Dear Thom,

This is Hugo from the Netherlands. I am researching the history of my family, including namesakes, like the Meyerfeld family from Beverungen, Germany. I can help you out with Mathilda Müller/Miller, born Meyerfeld.

She is the first child of Solomon (Anton) Meyerfeld, * Beverungen 15-04-1829, † Detroit MI 18-11-1911, weaver, married 1851 to Julia, * 1825, † Cincinatti OH 08-02-1897, Her parents got divorced and her father remarried Cincinatti OH 29-05-1855 Celia/Zillie Ehrman, * Mutwitz, Bavaria 25-05-1826, † Detroit 26-02-1902,

Mathilda got married twice, first Hamilton OH 12-01-1873 Charles Müller/Miller, second Monroe MI 10-11-1879 to Louis Welt, * Bavaria 07-07-1854, † 18-03-1923. She died Detroit MI 08-07-1945.

The other Mathilda Meyerfeld, * 1850, † Hamilton OH 26-01-1879, was born with the name Miller as well. Very confusing! Her husband is Mathias Meyerfeld – younger brother of Solomon / Anton – * Beverungen 26-02-1839, † Hamilton OH 10-03-1872, taylor. They both died young.

Hope this helps. If you’re interested I could give you information about the other Meyerfelds who emigrated from Beverungen to Cincinatti.

Best regards, Hugo
