Searching for information on Henry (Heinrich) Auler

JeffAuler

I am trying to find out where my great grandfather lived while in Germany. His name is Henry (Heinrich Auler). He was born in November of 1857. In September of 1881, he arrived in New York; he eventually settled in Indiana where he mined coal. His parents names were Jacob and Julian (Julie??) based on his marrage record. I will appreciate any information that you would like to share. I have heard that he was from Southern Germany.

Thank you,

Jeffrey Auler

Hello Jaffrey,

the name Jacob Auler was very common in Simmern/Rhineland. I found by LDS database:
Jacob Auler
* and ~ Simmern 24. and 25. O7.1798
son of Jacob Auler and Juliana NN.

Maybe they are parents or greatparents. Unfortunately the LDS database is ending in 1798. But in the archive of the lutheran church of Rhineland in Boppard churchbooks are available up to 1858. http://www.archiv-ekir.de/imag…/Kirchenbuecher_1_507.pdf

Kind regards
Detlef

Hello Jeffrey,

I just did some research and I found this https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M99F-5W4.
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:27V8-Z9D This might be him, too.
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:27JR-WDR This is his marriage.
http://www.castlegarden.org/qu…h_detail.php?p_id=6140290 This is his immigration. But the problem is that this one was born 1859 (calculated). Maybe also in early 1858. Since his profession is miner, I am pretty sure it's Henry Auler.

Greetings Marie

I think, the data from the United States are known. Jeffrey is looking for his German ancestors
