I imagine this is a long shot--but.My ggrandfather, Henry F Meier and wife Caroline (Brandt) Meier emigrated to Central IL in abt 1884.They settled in Bloomington, IL where he farmed and labored on farms in the area.He was born in Stralsund, Germany and his sisters were from the area around there.I have at least 4 sisters for him and one brother, which I have as Carl (Karl) (but all seem to have Frederick, Joachim and Heinrich in names.
If you think there is a connection, please e-mail me.Thank you.
