He immigrated to the US around 1887, and says he was born in Weinberg, county of Neinberg, in the Empire of Germany (from his 1919 marriage record). I know he lived in Nebraska and Montana, but I don't know what ports he immigrated from/to, or where Weinberg is. Any help offered would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
