If you have a birth year and death, who did he marry, that would help me narrow things down.

I have one more source I can check.

Hi - I assume you're referring to John Herman in Saukville?
The Milwaukee request you said to contact the Archdiose, right? ;)
John Herman was born January 9, 1851 (of course, some records say 1853) and married Katherine Schreiner (Shriner) around 1875 She was born July 2, 1853
They died in North Dakota
him January 24, 1937 and her December 17, 1926

He is the first son of William Dickmann and Christina Bauer in Saukville.

Thanks a bunch!
Linda
