This is my great aunt. I have had no success in finding any traces of her in America after her arrival. Perhaps she married? or died soon after arrival?

Does anyone have her in their tree?

Peder and Hopkins, This is absolutely my family! Thank you so very much.
Do you have any information concerning any children in Astrid and Williams marriage?
Is it possible that Ellen is still alive?

Thank you Peder,
I have sent an Email to two of the persons on the list.
This is very exhiting. I just recently discovered Astrid by looking at the census you also pointed me too.
I had Tøger Schille and his family in written notes from my late grandfather, he probably did not know about them either, cause Astrid and Mathias is not there. Astrid is my grandmothers aunt.
I remeber that i several years ago asked my grandmother if she had any relatives in America. And she denied it rather fiercly.
I have asked my aunts and they had never heard about Astrid or Mathias Schille until I took the time to check my written notes against the 1900 census.
I wonder why they got deleted from the familytree..

Looked at this topic because of your recent post to your other Martin Davidson post and thought you might be looking....

Just in case you hadn't seen it here is a death record for Astrid Blair. Her father is named Tuger Schiller.
