I did a search for mothers with the maiden name of Mettman and found three kids born to an Anna Mettman in Campbell County. Robert H. Hater born 2/25/1915 Elmer H. Hater born 9/4/1916 Jerome G. Hater born 12/17/1920 This would appear to rule out Anna as the mother of Gert or Ralph Mettman. Kentucky death records show no deaths of anyone named Mettman or Tegenkamp between 1911 and 1929. The Northern Kentucky newspaper index shows nothing under Mettman and I found nothing searching the Kenton County Library's Northern Kentucky Genealogy Databases. The only other place I can think to check would be the cemetery records to see if those records will identify the family or identify the funeral home that handled the burials.
