Johann Georg Friedrich Leins

Notes:

He was a farmer. On birth and death records he is listed as Johann Friedrich and on the marriage record he is listed as Georg Friedrich. But no other Friedrich Liens is listed between 1784 and 1826, so it is assumed they are the same person.

Email from Dot Williams, dated May 23, 2005:

A belated Thank you for mailing me the German Family Church Records. Several years ago you forwarded some of these that you had received by e-mail (I think it was) from a man in Germany. I took my copies with me when I went to Salt Lake City that year, and asked for help reading them from a lady who worked in the International Department. The Old German was very difficult to read, but she did it as if she was reading the morning paper. I was amazed. Anyway, I compared what she had read for me, with this information from Kathy Bonnell, and found 3 places where we did not agree.

1) Adam Benkelman was born in 1825 not 1835.

2) (Generation 3) Christoph Stahle married Barbara Fritz not Frey. I just took another look at the original record, and it sure looks like Fritz to me.

3) (Generation 5-last page) Georg Friedrich Leins was born 25 January 174(5)?. There is a line in the copy that goes right over the last digit but it looks like a 5. But it certainly was not 11 Apr 1740 (as per Kathy Bonnell). The death date was correct. I'm not going to change my information, because I truly think it is more accurate than hers. But it is a good summary of the Benkelman collateral lines, and Thank You for sending it to me.
