Notizen zu dieser Person

All the children of the Wilhelm Hall family were born and reared in Sinzenich, Germany. They attended the Catholic school there and met and married their spouses. The second oldest daughter, Anna Cecelia, was an exception. Since the Hall's oldest daughter Petronella was a deaf-mut, the second oldest girl took on her responsibilities. It appears that Anna Cecelia was sent to Cologne, Germany for school, possibly one of the convents. It is possible that she was even studying to be a nun. It was here that she learned the skills of being a mid-wife. The story has it that this is how she metKaiser Fredrick Wilhelm III. Anna Cecelia had a child, Margaretha, before she was married. It is said that the father of the child is Kaiser Fredrick Wilhelm. There is nothing to prove that this is true but at the Catheral in Cologne, a baptism record is supposed to exist for Margaretha Cecelia Hall, who was born 1835. "Family history has it that his eldest daughter, Anna Cecelia, was workingas a maid for the Kaiser Frederich Wilhelm III, and became pregnant by him in 1835. After Frederick III died in 1840, his son and successor, Frederich Wilhelm IV, apparently did not like the threat of an illigetimate heir, as he and his wife never had children. It is said that troops were sent to Sinzenich to the home of Anna Cecelia, who was now married to John Dreikosen, and told them they had3 days to leave the country, as they wanted the family and her illigetimate daughter gone. Perhaps his brother William I was more to blame, as he would be next in line to the throne if Freiderich IIIhad no children. They were required to leave through Antwerp, Belgium, so there would be no record of leaving from a German port. So apparently this is why Wilhelm and his wife came to the US, although some of their children were already there. There is, of course, no proof of this story, and many families make claims of having some royal blood. Short of some proof such as DNA testing, the storyremains folklore." (from Hall family records) The Hall’s and Dreikosen’s sailed on the ship “Louisiana”, and they arrived on July 3, 1849, although I have not confirmed this. There was another Hall family (Pierre) traveling on the same ship at the same time who may have been related, although they cannot be located in the 1850 or 1860 US census. John and Anna Cecelia Dreikosen came to America in 1849 with her parents. They settled in Ashford, Wisconsin township in Section 21 where they owned 80 acres. After John's death, their son John William Dreikosen took over the farm. Anna Cecelia moved to Marathon, Wisconsin to live with her daughter.
