My intrest in the Moskop Family History

I have been researching the Moskop/Moskopps for about 10 years now. I thought I would do a blog to share my research for those cousins who are interested. I have traced the Moskops back to Germany so I have listed pictures and discriptions of the places in Germany where they have come from. Some day I hope to go visit Germany and see these places for myself.

The farthest I have been able to trace back on my direct line is my 5th great grandfather Joanni Moskopp born about 1740 in Kaerlich, Rheinland, Preussen (Germany). His son and Grandson were also born there. His grandson Conradus Moskopp came to the USA in 1852 on a ship called Florida. He lived in Illinois. He died there in Madonnaville, Monroe co Ill. in 1854.

Charles son oh Johann "John" Moskop was born in Rubennach, Kolbenz, Germany in 1849. He is listed as infant on the ship manifest. He
 resided in Ill. and Arkansas. On the 1880 census he lived in Mitchie, Monroe co. Illinois and on the 1910 census he was in Randolph co ARK.

In 1889 Charles had a son Walter Moskop born in Ark. whom had a son Jack Moskop in 1919 in Marked Tree Ark. Jack is my grandfather. He and his family including some brother
and sisters and their family moved to Phonix AZ and raised there familys in AZ
