I am looking for further information on Edwin William Donner. His death certificate list him as being born in Hamburg Germany on April 13, 1846 and having died on Aug. 11, 1914. It lists his father as Gustave Donner from Hamburg Germany. His mother was listed as unknown. He married Caroline (Carrie) Knobelock from Tobin, Perry Co., IN about 1879 or 1880 and they moved to Cincinnati, OH. They had 3 sons and 3 daughters - Elizabeth, Frederick William, Gustav Charles, Alice Amelia, Edwin Robert, and Hazel May. Family stories mention that Edwin William came to the US with a brother and that the two were separated in New York and never found each other. If anyone has further information on Edwin William, his brother, their father Gustave Donner, or any ancestors I would be interested in sharing information.
