How nice to find somebody with my name. I am Max Jager but i don't live in Alaska, I live in Holland. My granddad's name was Jan Jager. Sounds literally familiar.

Re: Emel William Frederick Jager

nancysanders86 — 2009-02-23 03:24:21Z

try researching the name of the german lady witness. You will be amazed sometimes where those witnesses will lead you. ninety percent of the time they are a mother or grandmother, sister or cousin, aunt, etc... I am finding that women were listed by their family name instead of married name when listed as a witness on documents or baptism records in the catholic church or the dutch records that I have been researching. I am looking for an elisabeth Jager born circa 1755 married Georg Fischer possibly St. martin zu bigge, westphalin (sp)

Jager in Crailsheim

giggynboro — 2008-10-25 11:15:04Z

I am looking for information on the family of Augusta & Wilhelm Jager. They had a daughter that came to the US in 1963. They had a son named Karl or Carl who was born in 1932 and died in 1973 in Germany. Karl was married to Maria Buttner (I think) and had children named Margitha, Karl, and Rudy. Augusta was born in 1906 and died in 1979. Wilhelm was born in 1910. The family lived in Crailsheim, West Germany. I lost contact with Wilhelm after the death of his wife in 1979. I have never been able to find any information since. Any help would be most appreciated.

I don't have a website, but I could digitize the photo and send it as an attachment. But since it's against the rules to send attachments on these mailing lists, you'd have to give me your email address.

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

Rachel_Groessel — 2008-07-02 22:10:37Z

Is the photo somewhere that I can see it? I'm pretty new at this.

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

donnamendes57 — 2008-07-02 21:53:36Z

That's okay. After doing this research for about 10 years, I've developed a pretty thick skin. Besides, your shocking tidbit really helps to explain other parts of the story. It's priceless to me; I don't think such an explanation would ever have been revealed through the usual documentary sources. And if any of my relatives knew, they certainly didn't talk about this!
I find it incredible that your family was so close to them. Do you think you might be able to identify which boy in the photo is Jimmy? He looks like he was about 8 years old.
My daughter would absolutely kill for a dentist who gave candy today! No wonder Dr. Jager made such a lasting impression!
Cecil MacPherson was married 4 times. I descend from his first marriage. Dr. Jager was his third wife; Jimmy and Elizabeth were my grandmother's half-siblings. So I guess that makes them my half great-uncle and great-aunt. (Plenty of those tongue-twister relationships in my family too!) Several years ago, I was lucky enough to locate descendants of Cecil's 2nd marriage. I don't believe he had any children with his 4th wife.

So sorry to be the bearer of bad news. It really is hard to reconcile with the pleasant, somewhat reserved guy, who even rented a room in our house for a while. I don't remember that much about his mother, but I do recall that she gave me caramel suckers at the end of my appointments, and at some point I inherited her office desk. So, would they be cousins of yours?

Abram P. Yager (b. 1833; d. 1893) who married Hannah Amelia Kinne (b. 1841; d. 1914)? Abram's father was likely Solomon Yager.

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

Wow, I never knew anything about the husband/father. James (Jimmy) was a close friend of my parents over the years, though it later turned out his life had a dark side. It seems that I saw a newspaper clipping with the headline "Pornographer Murdered". I thought he was just a mild-mannered computer programmer or something.

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

Rachel_Groessel — 2008-07-02 14:28:57Z

Her son's last name was Jager also. I believe he was at the University of Chicago with my father (and mother) sometime around 1951, and was killed probably some time in the 80's. Unfortunately, both of my parents are dead now, so I can't confirm the details, but I wonder if the last name might have been spelled Jagar. Is the daughter still living? I remember a picnic at her house with a lot of children when I was very young, but don't remember her name.

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

Rachel_Groessel — 2008-07-01 16:24:43Z

She was my dentist when I was a small child--mid 1950's. Her son, James went to school with my father, and was later murdered.

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

donnamendes57 — 2008-07-02 14:08:31Z

Wow, what a surprise to hear from one of her former patients! She must have been quite a memorable woman.
I've recently met some of Dr. Jager's descendants (through her daughter). They also think that her son James MacPherson was murdered, at a young age.
All we have on him is a childhood photo taken with a friend. We've figured out that he was born circa 1932 and was alive in August 1952.
Do you know the name of the school he went to with your father? And maybe the time frame?
Any recollections you care to share would be very much appreciated!

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

donnamendes57 — 2008-07-02 15:44:53Z

Hi,
Thank you for your quick reply.
That's a great tip about the University of Chicago! I'll contact them to see if they have any records. What did your father study?
Elizabeth Jager's daughter was also named Elizabeth; she married a Mr. Dorrity, had children, and died in the 1990s.
So you actually went to the Jager house? Wow!
Dr. Jager was married to another dentist, Cecil MacPherson, but she evidently kept her maiden name. They divorced at some point before 1952, and he seems to have abandoned the children. So it wouldn't surprise me if, as you say, they called themselves Jager.
Why do you think James was killed in the 1980's?

Re: Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

donnamendes57 — 2008-07-02 19:46:03Z

Oh my.
This is terribly sad. Talk about skeletons in the closet. I imagine your parents were very shocked when they discovered his shadow life.
When added to the other tragedies I know of that surround Cecil MacPherson, I now feel even more uneasy calling him my great-grandfather. He was at the very least a negligent parent.
Not sure I want to reveal this information to my new-found relatives just yet. But on the other hand, it could lead to some long overdue healing.
In any case, thank you for sharing.

Dr. Elizabeth JAGER

donnamendes57 — 2006-09-13 15:50:15Z

Is anyone out there researching Dr. Elizabeth Jager, who had a dental practice in Chicago circa 1945? I believe she is connected to my G grandfather, Cecil Alexander MACPHERSON. Willing to share info.

donnamendes57 — 2006-09-13 15:50:15Z

Hi,
As far as I know, our families are not connected.
My Dr. Jager was born in Norway circa 1890, then went to dental school in Chicago and settled there.
Sorry, but I have no other information which would help you.
