My stepfather was Horst Frederick TAEGER ( 1920-1996) He used the name Fred H. Taeger and I am just beginning to explore his family history. He was born in Magdeburg and his parents were Paul Emil Taeger and Ottilie Klose. His grandfather was Frederick Taeger, but that is just about the extent of what I know so far. I am interested in discovering how common a name TAEGER is in Germany and the orgins of the surname. I would like to hear from any TAEGERS from the Magdeburg area of Germany, or someone with information about that family.
