    1. [MEYER] Otto H Meyer Immigration Records?
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Meyer, Getzschmann Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/5519/oh0.2ACEB/1693 Message Board Post: Looking for info on GGrandfather Otto Herman Meyer. In one census(1900) shows immigrated in 1856, 10 years later (1910) says 1853. According to family, he was born 1844 in Germany, which is what census it shows in all census records I have found. Family says he had a daughter, Bertha, by his first marriage (name of 1st wife unknown). His 2nd marriage to Martha Getzschmann, 10 Jan 1889 as recorded in Douglas Nebraska, resulted in 2 children (Walter Otto Meyer b.Nov 1889 in Fort Crook, Sarpy County, Nebraska and Martha Mae b.Oct 1893). This Meyer Family lived in Sarpy County Nebraska. Have most of the info for Walter (my paternal grandfather)and decendents, very little for his sister ( m. A J Schultz in Nebraska(?) and they had 2 daughters, Faith & Pansy). Find "brick walls" any earlier than 1900 census info on Otto! Any suggestions on where to look next would be appreciated.
