Schwitzgebel Genealogy (and more)

11 October, 2006

Update: K.C. Schwitzgebels and Herefords

I've received some new information via e-mail from Matthew Simonds:

Charles Granby Simonds (1831-1902) the grandfather of Robert Edward Hereford. You have his middle name with a "d" in it which should not be there.

New Information from Missouri and California death certificates:

John William Hereford (the father of Robert Edward Hereford) was born February 2, 1859 in Austin, Cass County, Missouri and died in Independence, Jackson County, Missouri, November 15, 1925. He is buried in the Mt. Washington Cemetery in Independence, MO.

Ida May Hereford (the sister of Robert Edward Hereford) was born in Gunn City, Cass County, MO, March 13, 1887 and died in Kansas City, Jackson County, MO, April 14, 1915. She died of cholera and (like her father) was buried in Mt. Washington Cemetery in Independence, Jackson County, MO.

Roberta Frances Hereford (the dauther of Robert Edward Hereford and Helen Schwitzgebel Hereford) was married firstly, March 21, 1928 in Kansas City, Jackson Co., MO to Rudolph Fink Marsden who was born December 29, 1904 in Louisiana and died February 20, 1955 in Los Angeles County, CA.

I've updated this information to my research database, and it will be reflected in the web site database the next time I regenerate the pages.
