Hi Linda
Thanks for the reply. I know the area you mean - I think. They are still
using that cemetery and it's between Oakwood and the old Trott school. Am I
correct?
Meanwhile, could you check the information you have for Henry Lauer who died
on July 27, 1897 and according to the death certificate was buried there.
Also, I have no knowledge of his wife Elizabeth's death but believe it was in
1890, if you could also check for her I sure would appreciate it.
Now, her family were Rieger's. If you see any of them or of the Regenhardt
family, that information would also be helpful.
If this is too much to ask, I will be in Niagara Falls at the end of June and
could check your records myself, if you are still open. I understand that
there is a problem with the library budget and perhaps no-one really knows what
are going to be happening by then.
Thanks again sooooo much.

I guess you mean Annette Burgert's books: her master index shows:
LAUER Christian immigr. 1733 from Wolfersweiler
LAUER Jacob 1737 also
LAUER Michael 1737 also.
I don't have her Wolfersweiler volume.
Index also shows
LAUER Johann Theiss immigr. 1753 from Westerwald
LAUER Henrich 1753 Westerwald.
I do have this book, so will send scans of 3 pp. and title page --
they're separate because otherwise I find my machine hanging up.
