Surnames: MEYER, MEISCH Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/oh0.2ACEB/1765.2.1 Message Board Post: Hi, Thanks for the response. I assume that my MEYER family emigrated from Germany. They are listed in the 1880 census with Alexander and Mary Meyer as parents of sons, John and Alex, and a daughter, Louisa. John was born in Germany and Alex was born in Michigan. Hence, I assume that they emigrated between 1868 and 1872. I have no knowledge of any previous ancestors to Alex and Mary. I've been trying to track down any of their current descendents who might have some knowledge of their European ancestors. Thanks again.
