Simon A. Strauss New York/Hesse Darmstadt
I have a brick wall here.My gggrandfather Simon A. Strauss was born in the area of Hesse Darmstadt.He was born February 1851.At some point he ended up in New
York.From what I can tell he had unmarried relations with my gggrandmother Jessie Melville Kirkwood.The daughter from this union was adopted by a family that lived near Jessie Kirkwoods family in South Carolina.It seems that sometime after the birth of the child Jessie Kirkwood went back to South Carolina and the Huckabee family adopted the
child.Jessie died in South Carolina.I have no other information at all on Simon Strauss however.Any information or direction would be much appreciated.
