Searching for Vetter Family

I have family members with similar names (in MI) and am searching for origins.My father does not have information prior to his great grandparents Fred C. Vetter (or similarly)(1859-1938) m. Catherine Umholtz (1862-1952).The family arrived in the US early, possibly pre-civil war.Known siblings Fred C. (Frederick?), William H. (1862-1943), Frank D. (1866-1944), and a sister, possibly Caroline E.Catherine Umholtz was Pennsylvania Dutch.All resided in Niles, MI but parental origin is sought.
Fred C. had 2 sons, one being Albert C. (1884-1925).
The family pretty much all settled in Niles, MI so I don't think our info is consistant but you might compare.
