Author: QueenMagisty Surnames: Meyer Reid Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.meyer/3333/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm looking for information on my Great-Great Grandmother. Her name was Kathryn or Katherine, I'm not 100% sure on the spelling. I thought it was with the "y" until I recently found the second version with the last name Meyer and the birthdate of 15 OCT 1881 in "St. Johan" (Sankt Johann), Germany. All I knew previously was that she was supposed to have come over to the United States on a ship from Germany when she was approximately two or three-years-old. Once here she married Elmer Reid (who may have passed away in 1954) and they had five children (in order of birth): Forrestine Muriel Reid (born Muriel [possibly Murial] Forrestine Reid, but she switched her first and middle name in adulthood) on 01 JUN 1907, Elmer (Fredrick?) Reid (on 05 MAR 1909?), Blythe Reid, Gladis Reid, and Cassie Reid. The family also lived in California (I think Sonora) for quite some time. Thank you in advance for any information! ~Camille May~ Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
