Does anyone have any information on "Mary Schröder"?

Question

Mary Schroeder as listed in the record for Nebraska Marriages list only her father as F. Schroeder and born in Wisconsin. I would like some assist in finding her family ties. If her family immigrated from Germany the last name would be "Schröder". I have run into a brick wall

Answer 1

Hi Gary:

You may want to take a look at the familysearch.org family tree for Mary Schröder, which lists her birth in Wisconsin (with a source reference to Wisconsin births) as well as her 1880 federal census record: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/9Q1N-CW4

If you do not already have an account with familysearch, you will need one to see this; however, accounts there are free (just like here).

Answer 2

Hi Gary, it looks like you've built a family tree on family search but might be uncertain of Mary's parents? I snooped around and this is what I found based on census records. There is also a nice bio on FindAGrave for Anna (Mary's Mom) that corroborates the records for the family's immigration and movement in the US. Hope this helps.
