Carolina Uffelmann from Argentina:  My great-great grandparents were Georg Jakob Uffelmann and Anna Maria Propp, they had 7 (seven) children: Johann Georg ( my great-grandfather), Emilie Elisabetha, Dorothea Elisabetha, Katharina Elisabrtha, Anna Elisabetha, Margaret and Elizabeth. My great-grandfather married Elisabeth Heide and they had 3 (three) children in Russia. David (10) "my grandfather", Olinda (6), Jacob (4) and Marie Heide (14) Elisabeth's sister. All of them were born in Hussenbach, Russia.

I read with interest your posting regardng your family. I wondered if you have any informaion (census data, whatever) regarding the Sipple family, Katherine or Georg (George). It's my understanding they traveled from Philadelphia to Argentina about 1913.

Hi Carolina, I, too, would like to have more information as I am trying to put a book together for my family so that they may have an understanding of their family background and history, so if you have some information from your end that would be of use, please send to me.

Now, as regards my grandmother Katherine Elizabeth Sippel, she was born October 30, 1870 in Hussenbach. She was the daughter of Jakob Sippel and his wife Katherine Elizabeth Mehling. The Sippels also had two sons that I am aware of, Jakob and Georg. Katherine first married a man named Wagner (first name unknown) and they were to have two children, both of whom died from whooping cough. Katherine's husband was a soldier in the Tsar's army. He died, but the manner of his death, when, where, and how, be it accident, illness or war, is unknown. My grandfather, Heinrich Friedriechovic Rosenow ( who also lost his first wife, Anna Elizabeth Schwab in 1887), and Katherine Elizabeth Sippel were later married on June 7, 1892. They had eight children, to include my dad, all on record with AHSGR.
When they left Russia n 1913, they brought Katherine's mother and her two brothers, Jakob and Georg Sipple with them. Georg immigrated into Canada, I believe in Saskatchewan. Jakob and his mother, Katherine Sipple moved to Argentina. Unfortunately, I don't know where in Argentina the moved to or what might have become of them. Heinrich's grandmother was Katherine Propp, Her husbands name was Johann Georg Rosenoff. I would like to know more about her family as well.

I was waiting for a reply to the last comment because I wanted to ask some doubts regarding the matter. Actually my great grandparents migrated from Ohio to Buenos Aires in 1917. Do you have any data regarding the migration on that time? Their family name is 'Lambert.'
