Jacob and Louise were my GG Grandparents. They made quite a trip from Prussia/Germany to the US. I will add their story that I researched. Also, I have Jacob's death certificate I will attach. I'm adding Johann "John" August Geddert's death certificate as well, and his headstone. I added Johanna "Anna" Marie Juhni's death certificate, wife of Johann "John" August Geddert.
