Er hat eine Beziehung mit Mary Elizabeth Ferrell.
Kind(er):
All information comes from Chuck Lingg - 1999
Information on the family page is from 1850 & 1860 SC census for St.Luke Parish, Beaufort District of SC. St Luke Parish is a geopolitical subdivision (sim. to a county) Alois is the youngest brother of Nicholas and Joseph Lingg. "Five brothers emigrated, from Switzerland", to Amsterdam and arrived at the port of Philadelphia on/abt Oct 1, 1816. All
were indentured for 4 yrs as payment for their passage.
Reference quotes from the 1899 published article by Wm. Altrogge and comments shown in the Nicholas Lingg (Alois' eldest brother) profile.
The 1830 census of PA lists an Alois Lingg (pg #012 of the Philadelphia Co, Cedar Ward. Apparently he lived near his older brother Joseph. He would have been approx. 20-2 5 yrs old at census time. This is the Alois Lingg that is listed in the 1850 SC census as "age 40".. The 1850 SC census lists his occupation as "baker". The 1860 census lists his occupation as "Hotel keeper, baker and grocer". Personal estate valued at $5000 and real estate at $2000 (Quite affluent for that day and age). Have not been able to obtain any data after the 1860 SC census to date, although I saw a listing in the 1870 SC/GA census that shows a "Mary Lingg" (Alois'widow). Info(K.Marsh); indicates that Alois and Mary had 9
children. Milton Ferrell, who was living with the Lingg's at the time of the 1850 census, was a younger brother of Mary. Quoting Kathy Marsh, re: Jas per Co SC genealogy: "We know the Ferrell family had a property named 'Ricesh ire' near present day Ridgeland. The Lingg family owned an inn in Grahamville and Alois Lingg (1810-1869) was a baker. Alois married Mary Ferrell around 1840 and they had 9 children. Mary was the daughter of Isaac and Jane Ferrell of Riceshire. Mary Ferrell had at least 2 brothers, Henry and Milton, both who married and had children, as well as several sisters we can't trace".
Note:Grahamville and Ridgeland are 2 small towns approx. 20 miles west of Beaufort, SC near interstate 95. (K.Marsh thinks Alois' given names may have been "Alexander Alois" but no archival documentation has surfaced to support this. Dr. med Joseph Schurmann, Chairman of the Luzerner Genealogical Researchers who did a search for her, did not uncover any
Linggs with a given name of "Alexander") In a copy of the 'Minutes of the Small Council of Lucerne, of May 13, 1816 pp241-244', his name is spelled 'Aloys'.
'Voegtli-Lingg' chart does not show anyone with these given names. Year of birth is estimated fr om 1850 SC census records (records uncovered to date seem to suggest that he is actually Joseph Max. Alois Lingg b.1805). None of his children have given names that are the same as any of his siblings/relatives from Switzerland; suspect that they were given names common to his wife's family.
Special Note:
This 'Alois' Lingg is just one of 4 offspring of Joseph Lingg having the given name of Alois. They are:
-Joseph Alois Ludwig (b.1791)
-Joseph Caspar Al ois (b.1802)
-Joseph Maria Alois (b.1805)
-Aloys/Alois (b.1810)
Additionally , there was Francis Joseph (b.1797) and Joseph (b.1799): ie, a total of 5 with given name of 'Joseph'. This duplication of given names within a family, was common practice for that area and time. Another custom was for a person to take on the given name of their godparent(s). Also prevalent was the custom in Germanic families to give all children in the family the same first name . In any case it is difficult to guess as to
the final name they adopted. One has to rely on identification through a recorded date of birth or other archival data. In the above tabulation, it is reasonably accurate to say that 'Joseph--/Alois--' were quite in demand as godparents. Latest review of exist ing records/refernces shows a high probability that this 'Alois' is 'Joseph M . Alois Lingg b 2/02/1805.
