Hi all! I'm following another line and hope someone out there regognizes one of these people! My grandparents divorced when my father was 4 years old and my grandmother has never told us much. My grandfathers name is Charles Walter Fischer born Philadelphia, 1921. In searching the US census records, I found a listing for a Charles Fischer of the right age, father Frank/Francis, mother Mary, siblings George, Robert and Francis. I've managed to trace these people back to a ggrandmother Adelaide and ggranfather, Conrad. Adelaide and Conrad list Bavaria, Germany as their birthplace, immigration date 1865. I've tried to check the passenger lists but there are so many people with the same name, I became overwhelmed! The census info I have been able to find for this family is as follows:
