I am looking for information on the ancestors of Gerhard G. Fast. I have the following:
Gerhard G. Fast
b. 1837, S. Russia d. 23 Dec 1915 Henderson, Nebraska
m. Anna Ratzlaff b. 20 Jun 1844 d. 18 July 1906
children:
Heinrich (Henry) G. Fast b. 18 Sep 1867
Anna Fast b. 9 Apr 1868
Gerhard (George) b. 1 Dec 1870
Johann (John) H. Fast b. 12 Apr 1872
Bernhard Fast b. 31 Aug. 1873
Peter Fast b. 29 Dec 1874
Kornelius Fast b. 9 Jun 1876
Jacob J. Fast b. 7 Jan 1878
Isaac Fast b. 6 Oct 1879
Susanna Fast b. 2 Mar 1882
Katharina Fast b. 23 Sep 1885

The family came to the U.S. on the Switzerland 24 Jun 1879, Isaac, Susanna and Katharina were born in the U.S. Gerhard was a blacksmith. The family lived for at least some time in Henderson, Nebraska, later moving to Oklahoma near Fairview where my grandmother was born, the daughter of Kornelius. Her branch of the family later moved to Reedley, California. I do have the "Brothers Keeper" program and database but it has been of no help in determining who Gerhard's parents are. Any information would be appreciated.

I also have available quite a bit of information on the Voth family available for those who are researching this line. My information here begins with Hans Voth and Maria Flaming both born about 1800 in Prussia.
