Neil was a schoolteacher and taught three terms of school at the Auer School, west of Delphos and near Landeck, Allen County, Ohio. He was teaching school there when he met Susanna (Susan)GENGLER, and it was there that he courted her. Originally, he was probably encouraged to come to Allen County by his older brother Joseph John FALTER who was married and living there. Neil married Susan, and took her back to Seneca County, Ohio where they raised their family. She died in childbirth with their fifth child. Neil never remarried. Neil and Susan are seated in this photo. The matron of honor is Margaret (GENGLER) KARST and the best man is Neil's brother Edward.
