I move around so much and I research other Meyer families a tiny bit just to see if they could be mine. What else have we to do? So asking me about that former post then is hard for me to answer. I am just not sure. I have run accross a few ameilia lately too? I am always looking into Illinois and Oregon for Meyer. Illinois Meyer pop around in the state so much. cook couty to some other and then off for cheap land. I ran accross some of Illinois lately and the name Steil popped out at me. YOu can believe I am interested. I will tell you Aida is good did you try it? Now here is another tip I just rediscovered. If you use google for a 'book search' you can read some of the books that the county seems to publish with biographies etc.Not just google but google book search. I saved some to my library late last night until internet shut me off. I am starting a blog for Meyer name with families also that are not mine. I just don't know, if I will know how to do a guest book. I hope to link to other meyer families. Now the thing is I will link to all those other Meyer families that I have had an interest in the past. Carry them along with me. so I will be looking at old message posts and old emails and eventually get there. I am blogging throught google and I am not sure exactly what others can do when not in gmail. I will run through it later and see what I can come up with. I have a huge interest in name August and minnie and amelia. I did see it lately again. and wondering if you posted at Meyer board and I saw something there. However I think it was a popular name and combination. Did you say lets see where in iowa was it Fayette or Franklin. I will review old posts and what ever and get back to you. One I am extremely interested in was the Meyer that had settled wi and mn and found they had gone to Illinois. there was a connection back with them to Behn. Oh yes in calhoun county iowa I did read that there was a august Meyer and the name Minnie comes up. You can read past and present Calhoun county Iowa through google book search. I will try your county. Not everyone let them be listed in those books. Yours show up on census.? The one I have in calhoun iowa was Henry Meyer who had married a schulz she died young. He was a pastor at Pomeroy His son also became a pastor. His son lived in thayer county Nebraska. They had daughter bertha and I forget the other. But there are at least four Meyer familly in calhoun county. Another one I have an interest in lived Illinois and there was an August and a Minnie Ellen who married a Nahnsen. Elmer or Emil. this family brings up the name Wolf and I think Mullin. However it could be greene county. I have another Meyer who lived Lohrville. william Meyer and his daughter was wilhelmina or minnie. She married Stolley. We do not have any August in that family. That one is the center of my blog. [I am working on only my third post so far, sorry] However, in Dahlenburg.jonasonline de under school scection of book of Charlotte Woodage there was mention of a Auguste going to boston. I had been searching for that family as well. I think the immigration time was late. Thanks sorry for the ramble and confusion so many Meyer intersts can cause.
