Anna Marie Jaeger (Muller)
Anna* Maria
Jaeger was born on 12 August 1841 at Oberhausen, Rheinpfalz, Germany; In a diary kept by John Muller (Anna Maria's son) of his trip to Germany in the early 1920s, we found reference to the town of Bad Bergzabern as beng his mother's home. Marilyn Zensinger Laws (son William's granddaughter) visited there in 1999 and sent me a postcard (in DJW files) showing a truly lovely town. She learned that the public records for this area are now in Heidelberg. I hope to visit there and perhaps find some cousins one day.
Because other records show Bavaria as the origin of at least some members of this family, there is still work to be done to confirm their home.
As of 2003, the address is 76887 Bad Bergzabern, and it is located in Rheinland-Pfalz Political District 1. She was the daughter of
Friedrich* Jaeger and
Elizabeth Rapp. Anna* Maria Jaeger married
Louis* Justus Martin Muller, son of
