William Romer/Wilhelm Steinberg

lawgirl129 — 2009-04-23 18:05:15Z

Hi. My great grandfather's name was Wilhelm Steinberg but he changed it to William Romer when he came to the US from Germany or Hungary. My grandfather, Walter Romer, was his only child with his wife, Sophie/Sophia Romer. William then married another woman after Sophie/sophia's death. He resided in Bayonne, New Jersey at the time of my grandfather's birth. William was also known to box under the name of Little Yellow/Lil Yello. I was trying to see if I could get any additional information regarding him or at least my father's side of the family. My aunts/uncles/family have not been very forthcoming with any information that they have - the aforementioned is about it. If any one could help or knows how I can go about getting additional information/help, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. Cathy

Hemmelgarn family

RevJamesP — 2008-02-05 21:45:27Z

Dear Carolyn,

My name is Laura Loraine Hemmelgarn-Landess-Pranger (born 9-5-63). My father is Glen Martin Hemmelgarn, my grandparents were Glen Henry Hemmelgarn and Thelma Huth, and my great grandparents are Martin Henry Hemmelgarn/Ida Huff and Joseph Huth/Mary Agnes Cunrad.

Recently our son and his wife had a baby that was born with non-ketotic hyperglycinemia. This is a very rare disease that usually only occurs when families inter-marry. My husband (James Edward Pranger) and I have been married for 25 years and never dreamed that we were related, but yesterday I found that we were 4th cousins through the Huth line. I also see that both of our families have the name Cunrod (Coonrod, Conrod, Coonrad, Cunrad). You did not mention your parents name in the post on the roots web message board. Are you also a descendent of Glen Henry Hemmelgarn and Thelma Huth? If so, I am trying to find any information on the lineage of Mary Agnus Conrad. I can only find information that she was born around 1875-1878 and that she was married to Joseph Huth (b. 17 Dec 1872). Any information that you might have would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the help that you have already been on the website.

I can speak a little French but I do not know if it is enough to help with genealogy documents. If you have some I will look them over.

Another alternative is to use Bablefish.com and type the text you want translated and it will translate it for you.

Re: Anna Romer

belindalivingston60 — 2007-12-30 15:50:11Z

My greatgrandmother came from Alsace-Lorraine in the 1880's.Her first name was Anna. I know that she had one sister that was blind and in an institution. She had two brothers that were priests and worked on the famous clock in Strausberg that depicts Jesus and the twelve apostles.
Here is my problem. We know that by 1888 when she married my greatgrandfather George Bodenmiller she had a son named Frank. He was born in Union City Tenn. We do not know if Anna was pregnant when she came from Alsace, married before Frank was born or got pregnant after she arrived and never married Frank's father.
We do know that on her marriage licence her name is listed as Anna Roehmer. However, Kaiser is also remembered. Was her surname Kaiser or Roehmer? I need HELP!
It seems to me the only solution is to research both families in Alsace-Lorraine but I do not speak French and do not know how. Can anyone help?? Belinda

George Raymond Romer, Harry Albertina Romer, Ralph Romer lived in Fl

chipandlea — 2007-11-08 12:03:08Z

My husband's mother was Harry Albertina Romer (nickname when small as Tina) b 21 July 1912 Fernadina, Florida d 11 Aug 1997 in Holly Hill, Flordia (next to Daytona Beach). Her dad was George Raymond Romer who married Margaret (Maggie) Ann Hylick or Heilig. George's dad was Louie Lacey Holloway b abt 1900 d abt 1947 of a snake bite in Florida. She divorced Louie Lacey and later married Harry Johnson who died. We think Harry Albertina Romer's father was the George Raymond Romer b abt 1878 d abt 1957. His dad and mom were Reuben S Romer b 30 June 1852 d Nassau, Fl. He married Mary E Brown b 25 Dec 1849. His dad was James Carter Romer b 22 July 1821 Maine, USA d 12 Oct 1903 Maine, USA and wife was Ann B ?. His dad was William Romer b 25 Dec 1800 d 1882 and he married Carlotte Carter 27 July 1797 Maine, USA. William Romer's dad was Conrad Romer b 2 Apr 1770 Pennsylvania, USA d 1805. His mom was Elizabeth LaDue b 1755 New York, USA d 1817. Conrad's dad wad John Frederick Romer b 14 Mar 1750 Germany d ? and mom was Christian Heitler b ? d ?. John Frederick's dad was John Federick Romer b 1731 Germany d 10 apar 1784 USA and his mother was Anna Dorthy Miller b 17 Oct 1725 Germany d 13 Sept 1757 England. That is as far as we have gotten. If you have any other info please email it to deliaholloway@yahoo.com or post it. Thank you for your help.
We pray God blesses you in your family searches,
Delia and George Holloway
Please if you have any information that would connect his Romers or the Heiligs or the Hylicks please let us know. He didn't know his dad. His dad left when he was small and he knows little about his mom's family.
Any help putting this together for him is appreciated. We had a Surprise 70th Birthday party for him this past weekend. God is so good to us.
God bless you in your family search,

There was a child Susanna born 1756. Then a son John Adam born to Johann and Elisabeth in 1766. then a daughter born 1768. Adam is my direct line. ????????????

Re: Romer & Barth families of Neider-Olm / Stadecken - Germany

atlmainiac419 — 2007-10-02 14:51:54Z

Just for clarification... The correct spelling of this town is Nieder-Olm (rather that Neider-Olm, the i comes before the e) and pronounced Needer-Ohlm in English. The other town is Stadecken-Elsheim and they are both in the Mainz / Bingen area of Rheinland-Pfalz along the Rhein River. This is a beautiful area of the country with wineries and castles adn absolutely gorgeous scenery.

William, Henry, Jacob Romer or Rome Mammakating, NY

mcbears — 2005-04-23 02:50:39Z

In 1840 census, William, Henry and Jacob are listed with the last name Romer, all of Sullivan County, New York with the word Mammakating ( a town in Sullivan County?)

In 1850 William was a laborer, age 36 and said to be born in New York (altho some records say NJ). His last name is still listed as Romer. His wife Mary (Baker) is 31 at this census, born in NY. Children were William O. (11 years, b NY), Horace B. (8 year, b NY), John (6 years, b NY), Andrew P (2 years, b. NY), Mary E. (1 year, b. NY). Right next door is Jacob Romer, (William's brother?) age 39, born in NY. Occupation is Teamster. His wife is Francis, age 38, born in NY. His children are Electa A. (13 years, b NY), Clarrisa (10 years, b. NY), Mary E. (8 years, b. NY), Henry S. (6 years, b. NY), Emma P. (3 years, b. NY), Charles P. (1 year, b. NY)

In later censuses, the last name is listed as Rome.

Re: Correction on Peter Romer - should be Roome

mcbears — 2004-09-05 21:07:54Z

The older Peter Romer was originally Peter Roome. He was born in NJ and then moved to NY. He had 2 wives and several children from each, including my gggrandfather, William Romer (Rome later).

RÖMER RAMER ROEMER RAYMER Family DNA Project

JohnHRamer — 2006-12-12 03:27:43Z

As a RAMER/RÖMER/RAYMER family researcher for nearly 40 years, I have been very aware of the five major lines carrying these names (or who adopted them later) that were in PA prior to 1750, as well as significant lines in N.C. and KY that are thought to be somehow connected to these lines. To my knowledge no one has yet been able to demonstrate any relationship between any of these lines.

Further, as a researcher focused on the line of Philip RÖMER who immigrated on the ship Friendship of Bristol on 16 Oct 1727, I am unaware of anyone who has convincingly tied any of those lines back to their European sources.
We are anticipating such an effort in Europe starting this year.

Therefore, I am excited to report that we have initiated a DNA study with the intent of determining relationships, if any, between the 7 domestic lines mentioned as well as between any of them and lines in Switzerland and Germany.

We need at least one male direct descendant of each of these lines to partipate. A second participant would be fairly valuable as well.

Additional participants, whether with a proven relationship to any of these lines, or of a line not yet known to be related to any of the above are also welcomed.

Please contact me directly at: JohnRamer@sbcglobal.net for more details.

An immense amount of information could be generated if we all work together.
