Life story

Johann Joseph Frick married Anna Hegnauer, a daughter of Peter Hegnauer and Anna Berri of Igis, Graubünden, Switzerland, in June 1865; the marriage was entered at Igis and at the neighbouring parish of Zizers.1 Their son Arnold was baptised at Igis a few days after the wedding and died the following winter, and their daughter Judith was baptised there on 11 December 1870.2–3

The family later went to America and settled at Burlington, Iowa. When Judith married William Fredrick Schaley there in May 1893, the record named her parents as John Frick and Anna Hegnauer.4 His own birth, emigration and death have not yet been found.

Research notes

  • Sources: FamilySearch index entries only (Swiss church records and an Iowa marriage); no images have been viewed.
  • Origin: The marriage entry at Zizers suggests a tie to that parish, perhaps his home; the indexes give neither his age nor his parents.1
  • Leads: the Zizers baptism register for a Johann Joseph Frick born about 1830–1845; the 1880–1900 US censuses and Burlington city directories (as John Frick); Des Moines County death and naturalization records.
  • This profile is part of the Hegnauer one-name study, as the husband of Anna Hegnauer.

Working notes

  • John Frick; husband of Anna Hegnauer (H0400); m. Jun 1865; of Burlington, Iowa
