The only info I had on my GG Grandfather Frederick Ulrich BLASER is that he was born in 1859 Bern and had a sister Mary. He married Anna RASI of Zurich (born 1867) and they settled in Oregon, USA. I jsut searched the familysearch.com site. The only Fred BLASER that has an 1859 birthdate, that wasn't married to someone else, or that didn't die too early was Fredrich BLASER b: 17 May 1859 in Langnau Im Emmenthal, Bern to Ulrich BLASER and Verena BRECHBUEHL. Besides the date, the proof/coincindence is that Ulrich was Fred's middle name, and he named one of his daughters (in Oregon), Verena. In searching for Ulrich BLASER, I found hundreds in the same town, but finally came across Ulrich BLASER b:15 Feb 1814 in Langnau to Ulrich BLASER and Elisabeth SCHUPPACH. He married Verena in 1850 and died 23 Nov 1864. Verena BRECHBUEHL was born 12 Jun 1827 on Lauperswil, Bern, and died 27 Sep 1882. They had Anna Elisabeth, Verena, Ulrich, and Fredrich BLASER (b:1857, d: Mar 1859). Fred Ulrich BLASER was born May 1859. So, if anyone has more information or a connection, please let me know.
