Thaddeus Yager born Dec. 14,1805 in Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany, and Catherine Gertrude Fisher born June 1, 1809 in Hesse-Darmstadt, Germany. John D. Yager was a professor in Germany. The family came over in 1843. One of their children, Maria (Mary) Barbara Gertrude Yager was born on the ship while enroute. Her birthplace is listed as New York. I have much information on this family, the children, grandchildren, and so on. John M. Yager and Anna Marie (Nancy) Brier were my father's great-grandparents. He happens to be sitting next to me as I write, up for a visit from Florida. My dad was born and raised in Newton, Illinois. He is "Corky" LeRoy Thomas Yager, son of Ray and Gertrude Yager of Newton, Illinois. Anna Marie Nancy Brier was born in 1839 in Ohio to Margretha Rothin Brier ( born in Germany). Father's name not known at this time. Anna had an older sister named Catherine born in 1836 in Darmstadt, Germany. Anna also had a younger sister named Elizabeth born in 1842 in Ohio. Margretha Rothin married Michael Dhom eventually. On the 1850 census, 13 year old Joseph Gottlieb Dhom was listed with the family, Michael Dhom was head of household. I have more info. Let me know what you want and I'll gladly share what I have. Sincerely, Joni Yager Wallace
