Hannover vs Aachen

My Niemeyer/Niemeier/Winters family is said by family writings to have come to USA from Hannover about 1850 or so. That is the only indication of their German home. Another source tells me they lived in Aachen. I have nothing on this location at all.

Am aware the surname is rather popular but wonder if anyone has any thoughts.

Thanks, Bill Houdek
