Mark, My ggg Grandfather was Edward Winter he came to the US in 1851 when he was 6His parents were Anton Winter( died in German) and Marie Hund.Edwards first marriage 1868 ( St. Louis Mo.) was to Ameila Zorn she died in 1871 they had 2 children Charles 1871 and Ameila 1869.
His second marrage was to Caroline Merkel they had Herman 1878, Louis 1881, George 1882 Oscar 1885 Laurance 1886 Ollie (or Olive) 1888 and Joseph 1888.
Edward had 2 brothers Joseph and Andrew I believe they both had sons named Edward but I have not made the connection yet. He also had a sister Frances that married Louis Merkel Carolines brother. Thaought these 2 families might be connected. Good luck Michelle
