Vincent Stauss was B. July 1827 in Germany/Prussia, he left Antwerp 
August 1857 and arrived with #1 wife Anna Wolff at the Port of NY 
Sept. 17, 1857, when they left Germany/Prussia, they had young son 
Josef Stauss B. 1857 in Germany. Carl and Gertrude Wolff ages 52 and 59, 
Gertrude Wolff being 59, were with Vincent Stauss and Anna Stauss. 
Anna Stauss died after 1865 and Vincent Stauss is found in Davenport, 
Scott Co., Iowa obtaining marriage license, no marriage 
record has ever been found. Vincent and Eve (Rapp) Stauss stayed in 
Davenport, Scott Co., Iowa 
in the Buffalo area for a few years, had first child Ottelia "Delia" Stauss 
B. 1869 in Iowa, then they left and went to Marysville, Marshall Co., 
Kansas~~where Vincent may have joined up with an older brother 
by the name of Gustave or Arndst Gustave or A.G. Stauss who lived there 
first. Gustave Stauss had been born in Germany in 1825 and came to the 
U. S. in 1855 only two years before Vincent. 
In 1870 Census in Kansas Vincent Stauss is found under the spelling 
in the Kansas Census Index 
as Winsan Starss. In his household at that time was he and his wife Eve 
and children, Mary Stauss b. 1859 daughter of Vincent and #1 wife 
Anna Wolff Stauss, Peter Wolff Stauss B. 1862, Elizabeth "Lizzie" 
Stauss B. 1864 and Franklin Joseph Stauss B. 1865....and also his 
children by #2 wife EVE Rapp Stauss.....Ottelia "Delia" Stauss, 
Paul Stauss, Joseph Stauss and then the family moved back to 
Davenport, Scott Co., Iowa the Buffalo Community and Agnes Stauss 
was B. 1876. Vincent Stauss then sold his land and the family moved to 
Paris, Logan Co., Ark. where they made their home until they died. 
This is only a brief display of the research made on this family. 
Vincent and Eve Stauss are both buried at St. Joseph's Catholic Cemetery 
in Paris, Logan Co., Arkansas. The grave or whereabouts 
of #1 wife Anna Wolff Stauss has never been located. Graves or 
death records for Peter Wolff/Carl Wolff who came on ship with Vincent 
and Anna and Gertrude Wolff was in Vincent Stauss's household in 1870 
in Kansas and age 65. I have not found his grave or death record in 
Kansas or in Arkansas or in Iowa. Peter Wolff did own land in Marysville, 
Marshall Co., Kansas. 

I have extensive data on the Vincent Stauss family who arrived in 
Paris, Logan Co., Arkansas in 1877until this death in 1912 and his wife 
Genevefa (EVE) Stauss Died 1905. I can be contacted by email at
