(4)U.S. Census, Kansas, Doniphan County, Burr Oak Township for 1870, 1880, 1900. (5) Kansas Agricultural Census Doniphan County, Burr Oak Township for 1875, 1885, 1895. (6) Tombstone for both parents in Smith Creek (Zion Church) Cemetery, Burr Oak Township, Doniphan County, Kansas. (7) Death Certificate - Missouri, Buchanan County, St. Joseph, Anna LIECHTI #15914 - E. LIECHTI informant. (8) Thanks to Kari LIECHTI in Colorado << cml48@earthlink.net>> and Hans MINDER in Lauperswil, BE, Switzerland, for finally knocking down our brickwall by discovering the link to the hometowns, places of citizenship (Heimatorte), in Switzerland. The LIECHTI Heimatorte was the village of Landiswil. Birth and marriage records were recorded at Biglen\\\'s Reformed Church. The KÜPFER\\\'s Heimatorte was Freimettigen with the birth and marriage records at the church at Oberdiessbach. Hopefully their civil records will be located at the Kreis Burgdorf Office since the Johannes KÜPFER family lived in Hindelbank which is near the city of Burgdorf.
