Dick Baars has wonderful Baars records, but he was not able to find the ones I was looking for. I knew my husband's ancestor, Chris Baars, came to Chicago from Germany in about 1857. I was never able to find him there or in Kankakee County, Illinois, where the family lived later. Then I learned that the Evangelical Lutheran Churches listed specific birthplaces for marrying couples, and I found his birthplace by searching those records. His home town was Kraase, A tiny place in Mecklenberg, and here are the Baars church records for his family, brothers and sisters: Child: Johann Heinrich Carl Baars,born 10 July 1814, bap. 17 July 1814 Father: Johann Wilhelm Baars, laborer of Kraase Mother: Maria Elisabeth Boest Godparents: Caroline Dorothea Sophie Lange, servant on estate of Mullenhagen Heinrich Baldt or Buldt, servant (horses, fields) Johann Fredrich Busse, laborer in Kraase Johann Julius Pantlin, servant (horse) in Mullenhagen Child: Johanna ?
