Philadelphia - part 2
On the other side of my family tree, on my dad's side, the Buechele's came into the country vis ship passage in 1864. They quickly settled in Phildelphia, and set up a Boarding House called the Weeping Willow. Now, I don't have many records yet to back this up. It's family tradition at this point that the Buechele's had an establishment called the Weeping Willow, with a Weeping Willow tree out front. My hope is to find some city directories and see what comes up. I know that in 1880, the family was already in the Chicago area, making shoes. Not a large timeframe, but long enough to apparently have had a child, and my great great grandfather left his sister behind, who married the Sondregger's, of which I am still trying to find record of.
