The sources below are cited inline throughout; the list is the count, and no total is printed here because a hand-written one drifted twice. Raw retrieved pages and record images are held in the private research directory, not on this site. Not every entry is a document, and each one that is not is labelled so that no reader mistakes it for one: S24 is what the family said, S46 is a DNA result, S57 is a relative's Ancestry tree, S58 is a published family genealogy quoting a will nobody here has read, S59 is an 1878 subscription biographical directory, and S66 is a published family genealogy whose Page County search found nothing and whose second search, on new names, found two generations at Probable. Those carry most of the depth below the second-great-grandparents, which is exactly why the tags matter. S25–S35 were added on 13 September 2026 with the Timberman and Caffey findings, S36–S45 later the same day with the Walker, Peters and Selland findings and the two paternal upgrades, S46 that night with the DNA, S47–S56 on 14 September with the Silva and Rose findings, S57–S63 the same day with the full-depth pedigree and the two portraits, S64–S66 on 15 September with the Azores lodge registers and the Kauffman-Coffman book, and S67 the same evening with Frank Silva Sr's 1946 obituary, the notice that confirmed Faial. S68–S73 followed on 16 September — Julius Proeger's Pennsylvania death certificate and his Kirchberg baptism, Medie Owens's Texas death certificate, the Peters–Selland marriage record, the Coffman family typescript and the memorial livestream — with S74–S77 the four Røldal parish entries and S78 the Pasadena press on Robert W. Coffman's career. S79–S88 were added on 17 September 2026: they are documents that were already published in the Documents section and were being cited on the cards above as though they were tree entries — the 1919 Ohio death certificate and the 1917 draft card, Mary Jane Wright's 1934 Texas certificate, the Page County birth register, the two Coffman gravestones, Dr. Wright's 1878 will and his printed county-history biography, the Martin headstone, the 1930 Jackson County census and the 1946 Roberts marriage record. S89 followed the same day — the 1962 Abilene Reporter-News interview in which James Burton Coffman names his niece at Abilene Christian, the only non-family source on this page for two facts that had been resting on the family obituary alone. S90–S102 were added on 17 September 2026 in the reconciliation pass: the Ohio birth index and CA Death Index that identified Anna Blanche Roberts's parents (S90–S91), the 1900 census of the Henry Roberts household in Wheeling, WV (S92), the PA death certificate and 1860 census that confirmed the Timberman grandparents (S93–S94), the TN marriage record and 1850 censuses that confirmed the Martin/Chenault line (S95–S98), the NJ Birth Index for Louise Timberman (S99), and the three DNA results — 23andMe paternal and maternal haplogroups and the GEDmatch "Are Your Parents Related?" test (S100–S102). The existing numbering has never been disturbed, so every citation printed above still points where it always did.

Images examined, read 26 September 2026. Confirmed “Philipp Pröger, Br. zu Seibothenberg … aet. 77 weniger ¼ Jahr”. The 1704 and 1705 burials were read in full and hold no Hanß Pröger. The volume ends with the 1705 total; the next burial volume begins in 1722, so the burials of 1706–1721 are missing from this film. The day of Philipp’s burial is partly legible ([1]7 March). The entry itself does not link Philipp to Hanß; the Michelbach register of 1627–1678 has a Philipp baptised to Hans Bröger of Seibotenberg on 22 June 1644, which makes him Hanß’s younger brother and the age of 77 probably a misreading of 61.

This is a later copy, not the original register, and it does not name Hanß.

Probable Generation 13: Aaron Quisenberry, born in Caroline County, Virginia, probably about 1715, died in Orange County in 1795, married Joyce Dudley “as is supposed”. Generation 14: Rev. James Quisenberry, born in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, 5 July 1759, died in Clark County, Kentucky, 5 August 1830, settled in Kentucky in 1783, married Jane Burris of Orange County on 4 December 1776. Generation 15: Colby Burris Quisenberry, born in Clark County (then Fayette County, Virginia) on 7 July 1788, died there 30 December 1870, married Lucy Bush of the same county on 16 December 1810. The author calls the whole descent “constructive”; generations 1–12, back to a Questenberg of about 1380, are his speculation and are not used here.

Madison County is where an Abraham Thomas consented to Lucy Thomas's marriage in 1821. The girl aged 10–15 or one of the girls under 10 could be Lucy, born about 1805, but the census does not say so.

A Bertha Stein and a Heinrich Stein stood sponsor together at Frieda Ladusch's 1896 baptism, and Pauline is a second wife, which fits Emma having a different mother.

Confirmed Groom Georg Friedrich Pröger, born 20 December 1838 at Erkenbrechtshausen, son of “† Georg Friedrich Pröger, Weber und Köbler” and Maria Margaretha geb. Stegmaier; bride Margaretha Barbara Bauer of Gröningen, daughter of Johann Michael Bauer. Family register II,343. The cross before the father's name means he was dead by September 1864. II,343 is the family-register page of the groom's parents; the couple's own pages are II,339 and III,113 (S1701, S1700). The day of his birth is written with this clerk's hooked 0, the same figure as in “18. 19. 20.” in the banns of the entry below; the index, and our first reading, took it for a 5. Read as the 20th it agrees with those two pages and with his parents' page. His 1838 baptism entry has not been read. Entry 7 on the same page, of 30 August 1864, is the marriage of Margaretha Prög[er], born at Erkenbrechtshausen on 13 May 1839, daughter of a living Georg Friedrich Prög[er], whose trade reads as master carpenter (Zimmermeister) rather than master weaver, and of the late Catharina Barbara, born Philipp(?). The register number beside them reads II,34 and a last figure that is not a 3, probably II,344; pages 343 and 344 are the two halves of one family's spread, so that number is doubtful. Her father is a different Georg Friedrich from ours, who was a weaver, was dead by 1864 and was married to a Stegmaier; he is not identified in this record. This entry is ours by the mother's name.

Carpenter, 24, farmer, born Kentucky; mother Lucinda Bowles, 22, housewife, born Kentucky; no earlier children. Affiant Nannie E. Evans, of Wallowa, Oregon, who gives her relationship as aunt, sworn before a notary at Emmett, Gem County, Idaho. The certificate was made 54 years after the birth, and the parents' ages are recollections. Lucinda's own death certificate and the 1870 census (S158) put her birth in February 1870, not about 1866, and the 1900 census gives Robert's as November 1866; the site keeps both. The index reads the middle name as "Lasy"; the image has Lacy. Lucinda's sister Nancy Ann Bowles married George R. Evans, so the affiant is probably she, but the certificate does not say so.

Sue was born eleven months after David C. Coffman and Emily Thornhill married (S334), and she is the Susan M. France named first among the five children in his will. Rappahannock County was formed from Culpeper in 1833, so a birth in 1820 in that district is Culpeper at the time; the informant was not a named relative.

This is the bride's home parish's copy of the marriage in S444. It agrees on the names and dates. It calls him Küfer where Gerabronn has Büttnermeister (both mean cooper), spells the bride's mother Zink for Zins, and leaves her father's trade unclear.

Probable The continuation of the Jacob Young family in S838: Lewis Harbour, 27, male, cabinet maker, born France; Eve, 24, born France; Lewis, 5, Harriet, 3, and Sarah, 4 months, all born Pennsylvania. Read from the image; S838 had this page only from the FamilySearch index. Harbour is the enumerator's English spelling of Harbauer. Why Probable: the 1850 census states no relationships, so Eve is the wife and the children are theirs by position only, and nothing on the page names Louise (born 1863). What fits: Eva Harbauer was born in June 1825, so exactly 24; the 1870 census also has her born in France; a cabinet maker Ludwig Harbauer is her husband in 1863; and Henriette, born 28 May 1848, is close to Harriet, 3.

She also swore that they married on 18 July 1894 in Scott County, Arkansas. The widow is a first-hand informant for the death, and the date matches Find a Grave. The town, Roby, is still Find a Grave only. The 1894 marriage date is her statement and is not settled: P. P. was already his wife in 1880 (S916), and the 1900 census says married 26 years (S972).

  1. S9811870 U.S. census — Miller Township, Dearborn County, Indiana, page 22, 9 July 1870, dwelling 133. Ancestry record 19206289. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Probable John Osborn, 22, laborer, born Ohio; Minnie, 22, born Indiana; and Charles, five months old, born in January 1870 in Indiana. The 1870 census states no relationships. The names, ages, birthplaces and county fit the Orsborn household of 1880 (S980) and 1900 (S974). Charles is not in the 1880 household, so he probably died young; with him the 1900 count of eight children born fits. That is inferred, not recorded.Cited on John W. Orsborn · Armenia Howard · Documents.
  2. S9821860 U.S. census — Ryegate, Caledonia County, Vermont, post office South Ryegate, page 211, 4 July 1860, dwelling 1523. Ancestry record 35322148. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Confirmed Orange Morrison, 28, farmer, real estate $1,500, personal estate $100, with Eliza, 24, and “Winny”, 4. The next dwelling (1522) is Bradley Morrison, 57, with “Annis”, 57, and Harriet, 21. Orange's age fits his birth in February 1832 (S975), and “Winny” fits Winona of 1870 (S360). The census states no relationships; Bradley Morrison next door is not named here as his father.Cited on Orange G. Morrison · Elizabeth J. (Lizzie) Miller · Documents.
  3. S9831880 U.S. census — Hilburn Township, Madison County, Arkansas, ED 104, page 25, 16 June 1880, lines 1–4. Ancestry record 6421264. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Confirmed A household continued from the previous page: Martha E., 12, and Lucinda, 10, born Kentucky, at school, then Sarah F., 7, and Lydia J., 5, both born Arkansas; all four with parents born Kentucky. The head of the household, James Boles, is on the previous page, which has not been read. Lucinda's age and Kentucky birth fit her birth on 27 February 1870 (S158). The younger girls' Arkansas births place the family's move from Kentucky about 1870–73.Cited on Lucinda Bowles Carpenter · Documents.
  4. S984U.S. Army Transport Service passenger list — 242nd Military Police Company, port of embarkation Liverpool, England, sheet 2 (date blank, after the First World War), line 45. Ancestry record 129837644. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Probable Harry C. Carpenter, private first class, army no. 2311994; to be notified in emergency: Mrs Lucinda Carpenter, mother, Phoenix, Arizona. Phoenix is where Lucinda Bowles Carpenter died on 28 September 1920 (S158), so this is probably her son. The list gives no age or birthplace for him, and no other record read names him as her son.Cited on Lucinda Bowles Carpenter.
  5. S9851900 U.S. census — Scott Township, Franklin County, Iowa, ED 140, sheet 6B, 11 June 1900, lines 76–80. Ancestry record 14339818. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Probable Johan Peters, 65, born October 1834 in Germany, and Sophia, his wife, 56, born July 1843 in Germany, both came to the United States in 1861 and had been married 38 years; she was the mother of 14 children, 7 living. They owned their house. With them were John, son, 22, Saraha, daughter, 23, and Wesley, grandson, 2, all born Iowa. The name pair, the German births and Franklin County fit John Peters and Sophia Herman, whose son Benjamin married at Alexander in that county in 1903 (S791). Benjamin, born 1881, is not in this household, and the census does not name him, so the match is probable, not proven. Frank Peters, 33, born New York of a German father, lived two households away; he is not stated to be their son.Cited on John Peters · Sophia Herman · Documents.
  6. S9861860 U.S. census — Grayson County, Texas, post office Sherman, page 8, 7 June 1860, dwelling 50. Ancestry record 35313138. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Probable A. J. Pardon, 43, farmer, born Kentucky, and Catherine, 43, born Kentucky, with M., 18, John, 12, and Sarah E., 9, born Kentucky, and W. J., 6, and Silvester, 2, born Texas. In the same dwelling: David A. Seaton, 25, born Missouri, and America A., 21, born Kentucky, with John A., 4, and M. E., 2. M., 18, fits Manuel, 8, and America A., 21, fits America, 12, in Jackson Parton's 1850 Whitley County household (S844); the spelling Pardon is also on China's grandson's 1939 certificate (S780). The parents' ages rose only six years between the two censuses, and “A. J.” is not expanded on any record read. The Texas births of W. J. and Silvester place the move from Kentucky about 1851–54. Also indexed as Ancestry record 35313136 (the same image).Cited on Jackson Parton · Catharine Parton · Timeline.
  7. S9871850 U.S. census — Ryegate, Caledonia County, Vermont, 13 September 1850, dwelling 174. Ancestry record 1151445. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026. Probable Bradley Morrison, 48, farmer, real estate $2,500, and Avis, 47, with Orange, 17, laborer, at school, James, 15, and Harriet J., 11, and Juliette Whitehill, 17; all born Vermont. Orange's age, town and birthplace fit Orange G. Morrison, born February 1832 (S975). The 1850 census states no relationships, so Bradley and Avis as his parents is probable, not proven. In 1860 Bradley Morrison, 57, lived next door to Orange (S982), where his wife is written “Annis”. The index spells the surname Marrison.Cited on Orange G. Morrison · Documents.
  8. S988Record of Appointment of Postmasters — Taylor County, Texas, pages 787–788, Potosi. Ancestry record 728860. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 28 September 2026.

Lindley (date not read). The register gives no age or other identifier. Potosi was the Bowles family's town, and his son William Anderson Bowles Jr. was only 14 in 1907, so this is probably the father; that rests on name and town only.Cited on William Anderson Bowles.

C., 1, born Alabama. The index gives her age as 26; the image says 21. The Georgia birthplace is only a ditto under her husband's, and the 1860, 1870 and 1880 censuses say South Carolina, so South Carolina is kept.Cited on Lucinda C. (Avery) Higginbotham · Documents.

Where we looked and found nothing

Records were reached through the family’s own Ancestry, FamilySearch and Archion subscriptions and through public archives; no paywall or CAPTCHA was bypassed. One false lead is worth remembering: the apparent “Proeger” in the 1950 Texas census is a Kroeger, an unrelated family with no nine-year-old boy in it. What is still being looked for is on the front page under What is still unknown.

Compiled for the Proeger family

Living adults appear by name and relationship, with the year only: no full date of birth and no home town on any page that search engines index, and a living person’s own page is kept out of search engines. Minors appear by name only — no date of birth, no birth year, no age, no school, no place, no address, no other identifying detail. A minor may be named and may appear in a family photograph; nothing further about them is published. Where it is not established whether someone is an adult or a minor, the minor rule applies.
