Note	Hi, James, I am able to offer you some information. Attached is H.W. Moeller's obit from the Everly paper. Unfortunately the page I have does not have the page number nor the date of the paper, and I realized that they were missing when I was no longer in Iowa. I could have checked last summer but forgot that I needed to. I do have the name of the newspaper; I just don't have it available at the moment. Remind me to give it to you. Anyway, it answers your question about their marriage. Mr. and Mrs. Chris Dyhrkopp mentioned at the end were my paternal grandparents. Chris was Theodore's brother. Both were sons of August. It says that H.W. emigrated in 1863, but in the census it says 1864 or 1865. It also says that he was born in Besdorf, SH. If he is related to me, he may have grown up in Besdorf, but he was born in the Malente/Sielbeck area ‎(near Eutin)‎. He likely was Mathias Hinrich Wilhelm Möller, son of Nicolaus Hinrich Möller and Sophia Christina Åsbar/Osbar Dürkopp ‎(my great-great grandmother)‎. H.W. was baptised July 23, 1843. There is no record of the family in that area after 1845. The birthdays in the Malente church book match for H.W. and his brother H. Rudolph who lived in Benton County, IA, when my D relatives did, and lived in the same area of Clay County as my D relatives. Also, my great-grandfather remarried in Iowa in 1876, and Rudolph Moeller was his witness. ‎(It is clear in the Everly history book that H.W. and H. Rudolph were brothers.)‎ Also, European records show that they went to the U.S. ‎(http://www.rootdigger.de/)‎ I've corresponded with the man who has the website and may pay him a little to give me more. He has told me that their father Nicolaus Hinrich Moeller died in Nov. 1876. I have not found H.W.'s marriage in the Illinois records. Maybe they married across the river in Iowa. That would not be unusual. Their oldest child was born in IL per the census. I have not been able to get any information from Connie and Cliff even though I know their mother had information because she provided some for the history book. I may not have asked for photos so hopefully they will have those. I don't know what happened to their old family papers. Maybe you'll be more successful than I. Yes, I do have all the information that Einar has ‎(which my parents gave him)‎. I went to his place in IL in 2004 and took photos of everything. Donna Dyhrkopp Clark
