Jacob Waldorf was my G-G-Great Grandfather. He was the son of Nicholas Waldorf and Catherina Neher. Jacob's son, Jacob David Waldorf is my direct line. I originally had Margaret Mead the wife of Jacob, but then I was contacted by another Waldorf descendant from Nicholas Waldorf line. She said that she thought Maria Groat was his wife. So I reread my Grandmother's (Dolores Waldorf Bryant) family history where she named Maria Groat as his wife and mother of his children. My grandmother believed that Maria Groat Waldorf died due to complications of childbirth around 1850 after their last child was born. Then it appears her husband may have remarried a Margaret Mead who died in 1865. I have no marriage dates and very little information on either wife. I would appreciate any information you may have on Maria Groat. I have her children with Jacob and the marriages and children on three of those children. I have mostly complete information for generations from Jacob David down. Thank You. Olivia Bryant
P.S. I would not give much credence to my tree on rootsweb because you have to delete and reupload to correct any information and that is just too much trouble in my opinion.
