"... Johann Rudolph Tholen (my great grandfather) immigrated to the US and settled in Golden, Illinois. He was a carpenter, like his father. He married the daughter of another earlier immigrant from Riepe, Heinrich Harm Franzen, who was oneof the original pioneer settlers in Golden. Johann changed his name when he got to the US and used a more "American name" of John Henry Tholen. In the 1920's he and his wife and many other members of their family moved to southernCalifornia and stayed there the rest of their lives. John and Anna Tholen were my mother's grandparents.
