My great-grandfather, Benjamin Walter Sands married Mary Elizabeth ( Elizabeth or Lizzie) Loweth (b. 18 March 1960 in Ohio; d. 11 Feb. 1929 - buried in Fairview Cemetery in New Albany). I have recently been given information that they married 27 Dec. 1889. They had two children. I know that there were some LOWETHs living in New Albany ca. 1894, as I have a memorial card sent from England to a "Mr. J. G. Loweth, New Albany, Indiana, America, US" The postmark year is not visible, but the memorial is for a "Robert Loweth" who died 25 Dec. 1894.

MUELLER, RUSCH, RUSH, SIEGEL posted by Cecile SANDS Ueltschey on Wednesday, January 13, 1999

I am looking for information on the Rush or Rusch family in Louisville, KY. My great-grandmother was Adeline Cecilia Rush (b. 26 Feb. 1880; d. 10 Sept. 1945 in Louisville, KY) who married Frank Mueller in Louisville, KY. Her parents were John Rusch (b. 1836?; d. 19 Dec. 1918 in Louisville, KY) and Barbara G. Rusch (maiden name unknown) (b. 1847?; d. 14 Dec. 1935 in Louisville, KY). My mother says that she always had seen "Rush" spelled R-U-S-H, but the obituary for Barbara found in my grandmother's (Verna Lee Mueller, daughter of Adeline) Bible has it spelled as R-U-S-C-H. Family lore has it that John Rusch was born in Alsace-Lorraine and came to Louisville from Pennsylvania. If anyone has information placing John and Barbara in Louisville, and perhaps their marriage date, I would be very appreciative. I have some information on the children of John and Barbara (all daughters) and some of their descendants that I am willing to share. Thank you. Cecile SANDS Ueltschey

They had 4 children (Verna Lee was my grandmother). Daniel served in the 32nd Indiana Volunteer Infantry in the Civil War (1862-1864). I believe he was in Ferdinand, Indiana at that time, but originally came from Germany or Switzerland. His wife's name may have been Louise Schaefer. If anyone has information about Daniel or Louise locating them in Louisville, perhaps marriage information, I would greatly appreciate it. I have some information on their descendents that I am willing to share. Thanks. Cecile SANDS Ueltschey

I am looking for information on my great-grandfather, Charles Frederick ("Fred") SIEGEL (b. 14 June 1885 in Louisville, KY; d. 25 Dec. 1956 in Louisville, KY). He married Theresa Marie OCHS (marriage date unknown) (b. 23 Aug 1885; d. 9 July 1969 in Louisville, KY).

Later handwriting on the back says that he is the father of Columbus and Ben, Aunt Sue, Ida, and Anna (?). I also have a photo of a Martha GRESHAM Sands, who I believe was his wife.
