Herzog and Martineau Family Genealogy Home Page

My name is David Herzog I am from Iowa City, Iowa and I am researching the following surnames: HERZOG, MARTINEAU, BIRD, GRANT, GARRETSON, APPEL, SMITH, KITRICK, BURGOYNE, RICE. Feel free to contact me with information or questions.
I am especially interested in contacting others researching the following: Antoine MARTINEAU, Sr. b. 4 Apr 1822 in Vaudreuil, Quebec, Canada, son of Jean Baptiste Martineau, Jr. and Elizabeth KINSELER. I am also interested in contacting others researching Simon Fredrick Herzog b. 22 Dec 1854 in Harkemissen Germany and who lived in Marshall and Jasper Counties in Iowa. I am interested in anyone with the HERZOG or APPEL surname who lived in Marshall or Jasper County, Iowa.

My Brick Wall problems:

I am trying to prove that Zenas was the son of Samuel BIRD and Rhoda HAWLEY. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
