Family Werner - NYC Updated September 6, 2000

My great-Grandfather Joseph Werner was born in Baden, Germany in 1866. He emmigrated from Germany in 1882. Joseph arrived in NYC and settled down in Brooklyn, NY. He Married Maria Louise Knapp. They had five children; Mary, Joseph, Anton (my grandfather), Gertrude and William. He may have arrived with a sister who was married to a Rochler. On the 1910 census, there is a Maria Rochler listed as a niece (age 13 at that time). Also on Joseph's son Joseph's baptismal certificate, there is listed a George Rochler as a sponsor. If anyone has information about George or Maria Rochler in Brooklyn, NY, please send me an email. Thanks to all.
