Johann Georg Hillermeier born October 1, 1823 in Weinberg bei Aurach, Ansbach, Bavaria, Germany. He worked as a Maurer (stone mason) in Wallmersbach until his death on April 25, 1880 at the age of 56.
He married Barbara Anna Schwartz who was born around 1832 in Wallmersbach, Germany. She died February 23, 1906 in Ochsenfurt at the age of 74.
Georg and Barbara were married on March 13, 1870 in Wallmersbach, Germany. They were of the Lutheran religion. This is a photo of the Lutheran church in Wallmersbach. Perhaps it is the church they married in.
They raised a family in the city of Wallmersbach.
We have found records for 3 children:
Karl (May 8, 1878) - may have been the son of Ana Weber when she married Johann. The record states that Karl's birth was legitimate, so Ana may have been a widow, Margareta (July 13, 1882) and Barbara Anna (November 24, 1885

Note: Due to the time span (15 years) in birth years between Johann Michael and Babette, it is most likely that the father Johann Georg may have been a widower with the two boys when he married Barbara Anna Schwartz. She may even have been a widow with children since she was age 40 when Babette was born.
Johann Georg died at the age of 56 in Wallmersbach. Barbara Ann geb. Schwartz died at the age of 74 in Ochsenfurt. She was living with her daughter at her death.
