Andrew married Anne Catherine Hodler who was born 10 Oct. 1801 at Ste. Marie-aux-Mines, Upper Alsace to Christian Hodler and Madeleine Maurer. Andrew and family left Blamont, France four years later in 1831 to emigrate via Baltimore to Butler County, OH with Andrew's brother Michael (1799-1861). In Butler County Andrew declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States. In 1854 they moved to White Oak Twp. McLean County, IL and at the age of 77 Andrew died on 3 Nov. 1876 at the home of his daughter, Catherine Troyer in Danvers, of the "infirmities of age." Ann died 14 December 1891 at Hudson, McLean County also of the "infirmities of age." Her obituary records "her posterity number 79"...She was buried...in the Simon Lantz burial ground."
