I wonder if the Margarete you write about is my great grandmother. Sounds likely doesn't it? She would have had a son and daughter, Helen and Nickolas of Warjasch. Your explanation of the last names may be why I never could find Magarete and Helen on the Ellis Island records. I have never heard of her grandson Nick before or a sister of Helen. If you are able (and willing) to post a picture I'd be very grateful to see it. There used to be a family bible in the house I grew up in but it disappeared at some point. Too bad, I've been told it had some family history recorded in it, written in German. Still hope it will turn up someday in someone's attic. I will try to get copies of a few pictures of Helen and my grandfather Nickolas but it may take time. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.scheer/56.2.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Helen's father's name was Michael Scheer but I have seen it spelled as Schur and Schar. Her Mother was Margarete Nussbaum, who emigrated to the US with her 12 year old Grandson, Nick in 1923 or so. This was sometime after the death of her husband. You can find her on the Ellis Island site as Schur. There was also a sister to Nick and Helen. I do not know her name but I have recently found some information that Helen's name may have been a nickname for Magdalena. This Magda Walter (widow) from Varjias/Warjasch was escorting a child to the U.S. in 1912 to his Father, Istvan or Stefan Godo and he is listed as her Brother in Law. Perhaps the sister died in Europe before her husband could send for her? I have a picture of Mr and Mrs Scheer and Helen and her first husband Mr. Walter and two sons from Europe.

Born on 11.10.1944. After he left California, he lived in Eugene, Oregon and around Portland Oregon--where he is believed to still reside.

My grandfather came from Varjas, Hungary, which is only a short distance from Temesvar. In one of my grandfather's photos from that year, he is in a group of 4 men. One of the men is referred to as Mr. Nussbaum. I have attached this photo and hope you are able to retrieve it. Cathy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Our ancestors came to the US about 1849 so we believe if we are related it would be with Julius his father. Do you have any more information on Julius's family such as brothers or parents? Our ancestor is Phillip H. Scheer born in 1828 and he married Salome Herr born in 1838. We thought they were both born in Hunspach Soultz, Alsace Larraine Germany, but we could only find record of Salome being born there. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
