Wilhelmena "Minnie" was the wife of Civil War Veteran, PVT. Andrew Ambuhl. Andrew had emigrated from Switzerland in 1854. Having been in America only 7 years, he willingly went to war to fight for the Union. He served in Co. C, of the 2nd Wisconsin Cavalry from 1861-1865.

Minnie emigrated from Prussia in 1874 or 1875. In 1877 she married Andrew, and the couple settled in Wisconsin. By 1880 they had started a family and were farming in Buffalo, Buffalo Co., WI.

+++Many thanks to Contributor Joe Kastantin ++++ for the following information:

"Andrew Ambuhl first married Maria Kaisinger in Winona Minnesota in April 18 1868. They had five children:
Otto Ambuhl died April 12, 1869 age 2 months.
Anna Maria Elizabeth Ambuhl born February 6, 1870.
Johann Ambuhl born September 2, 1871.
Margaret Ambuhl died November 12, 1873 age 1 month.
William James Ambuhl January 8, 1876 age 8 months.
Andrew's wife, Maria, died in 1876.
Andrew married Wilhelmina Klaviter April 26, 1877. The newlyweds had four children:
Emil born 1878
Angelina (Lena) born 1882
Henry nicknamed Hanky born 1884
Andrew born 1886
I have church and civil records as sources along with Wisconsin, Minnesota and US Censuses."

My research notes that Andrew and Minnie had five children: Elisabeth, John, Emil, Angelina, and Andrew. All but one lived to adulthood. The Ambuhl family moved to Winona Co., MN and may have engaged in farming in Homer, but by 1900 they were settled in the city of Winona, MN, at 476 E. Mark St.

Andrew died in 1916, and Minnie went to live with her married daughter, Angelina Johnke. Minnie died in 1928.
