    • Additional information from "Inhabitants of Wil, Zürich, Switzerland and Surrounds":

      14. Okt. 1807
      Martin Ritz, Oswalds von H.W.
      Barbara Hilpart von da

      Michel Hangartner von H.W.
      Elisabetha Ritz Joh. Meyers Frau von Eglisau

      Note From Frances M. Angst - Robertson:
      In the Appanoose County, Iowa Cemetery records there is an Elisabeth Angst listed as being buried at the Hardin Cemetery in Washington Twp. Born Sept 8, 1807 Died Sept 18, 1881. On the stone along with the dates it also shows Wife of Jakob (Our Mother). In 1881 or 1882 Jakob and his brother went back to Switzerland. When he died his house keeper stated he was the husband not the widower of Elisabeth. I haven't found anything to really prove she did or didn' t die in Iowa.
