From Dan Buehler (View posts) Posted: 4 Oct 1998 6:00AM GMT Classification: Query Surnames: Hansler, Hunsler, Schirrey, Kuster I am researching my grandmother Mary Hunsler who arrived in the US about 1881. At least in later years, her surname was Hunsler but in various records I have also seen spellings of Untzler, Huster, Hansler. I was told she came from Gelsenkirchen, Germany and lived in Braidwood, IL (Will County) shortly after coming to the US. Since they probably came in through Chicago, perhaps there is a match.
Mary was 12 yrs old when she arrived. She came with her older sister, Anna, and her widowed mother Christiana (maiden name Kuster).
Family lore says that they came over on the same boat with the John Shirrey (or Scherrey) who was also widowed and that John married Christiana and his son Anthony married Anna. Descendents later moved to Lawrence County MO and Ft. Smith Arkansas.
Please let me know if any of this matches.
