Hello, I am looking for GESER (and other spellings like GEESER, GESSER, GEISER, GIESER and so) in Montana. I have a native German immigrant named Benedict Geser coming 1849 into the U.S., married 1852 in Milwaukee a Barbetha Prior/Prier and had the children Carl/Charles and Carolin with her, was proprietor of the Kossuth House there till 1864, then proprietor of the NorthWestern House in Chicago till 1867. No further informations about him (and his family) thereafter. I assume they moved westward ..... and found....from the 1881 Canadian census. Chas.
