      "...my GGG Grandfather is Georg Johann Weth, born 16 Nov 1796 in Schleerieth, Bayern, Germany. Georg was married to Margarette Muller, born 24 Apr 1796 in Ettleben, Germany. They we married 8 Jan 1816 in Eckarthausen, Bayern, Germany and had eight children. Georg (an Inn Keeper) died in Germany in 1844 and our family history says that Margarette (Muller) Weth sold their Inn and went to France with her five youngest sons. After getting passports, she and her five sons left for America that same year assume that to be 1844). The youngest of their children is my GG Grandfather Andrew Weeth (name changed through immigration). Margarette bought property in IL, sold it, then moved to Sarpy County, NE."
