Lou - The Orleans Parish Birth Certificate records on the Orleans Parish GenWeb site shows her parents as David Withmeyer and Josephine Brasholz. However, It is interesting to note that there are 4 siblings and on one of them the mother is listed as Josephine Hanle. Here is the hyperlink: http://files.usgwarchives.net/la/orleans/vitals/births/index/nobiwiwn.txt The marriage records on the site shows that David Withmeyer, age 26, married Josephine Brasholz, age 19, on 6/14/1888 as documented in Vol. 17, p. 736, of the Orleans Parish Marriage Certificate records. Neither are listed as being born in New Orleans, though before 1870 the records show that people did not regularly register births with the public records (and not always afterwards).
