Martin Ballas-Spencer, Wisconsin
Hello Everyone,
I'm trying to find any information about my great grandfather, Martin Ballas.I especially would like to know his wife's name.I believe it may be Helen Siegert.
My grandfather, John Carl Ballas, was born in Spencer, Wisconsin.
According to an entry on page 103 in the Marathon County, Wisconsin centenial (1874 - 1974) book Martin Ballas was a member of an organization called the Krueger-Verein.The Krueger-Verein was made up of ex-german soldiers.
The 1910 Census shows Martin's birthplace as Bohemia. The 1920 census shows his birthplace as Bohemia, Austria.
Thanks a lot.
