Posted on: Geiger/Kiger/Kyger Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/Geiger/249 Surname: geiger ------------------------- At the time of the 1850 census, my gggrandmother, Carolina Geiger, was living with her husband Joseph Hoffmann, a butcher, at 241 3rd St in NYC. The next entry in the census is for the following family: Henry Geiger,43;Amelia Geiger,24;Louisa geiger,23; Amelia Geiger,2;Charlotte Geiger,8/12;Philip Geiger,18. Henry and Philip are varnishers. I assume Carolina may be related to this family, but I have not substantiated it. Does any of this tie into your NYC Geiger research?
