Several Breese villages in the Goehrde area get confusing. I think this is not the one refered to by my families' church records from Nahrendorf.

One of Herman Meyer's grandsons wed in Pochantas county, Iowa .


Herman Meyer senior is the gentleman lying on Hammock next to small child.

Grandson of Herman Meyer senior from Oldendorf wed in Iowa. Herman William Meyer 11 wed in Pochantas county, Iowa in December.
Pochantas county Iowa is near Greene and Calhoun county in Iowa where many settlers from Oldendorf lived. I thought it would be fantastic, if he was to live there as well. But he is not. He still lives in Minnesota. This is Herman Meyer 11 who married there.
Congratuions. Herman. He actually has had a nick name for many many years.

Note: For many years Herman senior was known as Herman Henry Meyer. I hesitate to address him by that name. Though those living would know who I was writing about. He was actually Heinrich Friedrich Herman Meyer. Born 1881 not 1883 like once thought.
The ships immigration passenger list has his name Herman spelled different. Which makes me wonder about spellings of the name. However Nahrendorf church records indicate Herman spelling as correct.

Happy Holidays, everyone.

Entangled web threads of Family - Im LÖWE-Wald (Langfristige Ökolokische WaldEntwickling)


Im LÖWE-Wald (Langfristige Ökolokische WaldEntwickling)

Ohh what tangelded webs our families weaved.



It does seem that our families were connected in various threads; weaved together like a spiders web before they even came to America. Then after many years here we attempt to look back at their ancestors and cannot fathom all the entwining thread stringed together of their families. As they say "Oh what a tangled web we weave" No they did not attempt to deceive us. But it sure seems like it sometimes.
I guess, I am thinking of the eight colonists who attended the Farnhamville church who came from the Nahrendorf church. Two families of ... Seil, Luhmann, Saucke, Naefke, Meyer, Schroeder, Ahrens. [Lusmann?] [Mosel ?, Dohrman ?]
