Theobald STRAUB
Margaret BLOSS / BLOSE |
Notice: a descendant of our subject is participating in the STRAUB
Y-chromosome DNA Surname Project. Tests, so far, have proven that
Theobald is closely related to the Peter
STROUP who married Rosanna KOSER, but no paper connection has been made.
Update (15 May 2016): our subject is also matching a descendant of Friedrich Wilhelm STRAUB, 1839 immigrant to St. Louis, MO, from Hesse-Darmstadt. Have we crossed the pond?! |
Husband: Theobald / Dewald / Dewalt STRAUB / STROUP
Birth: ca. 1770s, "Dry Land," Northampton Co., PA Death (intestate): 1844, Towamensing Twp., Carbon Co., PA Occupation: tradesman Y-DNA Haplogroup (deduced): I2-L38 Other Kin possibly: Christian
STRAUB (b. 1784-90) Dewald and Dewalt are not nicknames, they are the English spellings of the German given name, Theobald (just as William is the English spelling of Wilhelm). |
Marriage: 1799/1800 |
Wife: Margaret BLOSE / BLOSS / BLOS / BLAAS
Birth: 1780-84 Death apparently: 1840-50 — either that or she re-married after Dewald died because she does not appear in the 1850 census as Margaret (or Widow) STRAUB. Occupation: homemaker |
