  Family History Researcher	Hello to all , thank you for your great support. Giving you the background story of this search might help for a further result. Soon after WW II an American soldier showed up at the Gorges family here and introduced himself as a descendant of Matthias Gorges. Mail -contact as kept for a couple of years but then it broke off again. Now 50 years later the present generation is trying to find the American cousins again. As Matthias Georges (with that spelling) settled in Chilton , Calumet,(1880 census), it might be an idea to search him there. I have already checked the Calumet website http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~calumet/calumt.htm with no result. Another info I have, checking the 1880 census for Chilton I found Peter Koster with his wife Catharina and a son Joseph. Peter Koster and Catharine were Matthias Gorges parents-in-law. Only from the census I found out that they had emigrated, too. So perhaps with your help overthere it might be possible to catch the Gorges again. thank you and sincere regards, Ursula Ursula Buchholz"
