Friedrich Wilhelm Jäger was born in in the village of Holenberg (near Holzminden) in the Duchy of Braunschweig (Brunswick). He became qualified as a Master Tailor (Schneidermeister) and worked as such at Kloster Amelungsborn, a Protestant convent near Holenberg. With his wife, Charlotte Meyer, and five children, Friedrich emigrated from Bremen on the ship "Helene" on March 18, 1854, arrived at the port of Baltimore on May 9, and officially immigrated on May 10, 1854. The family then traveled to Wheeling and lived first at 98 (North) Main St., and then later in what today is the 26th block of either Main or Market St. below Wheeling Creek. As an American citizen he became known as Frederick William Yager. (He "naturalized" on the same day as August Warneke, who was to marry his daughter, Caroline Yager.)
After a few years of living in "downtown" Wheeling, Frederick bought some land, I think in the Leatherwood area and later moved to a farm in the Richland District (up the Bethany Pike, on the Waddington farm area later bought up for the Oglebay Estate). He died soon afterwards. I have extensive research: contact me if interested. See also my slides in "Sheeran Tree by Maryrose" at Ancestry.com.

Two of her seven children died when very young. Before emigrating from the port of Bremen, Charlotte, Friedrich and children resided at the cloister/convent of Amelungsborn. Her husband was a Master tailor, and as such , worked in this capacity for the convent personnel. Charlotte and family eventually emigrated and settled in Wheeling, WV.
