Description

A family history of the New York branch of Widmayers who arrived at the port of Philadelphia in 1826 from the farming community of Strumpfelbach in Wurttemberg, Germany, which today is a part of the town of Weinstadt. They quickly made their way to Manhattan where the author's great great grand uncle established the family in the "Uppertendom" of New York society. That man, George Adam Widmayer, (1803-1886), developed much of W. 23rd Street between 6th and 7th Avenues.
