Wilhelm Jaagin Hils and Maria Dorothea Rabe Germany/Iowa
This family sailed from Germany 26 Oct 1881 on the Suevia.
Ludwig---probably Louis --infant 1m Male Prussia
Marie ---wife 26 Prussia (she was a Rabe)
Wilh. Laborer- 32 Prussia
Herm infant 11m Prussia
I believe they had 2 children died in Germany.
A daughter Mina 1874-1879
A son Fredrick 1876-1879`
Son Herman W. 1878-1898
Son Louis 1880 1954
Son Alfred Emil 1883 Belle Plaine, Benton, Iowa-1956
Daughter Louise "Lizzie" 1885 Belle Plaine, IA.
I am related to this family through Marie Dorothea Rabe.
My grandfather was Louis Rabe who also came over 26 Oct 1881 on the Suevia with his father Henry Rabe. Louis and Maria were siblings. My mother was named Dorothy Rabe and she had a sister Dorothea Rabe.
Any info on the Hils would be great.
Who was Wilhelm's parents?
Thanks and God Bless.
