The Meyer Genealogist Digs into the Game and Forest of the Goehrde











I found this picture post card on the internet a long time ago. I think it was on ebay. But I am not entirely sure. It does give one a good picture of the area that Juergen Friedrich Meyer was working as a game warden.

I am sure his children learned alot from their fathers occupation. I think it helped Friedrich have the courage to go to america at such a young age. He probably knew how to hunt and do anything in that survival need. Especially when he set up his household in Greene county, Iowa.
Here is a link or two from google search about the Hunting that was reserved for Kings.
