This clipping suggests that Frederick was born around 1854 and thus likely the husband of Bertha Lohmeyer, both born in Pennsylvania and living with their daughter Emma, husband Walter Faulkner and their grandchild Walter R in Jersey City Ward 8, Hudson, New Jersey, United States. Both of Frederick's parents were born in Germany.  (1920 Census Data).

His brother is likely to have been William Lohmeyer, husband of Mulvina/Mulvania Lohmeyer (b. 1859 in Pennsylvania) who is listed as widowed in the 1930 Census, living with her daughter Ruby and her husband David Allen Mccully at Ross, Allegheny, Pennsylvania, United States.  In the 1920 Census, William is shown in the same household.  He was born in 1856 in Pennsylvania to German parents. (1920 & 1930 Census Data)
