Hi Kaye:
Although I've posted some of the info I have on a web site (see later message). I have been unable to tie us together. It seems probable to me that there must be a connection given the number of Adam Lugers and Georg Franz Lugers which I have of that time period. Given the naming conventions in our family (perhaps in all families of the time).Sons after fathers etc.etc.
Unfortunately, the only well known connection I have is with Great Uncle Peter Luger who founded Peter Lugers Steak House in Brooklyn in 1867. Until a dozen years ago , we still had family associated with the restaurant. Some of the family names which would have relevance are Langhirt, Holler,Cone,Dickert.
Regards
Andy
