    1. Re: wehr family
    2. Hi Nancy, I am not sure about my WEHR's. I have a Fredrika Wehr b. 1856 who married an Unger. I find her widowed and living with her daughter, Freida, and son-in-law, James Nagala and children in the 1920 Census. Also, listed with them is Fred and Oliver WEHR, cousins, son of Christopher WEHR b. 1868, brother to Fredrika WEHR UNGER. There is another brother, Augustus WEHR b. 1870. They are all found in Hamilton, Butler County, Ohio. Their sister, Pauline R. WEHR b.1861, married Henry WESTERMANN in Cincinnati. They are my father's maternal Grandparents. Then to make you more confused. Elizabeth WEIGAND/WIEGAND married William NAGALA. Elizabeth is the daughter of August Otto WIEGAND and Katherine MEYER. They are my father's paternal Grandparents. I know the WEHR's are from Germany. They give conflicting dates of immigration. So I find them in the 1900 census and on from there. I have a picture of some of the WEHR's, UNGER, WESTERMANN, WIEGAND and LEGER. I have been trying to piece the family together for some time and have just discover some of the facts when I started hunting, again, for them. So I am not sure if we connect or not since I am not back as far as you are and then seem to have come from Germany in about 1860's but I know you cannot count on information in the census unless you can back it up with another record. I hope you don't mind but I am sending this to the list as well and hope someone knows what I don't. Take care, Judy Wiegand Minihan
