Until a few years ago we only knew that our earliest known ancestor was Johann Christoph Groebe. He was born in 1798 in Westhofen, Germany and came to the U.S. to settled on a farm southwest of Chicago around 1865. He and his wife Magdalena are buried in the small Hazelgreen Cemetary in Alsip, Illinois. He was known as Christoph.
Most of the information about Christoph's descendants in America was compiled by Carol Wiedmier in 1984. She did it by tapping the memories and informal records of living relatives across the country.
When this information was put on the Groebe Family web page a number of people saw it and began adding to it. First of all we were contacted by Fritz Carlo and his wife Ilse Groebe, living in Worms, Germany. And then Karl Friedrich ( aka Fritz), who owns the winery in Westhofen, wrote. Their information established the birthplace in Germany of Christoph, provided more information about his parents and siblings, and gave data on the siblings of Christoph who stayed in Germany. Ilse's son Gunther visited while on a business trip in 2001. And Tom and Katie visited with Fritz and Ilse, and also picked grapes at Fritz's winery while touring Europe in 2001. For more on that go to German Groebes.
A major break came when Neil Wheeler sent me information about his relationship by the marriage of his ancestor, Anna Margaretha Bender, to the Johann Christoph Groebe born in 1730. But very importantly he gave me the e-mail address of Pat Thompson who has done a finely documented search of the Lutheran Church records. She is related as a descendant of Valentin Groebe, born in 1800. Pat lives in Montana.
We have had another contact from Groebe's living in Massachusettes and descended from Theophilus George Groebe who came from St Eustachius, an island in the Dutch Antilles. We have not yet been able to establish if we have a common ancestor.
So far we only know of two related Groebe families that migrated to America. The series of books entitled "Germans To America" shows a number of people having the last name Groebe (also Grobe). But so far only Valentin (b:1800) and Christoph (b:1798) are know to be relatives. Valentin, a locksmith, came with his four children on September 13,1853 aboard the ship Goodwin, shortly after his wife died in Germany. He settled in Pennsylvania.
About a year later Christoph sailed from Antwerp to New York, aboard the Golden Eagle on August 11,1854, with his wife Magdalena and five of their children. They ended up in Illinois on a farm near Chicago.
There are a number of mysteries unresolved by the information that we now have. The church records for the first two of Christoph's children show Margaretha Blesch as the mother; the latter ones show Magdalena Blesch. We don't know if there was only one women using two differnt names, or if he might have been married to sisters.
Also Carol's compilation of undocumented data shows one of Christoph and Magdalena's children to be a girl named Christina, who lived in Oak Lawn. The documented church record from Germany shows Christina, but unlike many records, does not give the sex of the baby. The record is a little unclear, but Thompson and Wheeler, who can read German, have looked at it and concluded that the name is Christina. The mystery comes about because the original ship's log of the Golden Eagle clearly shows that a son named Christian, not a daughter Christina, was on board and of the same age. So far we have not been able to unravel this mystery.
If you are in any way related to Christoph or any other Groebe, or have any additional information we would appreciate hearing from you so that our earlier family can be documented.
We would also like to have any additions or corrections to the information shown below. Current generations are omitted to retain privacy. Some additional information about living relatives is available to family members on request. I am a son of Edward Frank Groebe.
