  • Notes 
    • Although on find a grave it states that Michael's birth date is 10/2/1814, I am more inclined to believe the transcription of the german baptism. Because I cannot decifer German language i cannot determine what the month says in the documents. However the dates are clear and it definitely says the 1st.
      There is a Fredric Eck living in the household with Georg Michael and Margaretha in 1850. He was born about 1839 so it is highly unlikely that he is their child as they did not get married until 1842. However , all documents indicate that he is Michael's son. There is no way to know forsure as there is no documentation of Fredric's birth.

      The 1870 Census has Georg Michael being born in 1815 and in Prussia. Find a Grave has Georg Michael being born in Wilhilmliefn, Bavaria, Germany. They also have the last name of his wife as Dresway and that is completely inaccurate. Her last name is Disque by the marriage record I have from when they were married in Germany.
