Since family was found in Batavia in 1870 I am hoping that someone can tell me where to get census of 1875 or do a look up for the names below. I am hoping someone has access to this info. I am presently laid up with back problem again The library here - ( almost a 200 miles round trip drive) only has the Federal census, and the FHC is gtting ready to close until late Sep't. (which is anothr long ride, 80 mi. r/t) I am looking for information on GENESEE COUNTY WESTERN NEW YORK-BATAVIA MESSNER, Jacob/Jakob approx age 50 -farmer- b. Bavaria,Germany MESSNER, Franciska approx age 47----wife----b. Bavaria, Germany also a daughter Messner, Elizabeth- b. NY age abt. 23.. SHE HAD BEEN A SERVANT WITH TRIPP FAMILY IN BYRON SHOWN ON THE 1870 CENSUS.... ALL AGES WOULD BE FOR THE 1875 CENSUS. None of the family found on the 1880 census.and do not appear again until 1900 living in NJ next to Messner, August , b. Germany 1853 ( son of Jacob and Franciska) I think Jacob may have died by 1880 and Franciska moved in with another family but that's only a thought. Possibly they moved to NYC but not found there either in 1880......and only Frnaciska and daughter are found ( as widows) in NJ in the 1900 census, along with August and his family. It's what happened between tht's a complete mystery. I did send a letter off to The German consult for information as to where to find birth and marriage certificates, for Bavaria. Unfortunatly they wrote back in German and I cannot understand any of it. I am waiting until I can make a copy and bring to someone for translation. Thank you to anyone who can help in discovery.
