So Margaret Weiler, based on her age and the census, did marry Nicholas Ott. And Anna took out a marriage license with Jacob Diederich, and didn't marry an Ott. She was just the sister-in-law to an Ott because her sister married Nicholas, correct? I saw Nicholas's family in Richfield, Ohio - Lucas County in 1880 (see below). Many people came to the area for work -- either at the steel mill or shipyards. 1880 Census Richfield, Lucas Cty, OH: Father John Ott, age 55 b: Prussia Wife Emma Ott, age 39 b: Prussia Nicklaus, age 16, b: OH Matthias, age 15, b: OH Catharine, age 14, b: OH Mary, age 13, b: OH John, age 12, b:OH Anna, age 7, b: OH August, age 5, b: OH Sophia, age 4, b: OH Jacob, age 2, b:OH All of Nicklaus Ott's brothers are married in 1910 and 1920, mostly in Lucas Cty, and had been for a long time.

Deb, I live in Richfield Center, Lucas Co., OH!!! I know lots of Ott's here, but had no clue they might be related in anyway to my Gedert family. This is getting more and more interesting! Virginia PS: My younger daughter's friend is an Ott who was raised near the Toledo Express Airport but now lives in Jerusalem Twp. in Lucas Co. Perhaps he's somehow related... I'll really have to check this out when I meet his mother! ----- Original Message ----- From: "NatureGem" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 10:22 AM Subject: Re: [OHLORAIN] Weiler-Ott Divorce > So Margaret Weiler, based on her age and the census, did marry Nicholas > Ott.

Wow!! Thank you so much! What a goldmine of information you have provided. How did you find so much in so short a time? What's interesting is that I have photographs of my gr-gr-grandparent's headstones (John and Anna Gedert) and their grandson, Andrew, in the Old Holy Trinity Catholic Cemetery near N. Ridgeville, with a note that they were taken by Anna Ott. But, we remember my mother talking about Anna Weiler. It will take me some time to digest all the information you've sent and take it to our reunion next month. Again, thank you!
