Fridolin arrived in New York in 1882 from Baden province, in Germany.
Fridolin was the brother of John Baptist Herr, also buried here.
Fridolin or Fred was married to Catherine Eickhoff, daughter of Johann Eickhoff and Maria Anna Margarethe Kleinsorge, who emigrated from Westfalen Province, in Germany.
The Eickhoff family arrived March 29, 1881 in New York harbor and eventually settled in Anderson County, Kansas.
Fred Herr and Katie Eickhoff Herr were the parents of a number of children. Two of their children not linked here are also buried in this cemetery:

=============
Suggested edit: Fridolin or Fred Herr was born in Steinach an der Saale, Bad Kissingen, Bavaria, Germany.
You can check either Google or MeyersGaz.org. Steinach is not in Baden-Wurttemberg (southwest Germany) it is clearly in Bavaria (or Bayern) which is in southeast Germany.
This is a common mistake mixing up these two German states.
