I was also able to find them in the 1910 Census living in Brooklyn Ward 28, Kings County, NY. I also found them in the 1905 New York State Census living in Brooklyn. That's where it ends. I know my Grandmother, Rose, the daughter of William and Bertha was born abt. 1890, so the family must exist before 1905. Yikes, it's making me crazy. I am so grateful for your help.

I've tried looking for your family with Röessler, Roessler, Rossler, Roeffler, Ro*, adn *sler. I've also looked for WM., Wilhelm, William and other forms of William. Also, for William no surname and wife Bertha. And have found nothing. You should try taking their location from the 1905 and 1910, find the area in 1900 census and look page by page. Good luck.

I am fairly sure this is the family I am looking for. I say this because, I know my Grandmother had a brother named Albert (who my older siblings met many years ago). I am so confused. I found the same family on the 1905 census for the State of NY. But prior to that....NOTHING. Any suggestions? I appreciate your help!

At http://www.germangenealogygroup.com/ there is a William Rossler married to a Ema Meier in 1879. Ema and William are the parents of Lillian Rose born in New Jersey - could this be your Rose???

I have hit a wall Searching for my paternal Grandmother, Rose Roessler Parents (according to NY 1905 census) were William and Bertha Roessler. Siblings, Lizzie, Bertha and Albert Approx. year(s) of birth 1888-1891 I have done searches through the NYC Municipal Archives (yrs. 1886-1890). Also, State of NY Department of Health (yrs. 1889-1891). No luck there. I am wondering if maybe Rose's father was married prior to Bertha, and may have had Lizzie and Rose from that marriage. Any help is much appreciated. Thank You, Tracey Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I noticed on the NYC.gov website that they do not hold death cert's for Brooklyn past 1948. Where would be the appropriate place to order the death cert? > I am trying to order this for my sister-in-law. By law is she required to order it instead of me. Not quite sure. >
