Crouse/ Harber/ Mayer Indiana
Hello,
I am in search of any letters, correspondence, artifacts or information pertaining to Maria Magdalena Mayer/Maier/Mayers/Meyer (Born 18 July 1827- Death23 Feb 1897) and her two children (Harmon) Karl Hermann (Born 5 Nov 1851- Death 8 Mar 1923), and Kosmas (Born 27 Sept 1855 -Death 21 July 1915). Her brother Fr. Jakob/Jacob Mayer was a catholic priest in the US and sent for them. They emigrated from Mühlheim an der Donau (Mühlheim on the Danube), Kreis (administrative district): Tuttlingen/ The Black Forest, Kingdom of Württemberg in July 1859 aboard the SS Bremen, and arrived at the Port of New York. They eventually settled in Sheldon (now Yoder), Pleasant Twp. Allen Co. Indiana. Maria eventually met and married John Harber. Karl Hermann and Kosmas changed their surname to Krouse and list as their father Ferd. Krouse/Crouse/Kraus. No other mention of him exists. Any help regarding Ferd. Crouse or other information would be appreciated.
