| Bio and Links |
I am a native of Louisville, KY and currently reside in East Texas. I have been doing family research for over 20 years. My maternal great grandfather anglicized his german surname Haubrich to Hambrick. I've always known that I had a great uncle 'Charlie' who changed his last name from Hambrick to Charles M. Hamburg and played professional baseball. I first found him on the Deadball Era web site by Frank Russo. I then found him on Find A Grave, also submitted by Mr. Russo. I seem to have a connection to baseball, as I am a distant relation to the Hillerich's of the Louisville Slugger fame. My ggrandmother, Mary (Hillerich) Vogel, was a first double cousin to J.F. "Fred" Hillerich, father of John A. "Bud" Hillerich, who made the first bat fashioned for an individual player, Pete "The Old Gladiator" Browning (as legend tells us), thus the birth of the "Louisville Slugger".
Other family surnames I'm researching are Jansen, Bosse, Mathies/Mathias/Mathews, Wenzel, Hess and Vogel. Many more too numerous to mention.
I'm enjoying working with this site and have added all of my family members that I've found so far. Most of my Ancestors are buried in St. Louis Cemetery, Calvary Cemetery, Resthaven Memorial Park and Cave Hill Cemetery, all in Louisville.
If anyone finds an error on any of my contributions, please don't hesitate to inform me and I will be happy to correct it. Families are for sharing, so feel free to use any photo I post in your own family genealogy, just please provide photo credit when uploading to genealogy websites. Please use the Suggest a Correction feature to make requests for modifications or transfers. Transfer requests should typically meet the Find A Grave guidelines, but I do make exceptions. I would rather a memorial be with 'family' than not. I do not do this for the 'numbers'. I do not transfer my own ancestors.
A genealogy tip for those posting obituaries. When listing an obituary and sourced to a particular newspaper, the obit should always be written exactly as printed. Any errors should be sited as a 'correction' at the end of the obituary.
A very special thank you to my very special Olin E. Hartley for sponsoring my parents memorials.
Thanks also to a special findagrave friend Diane Miller for sponsoring my maternal grandparents.
I appreciate all who leave tributes for my family members and please forgive me if I don't get a personal thank you out to all individuals. I am retired, but stay busy with family research and try to keep up with the chores that beckon me daily. I leave tributes when I can, but find it a task to keep up with my own family sometimes. Not enough hours in the day, but so thankful to have each day and the friends I have made on this site.

The info I had was from her Jefferson County death record, so I'll leave it to your discretion as to how to describe it. | | | Karen Thomas

All I have is a section number. Location: Sec. 17, very back of the section at the line where section 17 and 16 meet. Very easy to find with this info. I have also posted this info on the photos on their memorials. Tommy is buried right next to his parents. His stone just about touches theirs. Their stone was causing the shadow on his, that's why I retook it. I have a list of names for photo request with no grave locations for this cemetery. I just look around and get lucky finding these people. If people would email this cemetery for a grave location they will email them maps or they can call them for free. If I go to them they will charge me a fee because I am just a "grave finder". I had one request for this cemetery and they emailed the guy all of the information and then he emailed it to me. It was very easy once I had all of that information. Thanks. Happy Holidays to you.

Thanks for the info. The video producer contacted me and asked permission to use my photos in the video. I don't feel comfortable adding the text of the newspaper article to the memorial due to copyright issues but I will include the web address for the article and video. Also, I will link the parents' memorials to the brother. | | | Mosbey-Kreisle

Of course, use the marker photo; I so appreciate that you asked!
After all, how could I refuse a fellow Kentuckian? Born there, and lived there for over a half-century, including two stints in beautiful, friendly Louisville...several years during the 1960s, then again during late-1990s through early-2000s for over 5 years.
I was pleased to photograph the marker for you. Thank you for giving me the opportunity.

Thank YOU, for making her page so interesting so I could learn about her too. I actually put the grave photos up today, that's why I contacted you.Added by Rachel on Sep 07, 2012 12:17 AM | | | | [View all messages...] |
