Dwayne,

I've been looking at your database at Rootsweb since I saw your post about the Meyer/Rotert pictures, and I think our lines connect in several areas.

Ida Mae Rotert Lauf (7/12/28 - 11/24/04) was the daughter of George W. and Amelia Franke Rotert, sister of Louise Meyer and Herman, and is a cousin by marriage.

Anna Catherine Vehslage/Verhslage Meier Rothert is my 5grandmother. Her 1st husband was actually Harmon H. Rothert, both b. in Hannover and travelled to US in the early 1840's. They had 2 children, John H. and Catherine Mary both born in Louisville, KY. before Harmon died there in 1846. Anna Catherine married Johann F. Meier in Jeffersonville, IN and they returned to Seymour, where JF had been living. There they had Katherine, Louise and John H. Meier.

There's also a connection to Fred and Elizabeth Burbrink. My mother and grandmother used to play at their farm, as did the Meier girls. I haven't figured it out yet, but I think there may be a Burbrink/Smith connection -- another branch of the family.

If I can offer any additional information, please let me know.
