I am trying to find obituaries for several of the children of Florian Altfillisch. Florian Altfillisch (b.1790-d.1860) came to Jackson County late in life (1856) and joined a grand total of 12 of his children who immigrated to America between 1852 and 1876. He is my great-great-grandfather and he is buried in the Spruce Creek cemetery north of Bellevue. Michael Altfillisch is my great-grandfather. I have yet to account for; his brother Johann,Margaret the wife of Johann and his sister Josepha. Josepha married Caspar Deppe and I have his obituary.
I went to the local FHL library and ordered the microfiche for the index of Bellevue newspaper obituaries from 1875 to 1985. That was a help, but no obituary for Johann, Margaret or Josepha. Can they be found in the Maquoketa newspapers ? The name gets spelled Altfilish, Altfilisch and Altfillisch. I belong to Ancestry.com and I am familiar with the census info
