    ?  Q: a) John Pletschette *1644 and Jean Pierre Pletschette *1758
    ?        cannot possibly be 6 generations apart. The time difference
    ?        is 114 years, which would result in the sucessive fathers
    ?        being 19y old in average. -- Jean F. Languy

       oo Adamy Anna      *?? - +1770
       They lived in Neunhausen, in Wiltz Canton, in the
       Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. We believe Johannes was appointed
       "Burgermeister" (mayor) of Neunhausen in 1778. This was during
       the time Luxembourg was governed by Austria. It is said he
       owned the village, and all the people living in Neunhausen worked
       for Johannes.  In turn he governed the people.  (Please note, on
       the Family Tree or "Stammbaum" as given to me by Margot Kohl, his
       name was spelled with only one "t" at the end, as were all his
       decendents.  However, on the Pletschette Family Gravestone, his
       name is engraved as "Jak. Pletschette".  It is unknown how many
       children they had.  However, as was the custom of his time, he
       passed on his title and property to his oldest son:
       7. Pletschet J. Pierre *1758
                              +24AUG 1818 (!!)
    ?     oo Asselborn Maria  *??   - +1813
          Jean-Pierre was mayor of Neunhausen and signed
          with "J.P. Plaetschet, maeyer".
          It is unknown exactly how many children they had besides
          Bernard, Anna-Catharina known as Anne Marie & Th�r�se
          Pletscher, and possibly Maria-Catharina, but again the title
          and property were passed on to their oldest son Bernard.
    d      8. Pletschet Anna-Catharina *06 FEB1801 (!!)- +(?)
    d                                  (17 pluviose an 9)
    d         Q: b) Pletschet Anna-Catharina is said to be born
    d               5 FEB 1792 (17 pluvi�se an  9).
    d               One of the two dates is incorrect, as
    d               17 pluvi�se an 9 was 6 FEB 1801 -- Jean F. Languy
    d         A:  Right ! 17 pluviose an 9 was 6 FEB 1801 -- Ed Kohl
    d         A: b) The grave stone says she died on March 17, 1855
    d               at the age of 54 years. I would say
    d               February 6, 1801 is the logical date -- Steve Palen
    d
    d         Conclusion: the record seems to be correct as follows:

          8. Pletschet Anna-Catharina * 06 feb 1801 (17 pluviose an 9) (!!)
                                      + 17 mar 1855 at the age of 54
    
          8. Pletschet Maria-Catharina *? DEC1796
                                       + 10JUN1802 (21 prairial an 10) (!!)
    
    ?        Q: c) Same for Maria-Catharina said to be born
    ?              11 JUN 1793 (21 prairial 10).
    ?              21 prairial 10 was 10 JUN 1802  -- Jean F. Languy
             A:   That was an error:
                  the certificate dated (21 prairial an 10) is not
                  a birth certificate, but a death certificate.
                  So, Maria Catharina died 10JUN1802,
                  five years and seven months old, as specified
                  in the certificate.
                  Considering this, we can say that she was probably
                  born in december 1796. -- Ed Kohl

    ?        Q: d) Same for Bernard said to be born
    ?              1 AUG 1794 (14 thermidor 11).
    ?              14 thermidor 11 was 2 AUG 1803.
    ?              This is major problem, since he could not have
    ?              children by 1814!!  -- Jean F. Languy
             A: Right ! Bernard, born (14 thermidor an 11) is not identical
                with Bernard, married to Catharina Kellen (or Koellen)
                and bornprobably 1785 or 1786. In the birth certificate
                of his sonJean-Pierre (1814) it is specified that he is
                28 years oldand in his own death certificate (1853)
                his age is 69 years.
                In the same document it is certified that he was the son of
                Peter (Jean-Pierre) Pletschette and Marie Asselborn -- Ed Kohl
    
           8. Pletschet Bernard *1786(??) - + 08FEB1853 (!!)
              oo Kellen Catharina (or Catherine Koellen) *?? - +1861
              Bernard was also mayor of Neunhausen and signed
              with Bernard Pletschet, bourgmestre.
              (Notes indicate he may have inherited his title and property
    ?         in 1823?)  As far as we know, all of the following nine
              children were born in Neunhausen:
    
             9. Pletschet Jean-Pierre *22JUN1814 (!!) - +29AUG1887 (!!)
                oo Loring Anne-Catherine * 6DEC1824 - +1893 (daughter of
                Nicolas & Catherine Loring of Arsdorf)  Jean-Pierre was the
                oldest of Bernard & Catharina's, and thus inherited the
                title and property of Neunhausen.
                It is said he only registered the new born boys,
                the girls were registered by relatives.
    
                10. Pletschet Bernard Dieudonne Alexandre *4FEB1844 (!!)
                                                          +8MAY1921 (!!)
                    Bernard did not marry and had no children to
                    pass the title and property on to.
                    When he died, the land was sold.
                    It is said the relatives who emigrated to
                    America divided the money, while those who still
                    lived in Luxembourg divided the possessions.
    
                10. Pletschet Sophie *29SEP1849 (!!) - +15JUN1913
                    Her name is engraved on the Pletschette Family

                   Pierre  was mayor in Eschweiler in 1849 for the
                          first time and reelected in 1861
    
                The following is an email sent by Ren� Daubenfeld of LUX
                on 7/23/2000: Pierre Pletschette (1816) in Neunhausen, son
                of Bernard and Catherine Kellen, b. Nov 21,1814 in
                Erpeldingen married on Feb 21, 1836 in Eschweiler.
                I've found the following children, Anna Margaretha (1839),
                Marie Catherine (1840), Jean Pierre (1843),
                Jean Pierre (1844), Wilhelm (1846), Pierre (1848),
                Anna Catharina (1850).So I don't know who were the
                parents of the Jean born 1836.
                (Note: Pierre and Anne Marie did NOT emigrate to the USA
                in 1845 with three of their children on board the
                Silvanus Jenkins as previously thought!)
    
                In Nicholas Gonner's book, Luxembourgers in the New World,
                Pierre Pletschette (note new spelling) left Grosbous,
                Luxembourg With a family of four (presumably a wife and
                three children). He is listed in this book as a 40 yr. old
                farmer, who departed Antwerp on board the "Silvanus
                Jenkins".  They arrived in New York on July 3, 1845.
                Reference:  VII/3+4 (volume and issue) of Monthly
                newsletter of the Luxembourg Society of Wisconsin, 303 North
                Garfield Ave., Port Washington, Wisconsin  53074, which
                includes an abstract of the ship's manifest.  Pierre and his
                family were among the first settlers of Chicago, Cook
                County.  This area was (and maybe still is) known as the
                "Ridge".  Nicholas Faber from Bauschleiden (Wiltz), and
                Wilhelm Sinner, Johann Beck, and Pierre Pletschette from
                Grosbous, all arrived on the same ship and settled in the
                same area.  They encountered a wilderness with some woods,
                bad meadows, pastures and moors.  They bought land for $3-4
                an acre, and thought they had not struck a good bargain.
                Forty four years later, in 1889, the land was worth between
                $500-1500 an acre.  These men were farmers and truck-
                gardeners, specializing in vegetable production.  This
                district, on the western shore of Lake Michigan, between
                Chicago and Kenosha, Wisconsin, is very low-lying and flat,
                and stands only a few meters higher than the level of the
                lake.  In former times, where this was not a wasteland
                of sand and gravel, it was at best a prairie with only a
                middling stand of oaks and meager grass cover which in
                places was interrupted by marshy meadows studded with
                willows and pools of standing water.  The breaking waves of
                the lake on the shore had resulted in a deposit of sand,
                gravel and rubble over a short distance with the result that
                a ridge was formed, at some points closer to the water than
                at others, over a range from 12-15 miles, north of Chicago.
                According to Gonner's book of 1889, "If this area more
                nearly resembles a big garden than a desert, the change is
                attributable to Luxembourgers.  With superhuman effort, they
                transformed the sandy plain into vegetable gardens and the
                moors into fertile fields. Each time the truck gardeners
                sold their vegetables on South Water Street or at the
                produce dealers, they ungrudgingly drove home Chicago dung
                for the enrichment of their plots.  Luxembourger residents
                on the "Ridge" demonstrated what industriousness and tough-
                minded diligence is capable of producing in the long run."

    ?                     be a sister to Anna Margaretha (thus belong
    ?                     to the 10th generation), as rightly stated

                    and Pierre Pletschet, mentioned in Nicholas Gonners book
                    can't be identical :
                    "He is listed in this book as a 40 yr. old farmer" -
                    "They arrived in New York on July 3, 1845".
                    Born in 1816, Pierre had only 29 years
                    in 1845 and not 40. As he was elected mayor of
                    Eschweiler in 1849 and 1861, he couldn't arrive in
                    New York in 1845.

                It is said, that because Nicolas was not the oldest son, and
                did not inherit the title and the property, he was given ONE
                COW.  It is a standing joke in the family, to hold up your
                thumb and say, "What can you do with ONE cow?"   So Nicolas
                and Margaretha took their one cow to Boeven and together they
                had 12 children:

                   The following email was sent to me 7/23/2000
                   by Rene Daubenfeld of LUX: I think that your ancestors,
                   Carol, came from Bavigne, children of Nicolas Pletschette
                   and Anna Margaretha Wilmes. According to the records
                   the child that you call Sophie (1855), is called

                   she was not married to John Anges, it was probably her
                   sister Katharina Sophie (1868) who was his wife.

                       They emigrated to the USA and lived in Trail,
                       Minnesota.  When my Grandfather Joseph came
                       To the USA at age 16, he lived with John and
                       Sophie for four years. It might have been to pay
                       Off his travel expenses, to establish citizenship,
                       And to become of legal age for homesteading rights.
    
                   (Note:  The following email was sent to me 7/23/2000
                   by Rene Daubenfeld of LUX: I think that your ancestors,
                   Carol, came from Bavigne, children of Nicolas Pletschette
                   and Anna Margaretha Wilmes. According to the records
                   the child that you call Sophie (1855), is called
                   Josephine and died March 7, 1866. So I believe that
                   she was not married to John Anges, it was probably her
                   sister Katharina Sophie (1868) who was his wife.
                   Pondering this, I think
                   It is probably true!..Carol
