Robin:

A quick check at ancestry.com found the following:

1900 Census Wyandot Co. Richland, Fred born Nov. 1848, Sidoni born Sept. 1853 and Max born June 1889. They have been married 24 years, she is the mother of 4 children, 3 living. They arrived in 1888 and Fred has been Naturalized.

1910 Census Wyandot Co. Richland: (This family is indexed as FROMMELER) Fredrich, age 62 and SIOLONIE, age 57, married 34 years, mother of 3 children, 3 alive, son Max age 20. Their arrival in US is 1888 and he has been Naturalized.

1920 Census Wyandot Co. Richland: Fred, 71 and Sedonia, 66. Arrival is given as 1886 and it states they were Naturalized in 1891.

I did not find any Troemmlers in 1930.

There is also the WWI Registration for George Max: He gives his birthdate as June 22 1889, states he was born in Findlay, lives in Findlay with his wife and 4 children.

Also checking the message boards at Ancestry:

There are several references to Troemmler -- most from Sedonia's REISSIG family. There are obits transcribed there for both Max and Sidonia. Max's name was actually George Max and Sedonia's name has many variations including Sidome and Sidone and everything in between. Information says that they both were members of the Presbyterian Church in Findlay. It also says the Reissig family was from Mittweida, Germany.

Things to try: Get a copy of the Naturalization records for Fred -- it may give his town in Germany but I suspect it may also be Mittweida or somewhere very close. Also look for a baptism record in the Presbyterian Church in Findlay for George Max. This record may list the birthplace in Germany of Fred and Sedonia. Also: check the Family History Library to see what films they have for Mittweida, Germany. They may have records of marriages in the right time frame. If you have not done so already, I would also get the Death Certificates for both Fred and Sedonia (Fred died on January 1, 1929) --- that may also give you a town. I do suspect that they were married in her town as the custom was generally to be married in the bride's church. Sedonia had 3 brothers and maybe by following the Reissig trail you may find the Troemmlers.

Hope this helps --

Pam
