Johana Balzer b.23Oct1866 in Germany (Possibly Prussia) married August W. Quedeweit abt.1888 and lived in Dayton, Montgomery Co., OH and had 9 children (Fred, Anna, Albert, Emma, Lewis, Minnie, Marie, Johanna[stillborn] & 1 other who did not survive to 1900). It appears likely Johanna and a Female relative Henrietta Balzer (Mother?) immigrated together on the Weser from Bremen, Ger to Baltimore arriving Aug 1887 as that matches exactly other Census and other info. Another Balzer couple, George and Florentine/Florantine Balzer married in Germany about 1896 and immigrated abt 1897 and lived in Dayton in 1900 and 1910. I speculate all these Balzerās are related in some way. August Quedeweit was born in (phonetic spelling) Tielset, East Prussia, Germany. I have been unable to locate where Tielset actually is to date. It was so common for German immigrants to marry those from the same area. George and Florentine state for the 1910 census they were from Prussia, Germany.
