Thanks - I already have most of that. Hannah Maria sometimes Annie Maria Prior was born before him and Sophia Prior married.

I have often wondered whether those first two children that are showing as been born in Germany were either siblings or as most people on Ancestry presume the children of Johannes and Sophia before they married.

He is my 3rd great grandfather and it is frustrating to not be able to find anything about him. As you say the ages don’t add up and also the names and spellings constantly change!

And I have also searched for Neidermieor Germany as well which is on the census for Sophia Christiana as a birth place on the 1881 census and that also is transcribed wrong and doesn’t exist so makes finding these people probably impossible.

I have found on Ancestry a baptism in April 1843 in Lussow Germany for a Sophia Maria Christiana Lindeman daughter of Johanes Andreas Lindeman and his wife Sophia Maria maiden name Dose. This is the only thing that remotely matches, but of course it would mean than Johannes certainly wasn’t born in 1831.

Lussow is near places called Kassow and Neukloster which are a bit similar to the transcriptions so you never know!

Hmm, I am leaning towards a totally different area of Germany because of "Cassel" in the 1861 census. When I played around with "Merdermesen"(1871) and "Neadermieor"(1881), I ended up with "Niedermeiser" abt 25km from Kassel. (Of course my guess could be totally wrong).

While I was having a look at FS, I found an 1867 German census for a family in Karow (abt 40k from Lüssow). It sounds a bit like the family you found with a Sophia born abt 1843: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QV3S-DLF1

I'm confused. I thought her maiden name was Prior...

Do we have any actual images of the various place names mentioned here (apart from Niedermeiser)?

Comhalsen is bugging me.  I was wondering whether it should be (Bad) Karlshafen..? Another shot in the dark!

Yes I think you are correct. Those names totally make sense and that entry in Family Search certainly is the family I found. Well at least I have an area of Germany now to search in!
