See notes for historical information Abraham Ringer and wife Alberdene (enumerated as Albert de Ringer, female) lived in Breton, Washington, Missouri in 1850. Next door lived Conrad Norwine, wife Mary Norwine, son Henry, Henry's wife Nancy, and thier children. Abraham is listed as a stone mason, and Conrad as a farmer, though some notes on Ancestry.com state that Conrad was a rope maker also. Conrad lists his birthplace as Germany, as do his children Alberdene Norwine Ringer and Henry Ringer, both on the same page, but other documents tend to support a birthplace of Missouri, although they claim German ancestry. Abraham lists his birthplace as Maryland, concurring with our records. From the records we see that Conrad was married once before, and the couple had one child, but his wife died shortly after the child was born, and he remarried Mary Bische. It appears that his daughter was left with friends or relatives in Germany when he emmigrated to the United States, because her subsequent marriage was located in Germany. A pedigree on Ancestry.com contains the following note: Conrad Joseph Norwein and Anna Maria Bische Nerwein traveled by merchant ship (the trip took about 8 months) sometime after their marriage in 1805. they were met by the brother of the wife, Albert Bische, in Philadelphia, PA before traveling on to Missouri. Once in Missouri the received some Spanish Land Grant property near St. Genneviene County, in Missouri.
