Born in Fuchs Haus in Wunderthausen. I once thought that he had come to America in 1867 but this appears to have been a case of mistaken identity.

Riedesel James L. [Male] b. 13 OCT 1892 Big Rock, Clinton, Iowa - d. 27 APR 1916 Trout Park Camp, Kane County, IL

Died under suspicious circumstances. He had been employed a cashier for the Cudahy Packing company in Elgin, Illinois, for two to three months at the time of his death. He was staying with friends in a cabin near the "Trout Park Camp" around Elgin. The newspaper reported that one of his roommates "was awakened by Riedesel's making a strange noise. He shook his companion but got no answer: Riedesel's breaths appeared to be coming in gasps and within a few minutes her ceased to breath . . . he appeared to be in good health but yesterday complained of being numb." The attending doctor attributed his death to "a severe attack of heart trouble", but no autopsy was performed.

Riedesel Dina [Female] b. ABT 1853

Title: New York, Passenger and Crew Lists (including Castle Garden and Ellis Island), 1820-1957
Publication: Name: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc.; Location: Provo, UT, USA; Date: 2010;

Event: Departure

Event: Arrival: 9 NOV 1867

The only record of her existence is a passenger list for the Argonaut out of Bremen carrying other family members; the ship docked in New York out of Bremen on November 9, 1867. She is not listed with them in the 1870 Census nor does any birth record in Wunderthausen look like hers. While she could already have been married by 1870, she may also have died by then. Her half-brother Louis D.'s obituary alludes to two half-sisters in 1929.

It is not out of the question that the young woman named as Dina Riedesel in the ship's 1867 record was in fact not a Riedesel at all but used the name to emigrate with another family.

Dina was normally a nickname for Christine.
