As you know this Arootdigger bits of Blog fancies the Maves family. So here you will find Family History.
I am going to come back with a bit on this Maves family member as soon as i can.
At the moment I find the font hard to read so something must be done to fix that problem.
I think the information at the bottoms shows up very clearly, so maybe that needs and exchange so it doesn't becaome all one color. The formatting has really changed. I have a bit to learn! Like how to get paragraphs!
Any suggestions?
Until then, take care.

I kind of want to rehash something I mentioned about the name change a few posts down the page. I had said that even in coming to<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Amerika</span> they already had the name changed. At least in the ship list I read about the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bark Mississipppi</span> the name was not Mewes or Mews. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">As I was browsing for some information off the web with google [</span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"> Of course what else</span><span style="font-style: italic;">] I ran into the </span><a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://web1.greatbasin.net/%7Egens/MATER/MAVES/WW2CE1.HTM">Kilgore / Simmons</a><span style="font-style: italic;"> link with a Maves letter [ <span style="font-weight: bold;">Which is no surprise.</span> ] from Wilbur Wesley Maves to Bud. {</span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"> I am not sure who he is.</span><span style="font-style: italic;">] on the topic of his family from Stettin Poland. He mentions this name change. I find it amusing for some reason and so I am going to cut a part or portion of it for you. [<span style="font-weight: bold;">wink</span>] Then a little discussion about the letter. If you pay attention you can pick up a couple new facts. I helped a little by highlighting a few things to draw your attention.</span><br /><br />I<span style="font-style: italic;">t rings a little like an obit. I read in the Eau Claire Leader the other day. </span><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-style: italic;">[Note:</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> Which I still must find to document the date]</span><br /><br /><br /><p align="right"> </p><blockquote><p align="right"><span style="font-size:130%;">16 Oct 1982<br /></span> </p><p align="left"><span style="font-size:130%;">Dear Bud,<br />My son, Carl Edwin Maves, forwarded the letter, which you wrote to him on July 10, to me. I am Wilbur Wesley Maves, born 25 Feb 1908 in Superior Wis. of parents who were both born in Dunn County. I am assuming that you refer to Menomonie, the county seat of Dunn Co. located near Eau Claire, Wis., in your letter. I am sure we are related but just how I am not sure. I am sorry that I haven't answered your letter sooner, but there are many reasons; one of the most important is that we (my wife and I) were in Wisconsin most of the summer. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"> I will try to find some Maves related to both of us. My ancestor, who founded the family in America was<span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);"> </span><u style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">John</u><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">, Gottlieb, </span><u style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">Julius</u><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"> Mews</span> according to a niece who has done research on the family tree. My father always referred to Gottlieb as his grandfather and I have no idea where the<span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"> names John and Julius came from</span>. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"> </span> My great-grandfather Gottlieb Maves was quite a guy. I admire him very much. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-weight: bold;">For one thing, he was so 'fed-up' with everything European that he anglicised the name. Mews in German is pronounced Maves (M, A as in Ahab, Vay the German W and S</span>). I have much more information on the Mews spelling of our name but will save it for a later time. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"> Gottlieb Maves had a large family, as was common in those times. Charles (my grandfather) was the oldest. Fred, the second oldest, lived on a farm near his brother Charles. When I was small my dad sometimes visited his Uncle Fred and I played with some of my second cousins; however I cannot name any names. It is possible that our relationship is through my dad's Uncle Fred. Others in Gottlieb's family were Theodore, once a street-car motorman in Milwaukee, but I remember him as a farmer somewhere in Central Wisconsin. Here, too, a relationship is possible. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"> John, who I remember well was a florist in Eau Claire, and died with no children. Sarah lived in Superior and had four daughters. William lived near Appleton (I should have mentioned him before Aunt Sarah) changed the name Maves back to Mews. The youngest Edward lived in Milwaukee and I am very familiar with his children, my cousins (once removed) Victor, Julia & Violet. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">My niece also mentions August and Heinrich as two sons of Gottlieb.</span> This is a surprise to me as I have no recollection of my father ever talking about his Uncle August or Uncle Heinrich. I don't know that they lived to adulthood, but if they did here too is a possible connection. </span></p></blockquote><p><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-size:85%;">And this passage. </span><br /></span></p><p></p><blockquote><p><span style="font-size:130%;">There was, also, a group of <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">Maves' who lived near Stanley in Wisconsin. My father, who was a minister and official in the Evangelical Church (now United Methodist) </span>was well known and travelled extensively in Wisconsin. He often visited his 'cousins' and friends in Stanley. They (the Stanley Maves') and my dad never did establish their exact relationship. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-weight: bold;">Our ancestor, Gottlieb, came to America in 1853.</span> Their ancestor, whom they were not sure was a brother or cousin of Gottlieb arrived, as I remember, about 10 years later. By coincidence, they also anglicized the name.</span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"> <span style="font-size:100%;">Many years ago my <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">dad had a cousin Fred who lived in Fairfield Cal.</span> In fact, our family corresponded (Christmas Cards etc) with<span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"> Edna Maves, whom I believe was Fred's widow.</span> How are Fred and Edna related to you? My dad visited some relatives who lived near <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">Napa </span>years ago but I don't recall that they carried the name Maves. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size:100%;"> I guess this is enough for a first letter. I look forward to hearing from you and am interested in how we may be related. Incidently, I am an electrical engineer, retired from the faculty of the <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">California State</span> Polytechnic University (Cal Poly) in Pomona. I lived and worked in Milwaukee in 1943 when we moved to California. Here I worked in industry until 1966 when I joined the faculty at Cal Poly. </span></p><p align="right"><span style="font-size:100%;"> Sincerely, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">Bill W.W.Maves</span>. </span></p><p align="left"> </p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-size:100%;">(In the margins of the first page is this note: You might tell your sister that my cousin Florence Maves Heft lives in Sunnyvale Phone 735-1455) </span><br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p></p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p style="font-style: italic;">Well there it is, a filled letter of info. The best read letters are those with Genealogical intent. The Kilgore tree carries another letter too. By the way, I found them by accident fishing for info on Wilhelmina Meyer and saw the Taylor namen so I stopped to bite. I love Genealogy accidents!</p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">As promised a discussion, though small, on the letter.</span><br /></p><p style="font-style: italic;">1- Julius a first name was Gottliebs fathers name.<br /></p><p style="font-style: italic;">2- Stanley Wi. A few years back a fellow worker/and part time pastor mentioned a Husby family living at Stanley. I was not then looking for a Jacob Husby did not pay attention to the names he mentioned. And now it is interesting to read of other Maves there.</p><p style="font-style: italic;">3- It is not surprising to find settlement at Milwaukee, which is not that far from Chicago. One of the earliest settlements in Wi was Reedsburg, Loganville,Sauk co, [Baraboo a place as well]. Plus, others passengers on the ship they traveled with had intentions to go to Milwaukee.<br /></p><p style="font-style: italic;">4- One must remember the spelling of Mews while searching. And variations in spellings. Such as census spellings as in Gotlibb, Gotlib, or Gottlieb. Bill instead of William and John instead of Johann. <span style="font-weight: bold;"> I am sure this family angelized as soon as possible.</span></p><p style="font-style: italic;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span><span>5- Is it right to correct a spelling error in somonee else's letter?</span></p><p><span style="font-style: italic;">6- </span><span style="font-style: italic;">Bud is Clarence 'Bud' Emil Maves<span style="font-weight: bold;">, </span>who died 1984.</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p style="font-style: italic;">Well, we haven't discussed nearly all the highlights, but your still welcome to bring them up yourself, or anything you like.

Residence at Dunn county, Wisconsin. She is the source of the names given. She said Bert lived in Oregon. Carl was a Methodist preacher. See me for details on Victor.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">HERBERT [Herb] MAVES</span> son of Charles Maves and Augusta Hine [ Hein] is in their family portrait. Can you find him? Sporting the Whiskers is of course the father Charles. Ahhhh, maybe the love of whiskers and mustaches is a family trait?? A good source tells me that Herbert is the youngest child at the left.<br /><br /><br />Herbert comes from the long line of <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mewes</span> from <span style="font-style: italic;">Stettin Poland or vorpommern</span>. Julius Frederick Mewes was found there with his wife Charlotte of the Schwane familien name.<br /><br /><br />Julius Frederick Maves son Johann Gottlieb Maves with wife Caroline YOEKES or JOECKES and family emigrated in 1856 to America on Bark Mississippi. I am told it was at the time of arrival to America that the name was changed to Maves.<br /><br />I wonder why. I have seen other Maves names. Were they from the same family too. I have seen in the same county where these descendants of this family lived, another family seemingly unrelated bearing the name Mewes. I think Mewes was a fairly common name, too.<br /><br />Often times the name change happens at the check in point at <a href="http://www.castlegarden.org/">Castle Garden</a>, when the officials perhaps influence he nervous immigrants. And it sticks?<br /><br />But that may not be the case. On the passenger list of the [ship] <a href="http://www.immigrantships.net/1800/mississippi18560610.html">Bark Mississippi</a> listed as 10.June.1856 we find the name listed as<span style="font-style: italic;"> Maves</span>. I think I have seen it listed at another site as <span style="font-style: italic;">Mawes</span>.<br /><br />I'd love to know the actual reason. It would be interesting to find out.<br /><br />Their destination was to be Chicago, Illinois. Somehow they made their way to Pierce county, Wisconsin living a short time by Baldwin. From there to Buffalo county and eventually to Dunn county.<br /><br />Note: <span style="font-style: italic;"> My thanks goes to </span><span style="font-style: italic;">A</span><span style="font-style: italic;">.

I always like to find fresh blood.........lines. tee hee.<br />So I hope that explains the title. lol. It was about three years ago on Halloween eve as I was checking my emails, I discovered that I had been the Fresh blood line found by my Mothers relative. I razzed him about it. He never confessed to the implication. I suspect it was his humor. At Halloween as I think of this, it makes me smile every time.<br /><br />She must have done good research because the mother told me about land records and even told me the parents Of Herbert Maves. I do hope I have something here that she does not already have!

I should spend a little time on the family Yokes. Yokes is a family name in connection with the family name Maves.

In the Meyer family tree, I found that the Oleson family at Hazel Run, Yellow Medicine county in Minnesota traced back to Buskerud. A descendent had married Irma Martin. from Madelia Minnesota. I think If I recall correctly the wife was a daughter of Peter in that Oleson line from Buskerud. There was alos a Sorenson family across the street from the Martins house at Madelia. And Joannie Nelson live quite a bit aways down the street. <em>[hmmm!!

A lady who I think was a Peterson [ How could I have found out that?] say she had been to Granite Falls. I mentioned something about it to her that I had been there and she said to me that she doubted I had been there that far away. No i just let it go as we were strangers just talking. So that has always made me wonder, if there are more than one. Now I wonder if it was the one by Hazel Rrun Minnesota. So remind me to check into Oleson / Petersen of Buskerude -- Descendents in Minnesota and Wisconsin.<br /><br />Note: Nelson/ Nelsen family has married into Husby family. I also do not know history of this family either.<br /><br /><blockquote><p><br /><span style="font-size:180%;">Do you see now how one can keep so busy, because one </span></p><p><span style="font-size:180%;">family line Possibly could run into another???. </span></p><p><span style="font-size:180%;">My!!!
