Geography

Note: many of the above stayed close to Allegheny City for most of their lives, however some ventured out and possibly returned. I read there were church records about fellow parishioners following the gold rush and coming back sick. Henry may have been born out of state. Henry's mother has not been located.... it is possible she is the Julia Hartmeyer buried in California.

The elder Hartmeyers (patriarch, matriarch, and oldest son's family) went to Preston County, VA (now in WV). They lived with the Blake family (uncertain what the relationship is).

The youngest Hartmeyer immigrant, "C. W." settled in Dunbar, PA.

Religion

The Hartmeyer Family was Lutheran in Varl and attended St. Johannis-Kirche in Rahden in Rahden. Some of the family remained Lutheran while others did not.

William Hartmeyer (1871-1948) and his wife Dora Marie Hartmeyer were buried at a Lutheran Cemetery, however their son was buried at a Catholic Cemetery. It is unclear where their daughter is buried, however she seems to have married into a Presbyterian family.
