1. Father John H Timphaus (Jan Timphaus)
I�m searching for Informations about John H Timphaus who arrives on the
ship Ohio in Baltimore at the 27. of Sept. in the year 1869!He arrives with I think his 2years younger brother F.A. Timphaus! These
informations I got from Werner Honkomp and his immigration list!Furhter I know that the birth date of J H was the 02.August 1843 and his
death was on the 20th july 1902! He was a priest in Wathena, KS!On F A I have only one information. I think he can be the man who organized
the Pittsburgh Catholic Congregation in Tipton, KS in 1875!Can anyone help me?
Regards
Jan Timphaus
