'Augustus Theinert immigrated from Marklissa (Silesia), Prussia in 1853, arriving in New York City on November 30, 1853. He became a naturalized citizen on October 23, 1874. His birth date on this document is September 18, 1831 … and Theinert is spelled Thaunert.'

'His death certificate is dated Jan. 20, 1904. He was buried in Middletown,CT - his youngest daughter lived there. In your original info, it shows a contact in Middletown as 'Mrs. Anna Briggs', Informant. I am not
sure in what context informant is used. His daughter was originally married to a man by the name of Slade. Now perhaps he died and she remarried. Or, Anna Briggs is a married daughter. In any event, I have not yet found info
on Anna 'Slade or now Briggs'.'

The German Evangelical Lutheran church - In 1859, when the Protestant German population of Pittsfield was about 400, arrangements were made by a portion of them for devine service in their own language. These services were first held in private houses, and with occasional visits by clergymen from New York. But in April, 1859, Rev. Augustus Grotrain, a learned and able minister of Albany, accepted a call, and organized the German Evangelical Lutheran Church of Pittsfield. The town subsequently granted a pleasant site in the corner of First street burial-ground, where the church was erected, at a cost of $2,274.00 and which was dedicated September 14, 1865. There present pastor is Rev. John D. Hagar.
