My Sauer line is through Minnesota from Saxony. Thanks to a cousin who lives near Dresden who I first met on line, I can trace family back to the 1600's My Great Grandfather, Traugott Sauer, had 8 children in US, then went back to Germany, married again and had 11 more children! Wow!

Our immigrant was Wendelin Sauer, son of Thomas Sauer and grandson of Urban Sauer of Hartheim, Baden (Germany). Wendelin was born in Hartheim and came to Cincinnati around 1848. (Got lots of information on him, ancestors, and descendants.) My mother was a daughter of Louis W. Sauer.

Yes, who knows when the spelling of names were changed. I have a few lines like that, where the surname is spelled differently throughout the records.
