Just recently learned that Rev. August Graebener (who lived in Washington -- Lind, or Sind --) was apparently the son-in-law of my husband's great-grandfather.I believe (but cannot yet verify) that his first wife was Bertha Schmidt (born in Germany, moved to Wisconsin.)I suspect that she died prior to 1909.Three children were among those remembered with small gifts after their Grandfather Schmidt's death.August's daughter Bertha no longer lived at home, but daughters Erna and Gertrude were apparently minors in 1909.
You seem to have gotten much info on the family, and his early days, Steve.If you're able to share how you got some of this info, I would be most grateful.
