General Notes: Husband - Nicholas Theobald

---

The Theobalds were for many generations farmers in the Rhine Province, and were devout members of the Roman Catholic church.

He was born about three miles from the village of Winderbach. He inherited a fine farm, but sold this when he married, and bought a piece of property in the town in which his wife lived. In 1852 he emigrated to the United States, with his wife and children, and settled at Wellsville, Allegany County, New York, where he bought a farm, on which he lived until his death.
