...........................................................................
COMMENTS: All names are the names listed on baptismal records. In parenthesis is the name most commonly used and was frequently used on official records

Hermann and Johanna arrived in the USA about 1855
 
Please Note: On Child # 1,  Carl Wilhelm's Baptismal record it shows the surname as Heinsohn, should be Venghaus Record #25-36..........Child # 4 Edward Heinrich baptismal record  shows surname as Vinkhaus Record #55-62.............Child # 5 Wilhelm Heinrich Baptismal record shows surname as Vinckhaus Record # 67-40, also no other records found, he is not listed on the 1880 census and his mother had 3 children that died according to the 1900 census, probably he is one of them.............Child #6 Johanna Frederike Henriette Baptismal record shows surname as Vinckhaus Record # 80-42, also no other records found, she is not listed on the 1880 census and her mother had 3 children that died according to the 1900 census, probably she is one of them..............Child # 7 Heinrich Johann Herman Venghaus, Baptismal records show DOB as 7/3/1870, death certificate shows 7/4/1870, it appears he changed the spelling of his last name to Vinghouse sometime in the 1920's.............Child #10 Marie Venghaus, DOB on death certificate says 1875, however 1900 census says 1876, I went with 1876, otherwise there would only be 4 months difference in age with Fred...... ......Child # 11, based on the 1900 census there is another child that probably died in infancy or very young, but I have not found any records concerning this child
