Georg Winter    husband of  2nd great grand aunt
b. 1811, d. after 1920, #2248

Birth 1811 Georg may have been born in 1811 in Germany1 but it seems more likely that
Birth 1819 Georg was born in 1819 in Baden Germany.2

Marriage 9 September 1831 Georg Winter married Katharina Elisabeth Feldman, who was 14 years old, daughter of Jacob Feldman and Salome Argast, 9 September 1831 in Helmsheim, Baden, Ger.1,3  
16 February 1853 A Georg Winter, 41 years old, came to the United States aboard the "Goethe" from Bremin and land at Baltimore on 16 February 1853. He was a weaver. This might be this George Winter. He came alone. Another version of this immigration gives two children. Needs some work.1   Do not believe that this is OUR George.
1870 In 1870 Daughter Sarah is in Morrison but could not find them.

 
Cen1880 11 June 1880 Georg Winter shows on the 1880 census for Mt. Pleasant township, Whiteside county, Illinois taken 11 June 1880. The index has George as 64 years old, a farmer, born in Germany and wife is Kate who is 60 and born in Germany. But in looking at the census I feel that this reads as George being 68 and Kate as 64. The handwriting is poor and blurred.4
