1864 - son Philip Linderborn is born
Philip married Amanda Getz Smith.  They are my paternal 3rd great grandparents, you can read more about them here - http://heathersgen.blogspot.com/2011/04/linderborn-arrival-in-america.html

bt 1872 - Son Henry Linderborn is born
Henry is found in the city directory for Camden NJ, along with wife Frances.  In 1897 he is also listed as an umbrella maker.  He appears to go by the name Harry in some places, and his wife is often listed as Fannie.  In the 1930 census they are in NJ, Harry is listed as a bookkeeper for the railroad.  The 1930 census tells us Henry was age 26 when he got married, and that his wife Fannie was born in Pennsylvania.

Abt. 1873 Son  John Linderborn is Born
John is found in the city directory for Camden NJ in 1902, 1906 & 1908, occupation is carpenter.  In 1902 a wife named Mary is listed with him.

In the 1920 Census there is an "Uncle" named Thomas Kane, age 60, living with them.

1874 - Daughter Anna Elisabeth Born

Name: Anna Elisabeth Lindeborn
Birth Date: 13 May 1874
Event Type: Baptism
Baptism Date: 19 Jul 1874
Baptism Place: Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
Baptism Age: 0
Father Name: Heinrich Wilhelm Lindeborn
Mother Name: Elisabeth Lang
Denomination: United Church of Christ
Organization Name: Salem Zion United Church of Christ

A DNA connection leads me to believe this could possibly be the Elizabeth Lindeborn who married George Washington Smith (1871 - Bef. 1930).  I don't know though - and in all documents I found on Elizabeth Lindeborn Smith, her birth year is given as 1876.   Very consistently.  I have no explanation for the 2 year difference, and no proof they are the same woman.

1875 - Son William Linderborn Born

William married Elizabeth Kelly, and is found in the New Jersey directory in Camden in 1901, like his brother Philip, he was an umbrella maker.  William's  draft registation gives his birthdate as 25 AUG 1875  & his marriage record shows that he married Elizabeth Kelly on 18 Jun 1894 in Camden, New Jersey, USA

Although older sister Anna Elizabeth, and younger brother Herman Frederich, appear in Salem Zion United Church of Christ records, I cannot find William there.  Census records and his draft registration list his birthplace as Maryland.


1876 - Son William Heinrich Born

Henry William Lindeborn married Fannie Lorena Gosline in Philadelphia in February 1897

1878  - Son Herman Is Born

1882 - Daughter Emma Catherine Linderborn is born
"Emma" is the only daughter young enough in the 1885 census - so I suspect that her name is Emma Catherine, or something similar, but it is possible that there was a daughter named Catherine who died before 1885.  This record tell us that Henry's wife's maiden name was Long.

1893 - Son Russell Philip Linderborn 
Born July 4 1893
Der Deutsche correspondent., April 18, 1914, Page 3, Image 3

In 1920 he lived on South Battery Ave, in Baltimore MD, married to May, with a 4 year old daughter, Dorothy.  (Dorothy married a Meshaw and died in 1995)
His occupation was Pipe-Fitter for a chemical company.

The SS death index tells us he died December 1961, but I do not know where he is in 1930 or 1940, I cannot find census records for him.  He might be right in Baltimore, which I suspect, just under an odd spelling.  City directories seem to show that he did not leave Baltimore MD.

1897 Son Alexander Linderborn was born
Born 20 Aug 1897
Marylands Military Men tells us that Alex served in WWI from 1917-1919,was wounded, and later died of pheumonia.
He died at Camp Sherman Ohio, February 27 1919.  Age 20.
The stone simply says "Lindenborn". Cemetery records list both Alexander & Phillip, no dates given, as buried in that plot. Phillips death notice states he was buried here.

died in World War service under honorable conditions.

Russell would have been the oldest son, and he would have been right around 20 years old.  But in 1913, Philip was closer to 50 than the 40 reported here.  The address in this article is the same as that found in the Baltimore directory for him and his family that year.  Russell got married in April of 1914.

Cedar Hill Cemetery records show an Alexander Lindenborn is also buried in this same plot - I am assuming this is his son, who died honorably in war in 1919.  There are no other markers or stones at this location, and no dates are listed in the Cedar Hill Cemetery Records.

Research:
St Paul's Episcopal Church
Both Philip and Amanda's wedding, and Howards's baptism, can be found in the St Paul's Episcopal Church records.  It's odd that Howard was baptised at age 5, and I can find no other records for any of the other children being baptized there.  A LOT of Smith's appear in the records, I would guess this was possibly Amanda's parents church?
