Looking for more information on Ernest Ehlers b 1862 in Germany, died 1950 is St. Louis Mo. Immigrated in 1890's.

Wife Dora/Dorothy. B 1864 D 1917 (Germany/St. Louis)

Metta/Margaret b 1885

Ernest jr. b 1888

Olga/Ollie/Olive b1890

Emil b 1891
(above all born in Germany, immmigrated in 1890's - I have a copy of passenger manifests)

Paul b1897

Elise b1905 (my grandmother)


per a passport application I found Father is Frederick (Fritz) Ehlers unknown bith/death & Julia Brehmer


I believe they came from either Hamburg or Bad Olesloe in Holstein.


My grandmother was estranged from her family (and the baby) so I have limited information. Would love to find out if anyone has information on his parents, city of birth etc to further my research.

Thanks
M Henderson
