I have no information further back than Joseph Gonter, though family tradition says it was three brothers that came from Europe; Mathias and Ottomar could be brothers if the story is true. I appreciate you taking the time to find this information. I'm almost giddy with excitement, and I know my father and grandmother will be interested in this as well.
