Karen,
This may be helpful to you. My family was originally named Garvelmann,
changed it to Garbelmann, then to Garman, then to German. They lived in
State Center and Marshalltown. Then went to St. John's Lutheran.
Referring to Jerry Garman, do you have an approximate birthdate? It could
be that he is one of the lost Germans, as there was a Jerald German born
about 1890 that we know nothing about.

I have been in touch with another Myers researcher who has added more
surnames to my ever-growing list! Does anyone on the list have the following
people in their databases?
Jerry Garman (married Lilly Myers)
William Fredrickson (married Evalena Myers)
Mr. Ditmars (married Evalena Myers after William Fredrickson died)
Oscar Myers (son of Herbert B. Myers)
Ward Reinhold/Rinehold (married to Lilly Garman's daughter -- name unknown)
These folks probably lived in Perry Township, as did my Myers ancestors.
Thanks!
Karen
