This ID is not 100% certain
but seems probable.
Gerhard Bernard's approximate year of birth was known
from his age on a census. His parents' names were not
on his marriage record but someone with his name and corresponding
age was found in the emigration index, emigrating from
Meppen in 1838. With that information, Meppen parish records
were checked and a corresponding birth/baptism record
was found there for Gerhard Bernard. The parents' names
as noted above were taken from that record.

David Eilering
who has this emigrant listed in documents linked to his
genealogy website http://www.csj.net/~deilerin/famtree.htm |
| SOURCES: |
Johan's date of birth and
parents' names were noted on David Eilering's genealogy
website. That source also said he came from Lingen but
a birth/bapt record was not found there for him there.
Because his surname was known to have occurred in Gross
Hesepe parish, that parish's records were then checked
and a birth/bapt entry was found there for Johan Herman
one day earlier than the date noted by David Eilering
and with the correct parents. Information about his
death and his children was from the same website. The
marriages were both at St Boniface parish.

approximate year and probable place of birth were known

list allowed all members of the family to be identified

entry in the book included marriage information and year

Herman Bernard's
approximate year of birth was known from his age on his
death record at St Vincent de Paul parish. With that he
was identified in the Osnabrueck emigration index and then
on the passenger list of the ship Mata. With that
information a baptismal record was found for him in the
Klein Berssen parish records and his parents' names were
taken from that record. His wife's surname was known from
the marriage record of son Johan Bernard who married in
1852, St. Louis, MO, at St. Joseph parish and is also mentioned
in Herman Bernard's entry in Lynne Brown's WorldConnect
database. The first two children were identified from the
parents' names on their marriage records and the last three
were known from the passenger list and are also in Lynn
Brown's WorldConnect database.
