Possibly this is a misspelling of Weimar. Weimar was the capital of the duchy of
Saxe-Weimar which is in the present state of Thuringia.

> According to my GGGAunts death certificate she was born in Saxony, Weiman,
Germany. This makes no sense to me. On census she always lists her place of birth as
Saxony and her parents always list their place of birth as Weimer. The surnames are
Bergman, Leiberecht, and Seibert. It could possibly be a grape growing area as that was
my GGGGgrandfather's profession once he immigrated to Cohocton, Steuben, NY in the 1850's.
