John Egerer, b. 25 Nov 1873, lived Orange, New Jersey, reported he immigrated in 1885-1886.
1895 Manhattan, New York, married Eva Felbinger. Parents (I don't have a copy of the marriage record - from memory - Martin Egerer & Anna _____. Birthplace (spelled by clerk?) Brumenhof, Austria.
Birthplace listed on census records:
1900 - Austria
1910 - Germany
1920 - Austria
1930 - Germany
1940 - Germany
I have found the parents on an index to death records in Manhattan (Italiangen.org), so perhaps their death records will shed light on the family's place of origin.
