Her parents, Jacob and Magdalena Geiger, resided in Riley Twp., Sandusky Co., OH. Both were born in Baden. Jacob is said to have crossed the Atlantic five time, bringing his bride-to-be with him on the final voyage. They were married in Philadelphia, PA, and lived there several years, having two children Henry [28 in 1860] and Conrad [26 in 1860], with the others born later in Ohio. Jacob died on 05 OCT 1865, at age 65, and Magdalena died on 21 NOV 1888, at the age of 80. Their children were: 1] Henry Geiger, b. 1831/32 in PA; married Mary Brown on 05 SEP 1865 in Sandusky Co., OH. Three children are listed in the 1870 Census. All are over 10 years of age , thus probably Henry’s step children. Moved to Clay Twp., Ottawa Co., Ohio, before 1870. He died after 1880 and before 1905. 2] Conrad Geiger, b 1834/35 in PA; married Sarah Cordelia Rogers on 31 DEC 1863 in Ottawa Co., OH. Apparently no children. Moved to Clay Twp., Ottawa Co., Ohio, before 1870. He died after 1880 and before 1905. 3] Catharine Geiger, b 23 JUL 1837 in Sandusky Co., OH; married Conrad Geiger (my relative) on 01 JUL 1860 in Sandusky Co., OH. Moved to Fulton Twp., Fulton Co., Ohio, before 1870. They had nine children, but only one reached adulthood. Maria E. Geiger married Lorenzo D. Price on 27 SEP 1882 in Fulton Co., OH.. 4] Susan Geiger, b. 1838/39 in OH; married Edward L. Richards on 12 APR 1860 in Sandusky Co., OH. Four known children. Moved to Clay Twp., Ottawa Co., Ohio, before 1870. 5] Jacob Geiger, b. 1840/41 in OH; married Angeline Sophia Hinkley on 06 SEP 1866 in Sandusky Co., OH. Apparently no children. Still in Riley Twp., Sandusky Co., OH in 1880. Moved to Mississippi before 1905. 6] Maria Sophia Geiger, b. 1843/44 in OH; married Lester C. Sprague on 14 SEP 1862 in Sandusky Co., OH. Six known children. She died after 1880 and before 1900 7] Mary Elizabeth Geiger, b. 1845/46 in OH; married Thomas D. McIntyre on 16 FEB 1871 in Sandusky Co., OH. One known child. Moved to Florida before 1905. 8] Caroline Geiger, b.1848/49 in OH; married James N. McIntyre on 12 DEC 1870 in Sandusky Co., OH. Moved to Michigan before 1905. 9] William Geiger, b. 1851/52 in OH; Not found in 1880 Census. Died before 1905. Whatever living descendants there may be, it appears they must descend from the daughters of this family.
