My ggrandmother was Lena BEYER a daughter of Ernest BEYER.. My grandmother was 12 years old when her mother, Lena, died and not much is known about this side of the family. >From what I have been told, Ernest came from Germany in the late 1800's with his 1st wife, who died when Lena was a child. Lena's aunt, Augusta (her mother's sister), came over from Germany to help raise Lena and married Ernest. I believe Ernest and Augusta had the following children: Ernest, Otto, Henry (Edward H), Anna H, Emma (Mary E.), and Rose BEYER If anyone has any information on this family, I would happy to hear from you. Best Regards, Jim
