Pictures Klaes Family



Peter Klaes, born 1780 in Endenich, son of Jodocus Klaes and Agnes Wallbruehl. In 1816 he marries Agnes Bungardt, born 1788 in Endenich, near Bonn.

The oldest son, Jodocus, was born 1819 (my direct line). With their children Gertrud, Anna Maria, Wilhelm und Heinrich they (Peter and Agnes) emigrated to America in 1845. They settled in Sauk County, Wisconsin. Regarding to the family register (of John T. Phelan), he had one leg amputated. Regarding to US Census of 1860 Peter lived with the family of Wilhelm in Honey Creek Township, Sauk County, Wisconsin.

An exact date of death is not known. It's guessed around 1860. In the Census of 1860 Agnes is not longer named.
