WILLER, Herman and Emilie- (Chicago, IL)

Dear folks,
I am not sure, as I have never done geneological research before and am just thinking about starting out, but I think that my family may fit in with yours somehow.I know that my great-grandparents would have come to this country in about 1884, but unfortunately I do not know my great-grandfather's first name.I do know however that he married Bertha Zielof, (I think the spelling of the last name is right), and that they had several children.I do not know most of the children's names but my grandfather's first name was Arthur. The whole family lived in the Chicago area for years, up to and including myself.My father, Raymond Willer, grew up in Melrose Park, IL.I grew up in Hinsdale, IL and did not leave that area until I became an adult. I do not know if any of this will help you in your search but I suspect that we are relatives and I would like to hear more from you if you are inclined to reply.My email address is [email protected] just in case this doesn't come with the address already attached.By the way, I also think there was a Willer family in the Chicago area that was not related to us at least so far as we know so this may be a dead end.However, it may be worth both of us checking it out.
