Father Trogan came to St John Neopuk in
1856. There are two records that are of interest:
One: This ____day of of September,
1856, we are here to Baptize John who was born on the 14th day of
September, 1856 and who is the legitimate offspring of Francis Meyer
and Maria Klinger. Patrons (Godparents) are John Tesel and Magda
Bausek
Two: This 13th day of of January,
1862, we are here to Baptize Joseph who was born on the 27th day of
December, 1860 and who is the legitimate offspring of Francis Meyer
and Maria Klinger. Patrons are Joseph Maschek and Magdalena Bouzek.
They person who transcribed (they are
written in Latin) these records did not believe these children were
the children of "our" Franz Meyer and Maria Klinker. I
disagree, but I am sharing this information so you can can form your
own opinion.
This is the death certificate for John
Meyer that lists his parents as Franz Meyer and Marie Klinger. It is
signed by Amelia Meyer. When Amelia Meyer died, her death
certificate is signed by Edward Borovicka. Both John and Amelia are
buried in Calvary cemetery.
