Susanna Walsh 1851-1928 (both from Tyrol) children: Anton J. Netzer 1878 Henry J. Netzer 1881 Mary 1882 Franz J. Netzer 1884 William F. Netzer abt. 1887 (married Christine abt. 1919) Rudolph J. Netzer 1889 Fidel (perhaps known as ANTON to you?) left his wife, Susanna Netzer (nee Walsh) in LaCross. Fidel moved to Boise Idaho. He died there in 1921 and was going by an alias 'Fred Necer' according the obituary I have for him. I also have a death certificate from Idaho. William Netzer is better known as uncle Bill to our oldest living Netzer. I don't have a date of birth for Bill Netzer (possibly your grandfather) because the birth certificates were hit and miss in the late 1800s. I actually have a photo of William (Bill) and Christina (Jonas?) Netzer. As well as some of other siblings and also of their mother, Susanna Netzer ORig ************* We happen to have two William Netzers with some big coincidences. Who knows, it's happened to me many times! want more? e-mail me.
