], brothers, and sisters went to Canada in 1837. Elizabeth also emigrated from Europe with her children, arriving at New Orleans in 1846. At first they lived in Butler County, where Barbara may have met and become engaged to Joseph Heiser. Heiser went to Dillon to work on railroad tracks in 1848. He labored on the rails to Peoria until 1850, but came away with little savings. Joseph and Barbara married Feb. 4, 1851, and lived at Elm Grove. Elizabeth lived to be 90, and died Jan. 24, 1892. She is buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery as 'Elizabeth Schrag.' Herald of Truth, February 1892: "On the 24th of January, 1892, near Pekin, Ill., of the infirmities of old age, Elizabeth, widow of Christian Schrag, aged 90 years. She had been a widow for 31 years [61 years]. She leaves four children, 23 grandchildren and 54 great-grandchildren. Her last words were, 'Come, Lord Jesus.' Buried in the Pleasant Grove graveyard.

The first four or five children were born in Ludwigswinckel, Palatine, and the rest of the children were born in Gros Rederching, France (57). Heibert gives the marriage date as 1858.
