Do you live in the area? As always, I would help someone with the California death, marriage and birth index because I pay to be a Premium member. ( There are limitations on years available). I, in turn, love all the help I can get from Cincinatti, Ohio on my surnames Neckel, Ratterman, Zulsdorf, Schiesz, Felix to name a few! Thanks, Denise Ratterman Jackson I did some more looking, found the family on the 1920 Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH census. You probably already know that, right? I did not follow any posting that y'all might have been doing before so if I missed something, sorry. I looked at length for immigration records for Albert/Susan; I used variations on their being from Europe, Hungary, Germany, also a range of 1901-1905 for immigration even though the 1910 said 1903. Got kind of frustrating cause I did find others but I did not find them & according to the 1910, they'd married ca 1898. So I decided on looking for them in 1920, see if there was other information given for them there that might help. And, there was. They still did not have children. But, interestingly enough, the 1920 gave a different immigration date: 1895, then said they'd been naturalized march 1900. So that's pretty clear why I could not find them in immigration records == looking at the wrong years. I don't have time right now to look further for them (just spent a while trying to find them for 1900 census -- did not and tried variations of their first & last names; sure they must be there since they immig 1895) but later when I have the time I'll try immigration records again for ca 1895, see what comes up if anything. Good luck w/your hunting! Hope your info turns up through someone. Too, if you have additional information on the couple, anything you have not posted before, it might be helpful to post that to the list. Have a good day! Pavla Chandler Texas

Hi, I've seen the name Ratterman on this list a few times and remembered neighbors of my family by the name of Harry and (I'm drawing a blank on the wife's name) and daughter Rita Ratterman. I believe there was one or two sons. I don't think they were living at home at the time. This was in the late 1940's when I was a child. We lived in Cincinnati in the suburb of Collage Hill. They lived on Saranac Ave. I was curious if they were any of your family members. Joan Williams, Miami, Fl.
