| HI! Guess Who!! Just thought I would check your site out. Which one of the find ladies do you belong to, in the photograph? Sorry I haven't been in touch but I've gotten side tracked on my COX line. I had nothing but my greatgrandmother Alice Cox whom married my greatgrandfather, John A. Johnson. That was a week ago, after 4 years of working on the family tree. Then, I discovered that his brother's, Gustaf W. Johnson, wife, Mary E., maiden name was also COX. Then I thought SISTERS???? WEll, I was right!!!! 1800 census in Kansas & 1850 in Indiana has given me two more generations. Now I have both my 2nd Great & 3rd Great Grandparents of COX. This was a great find. Both Paul & I have direct COX lines running parallel to the same part of the country. We are watching this line closely. Our wives swear we are related. Thanks for everthing. Wish I could help you in something. I'll sign off for now, but I have something else to address with you. Bye Jerry | |||

| Thanks for your help. I am in Australia and find searching overseas challenging, especially since each country, state, county, etc. can be so different from the next. I shall follow your suggestions and will let you know how they helped me find my husband's deceased "lost" relation, a Mrs. Elsie Story of Los Angeles, wife of Nelson. | |||

http://liar-55.tripod.com/index.htm Murder The information you just have acquired is shocking and contrary to what we are told by our government. Everything in this e-mail and web-page can be easily verified so don’t just take our word for it. Take the time to verify it for yourself. Our Country’s future is at stake. Our country has been hijacked and our nation is in serious trouble. Now there is tangible evidence and yet our government is still lying to us to protect the Bush administration from prosecution for treason. Our government did everything they could to try to stop us from hearing what really took place and how our people died in New York at the World Trade Center. It took a court order and three years of litigation to obtain these audiotapes that our government does not want you to hear. In this web-page are five clips from a surveillance camera that was outside the Pentagon during the 9/11 attacks, and former immigration officer for Homeland Security, Mary Schneider, implicates the Bush administration. Eyewitnesses at the scene speak out about the World Trade Center collapse, and the voices of the rescue workers from audio tape 776923 where a rescue worker yelled out "EXPLOSION!" as his radio went dead and the 26th floor exploded and one of the World Trade Center buildings collapsed. Click here for more information: http://liar-55.tripod.com/index.html We need to bring the Bush administration to justice for what they have done to our country and for the murders of our people. Thank you for listening. | |||

| OUR GERMAN-RUSSIAN HERITAGE I have located several references that indicate that the surname Dinkel if of occupational origin, one of those names derived from the trade or profession once pursued by the original bearer. In this instance, the name Dinkel cna be traced to the Germanic word "dinkel", meaning "spelt" Spelt was a grain similar to barley and wheat, which was grown extensively in the German speaking states during the middle ages. In those days it was common practice to identify a person with the type of work he did. Thus a person (farmer) that grew spelt was named Dinkel occurs in 1364. Many of the Germanic people departed from German during the late 1700's and early 1800's due to the disaster in that part of the world following the Seven Year War (1756-1763). Family tradition suggests that our DINKEL ancestors emigrated from Koblitz, Bavaria in 1764, during the exodus of Germans to Russia. There was a major economic crisis in all Europe after the war, poverty was rampant and soldiers were roaming the countryside looking for work and something to eat. Catherine the Great of Russia, of Germanic ancestry, had vast expenses of land that she wanted settled, developed and protected from the heathen nomadic tribes that lived in scattered sections of the Russian steppes. In 1762 she issued an invitation, referred to as a "Manifesto", to the European peoples. This invitation, being rather vague, produced few results so she issued a second invitation in 1763 containing 10 articles making specific promises to anyone that settled in Russia. This invitation garnered many people, including some 25,000 Germans from 1763 to 1767, willing to accept her invitation. From 1764, when the first settlers arrived in the Saratov region of the river Volga, until 1768 some 104 villages were established, 44 on the Bergseite and 60 on the Wiesenseite of the Volga. The villages on the west side, the mountain side, of the Volga were on the BVergseite, those on the east side, the meadow side, were on the Wiesenseite. The village of Herzog, on the Weisenseite, along the river Karaman was established in 1766. Times were extremely difficult when the settlers first arrived. They had to erect their own shelters and establish their villages in the vast expanse of the Volga steppes. Their initial shelters were mere earthen huts. The original settler list for the Colony of Herzog, dated 14 July 1766, comprised of 35 families does not contain the surname DINKEL. It does, however, contain teh name of Johann and Anna Kuhn, names in positions 48 and 49 on Andreas A DINKEL's Pedigree Chart (included). The first reference DINKEL (Nicolaus) was located in the original settler list for the Colony of Mariental dated 1766. His name has not been found in any of the 1798 census that have currently been translated. The census of Herzog, dated 2 June 1798, does indicated a Jakob DINKEL, had resided in Herzog but had moved to Leichtling in 1786. The 1798 census of Leichtling indicates that Jakob had resided there but had died prior to this census. His wife, Helen Ortman, and their children are included in the census of 7 October 1798. This census indicates that Joseph, a son of Jakob and Helena, was 3 years old at the time. Additional research disclosed that Joseph was the father of Peter who was the father of Andreas. Eventually, the privileges bestowed on the settlers by the Manifesto of 1763, especially the exemption from military service, aroused the resentment of the Russians. In January 1874 a military law was passed requiring the settlers to serve in the armed services. This, the repeal of the special privileges granted by Catherine the Great in the Manifesto, aroused extreme indignation in the German settlers. In the spring of 1874, meetings were held in Herzog on the Wiesenseite, and Balzar on the Bergseite, to select scouts to the United States in search of new land to settle. The scouts returned with favorable reports. The initial military draft of settlers in 1874 precipitated matters and the first departure of settlers for the United States occurred in October 1875. A larger group followed, departing in June 1876. Our ancestors, Andreas DINKEL and Katharine KUHN, were among this latter group. Departing Saratov, this group occupied 17 coaches, some progressed to Hamberg and the remainder to Bremen. Andreas and Katharina were in the group progressing to Bremen. The Bremen group took passage on the North German Lloyd S.S. Mosel, under the command of ship master H. A. F. Neymaker. The fare was 38 rubels (27.36) per passenger. Katharina is listed as passenger 514 in steerage and Andreas is listed as passenger 542 in steerage on the passenger list of the ship, which includes 705 passengers. The S.S. Mosel arrived athe the Port of New York on 29 July 1876. Those coming to Kansas immediatly made arrangements, at rubles (11.52) per passenger, to proceed to Kansas arriving at Herzog/Victoria on 3 August 1876, the rubel was worth 72 cents. After arriving in Herzog, Victoria, Andreas worked at various employments including a tour with the Kansas Pacific Railroad. He completed application to homestead the south 1/2 of the NE 1/4 of section 32-13-16 on 26 December 1877. Andreas and Katharina married on 21 January 1879. Their first child, Andreas A., was born on 28 July followed by nine more children, for a total of five boys and five girls. He purchased his first parcel of land, the north 1/2 of the NE 1/4 of section 32-13-16, from Magdalena Riedel, on 24 October 1884, for $425.oo. He was granted a homestead patent for the south 1/2 of the NE 1/4 of section 32-13-16 (applied for on 26 December 1877) on 27 Jaunary 1887. The patent was given under the hand of President Grover Cleveland. He purchased additional lands in ellis and Trego Counties., He also purchsed Lot 5 in Block 2 in the Nicholaus Dreiling addition to the town of Herzog on 26 February 1901 for $300.00 from Martin and Magdalena Riedel.
