I am just starting my search and was wondering if the name Herman Scheer appeared in your history. All I know right now is he was born in Berlin Germany in 1892,came to the USA date unknown, married a Sophia Knable, and died in Cincinatti Ohio on November 27, 1896. Any information you can share will be appreciated.
