Römer Family Genealogy
|
The surname Römer was also spelled Roemer, Reimer, and Riemer. The family was from Eggersheim or Norvenich, Germany. The family was Roman Catholic. Gerhard and Anna Sybilla (Römer) Kaiser were the emigrant ancestors, departing from LeHavre, France and arriving at the port of New York on May 12, 1851 on the ship Dorcas Prince. The listed destination was Ohio, but by the 1860 census the family had settled in Washington County, Wisconsin. The original St. Medardus Church of Norvenich was destroyed in 1642. From 1658 to 1664, the church was re-built from scratch. This is where ancestors Mathias Römer and Elizabetha Braurs were married in 1761. The three-brick building has a prominent West Tower and a closing three eastern choir. The pulpit, crafted in 1667, is a particularly outstanding testimony Baroque craftsmanship. The church features many more examples of Baroque art in the 17th Century, including the baptism, altars, and confessionals. The surname Reimer is from a Germanic personal name, a reduced form of Reinmar, composed of the elements hrud or 'renown' and mari, or 'fame'. No information on the surnames Gartzens, Braurs, or Honingon is available. Information on the surnames Doll and Kayser/Kaiser is available at the linked genealogical pages.
