I have just recently begun a search on my grandfather, John Henry Eppings, born January 8, 1884 in Germany. He married my grandmother in Lewis county, Missouri, in 1908 amd was listed on a census as a farm laborer. All I ever heard was that he was an orphan. When I googled his name, your message board came up. It certainly sounds like your grandfather and mine were brothers! I hope to hear from you soon.

My gggrandfather was Wilhelm Diedrich Epping, brother of Johann Peter Martin Epping, born 22. Dec 1817.
JPM Epping was married to Anna Elizabeth Ojeman. They had 2 children:
Mary Anna Epping,28.Jan 1849 Charleston, S.C.- 14.Jan 1928, and Anna Rebecca Epping,22.Feb 1851 Charleston, S.C. - 13. Feb 1913.
Mary Anna was married to Egon A.Koerper. They had 3 children:1)Annie Koerper,1873 - ?; 2)Conrad E.Koerper,3.March 1877 - 9.Feb 1915 was married to Mary W.Allan; 3)Joseph Robert Koerper, 1879 - 1927 was married to Meta F. (...)Koerper.
I have no further information about descendents. May be "blumberg 146" who answered to your question in 2004 knows more ...
Anna Rebecca Epping, the person you are looking for, was
married to Alfred C.Girard,31.July 1841 - 31.Jan 1914. They had 4 children: 1)Alice A.Girard,20.Feb 1872 - 3.Jan 1931. She was married to Isaac Colburn Jenks and they had 1 daughter: Dorothy Alice Jenks, 24.Oct 1899 - 12.April 1993. She was married to Charles Packard Gilson. As I know they had 2 children. Are you one of them or is your dad one of them?

3)E.Elizabeth Girard, ? - 1909, was married to Ross L.Bush. They had 3 children: Gerard, Marion and Alfred.

My grandfather was left at the Deerfield orphanage in Quincy, Illinois when he was very young. He thought he had an older brother and sister.

He used the name John Henry Eppings but was not certain that his last named ended with an s - it may have been Epping.

If anyone thinks they may have information about my grandfather's family I would enjoy hearing from them.

Thank you

Re: Eppings and Frauenheims

My grandfather was left at an orphanage in Quincy, Illinios as a very young boy. He thought he had an older sister and brother from whom he was separated. He was taken by a family in Missouri to work as a farmhand.

I believe he was born around 1880. He used the name John Henry Eppings. However, he was not certain that his last name ended with an s.

I would like to hear from anyone who thinks they may have information about my grandfather's family.

Thank you

I've just started searching for surnames and noticed that you mentioned Scott County, Iowa Eppings (although it was awhile ago). I am a descendant of a Scott Cty, Epping. My Gr-Grandmother was Alvina Epping. She married Charles Mohr and they had 5 children (one was my gr'ma) and that is ALL I know. Do you have Alvina on your tree somewhere??

Re: info-Eppings in Iowa

CLeemans — 2002-03-30 21:46:33Z

Actually, I think I have found that Alvina (my g-gma)'s parents were Theodore Epping and Mary Theresa Lager. If you have different information about her parents, could you let me know. If you any additional information about Alvina (birthdate, siblings, etc.) that would be great!
