User-submitted Reference

The original spelling of Brackemyre was Brackemeyer. The name originates from an area east of Osnabruck, Germany known as the "Bracke". "Bracke" in German means "low". For example, the German name for a basset hound is "dachs bracke". The "Bracke" area is low farmland, and "meyer" means farmer. Since no ship registries have not been found for the original immigrant to the United States, Brackemeyer may not have been the original name, but simply a vocational description.

Dielingen is a town east of Osnabruck.
