Lafayette & Elizabeth Messler were my great great grandparents. They bought a home at
1322 Lane Street in Falls City, Richardson County, NE on 4/1/1893 for $1300. On 12/1/1894
they mortgaged for $1051.45 and got a release on 3/19/1895. Then on 3/19/1895 widow
Elizabeth and her children and their spouses sold the house for $1700. Also, I am curious
if you know of any family connection to Adolphus D. Messler and Francis Messler, who
bought a home a few blocks away from this at 1503 Fulton in 1888. There are some other
Messlers in the Falls City Cemetery, but as far as I know they are not related to the ones
I am related to. I was born in Falls City, NE, myself, still have office there, but I am
now located at Signal Mtn., TN. My records show Lafayette born 1838 and Elizabeth born
1842. I have no further information further back on my family tree, so if you do I would
appreciate the info. Thanks, Neeld J. Messler
