June 1980 Nebraska Magdalena Elisabeth Griess Notes from Weist family :  >>Peter Ochsner, Sr. lived on his own estate of over 4,800 acres in the Worms area.  While he sent his two oldesst sons to Switzerland in order not to become Russian ciizens, the two youngest, too young at the time, thus became Russian citizerns.  His second son Jacob (1866-1946), emigrated to Sutton, Nebraska while Peter chose to remain in Russia.  His two youngest son remained with him. (Oscar Ochser, "The Ochsners from Switzerland to Amrica").  The web site is intersting.   It lists two daughter colonies under the name Ochsner (Also one under Roemmich). Adam Gieslger in "From Catherine To Khruhev," page 116, in talking about the establishment of daughter colonies in the Beresan District, says  "In addition to the founding of new colonies many private farms, some of them of large size, were acquired by Beresan colonists, particularly in the region about Rastadt and Munchen.  The land here had been owned by Bulgar and Serb colonists, and by Russian nobility, who gradually sold most of it to the more enterpising Germans."  I rather suspect this Ochsner colony would refer to the estate of 4,800 acres owned by Peter Ochsner, Sr. Oscar Arnold Alfred Ochsner, born in Anajew, Ukraine, Russia, which I cannot locate, but could easly be near the estate.  (R.
