(right after my dad) my mother said she knew him as emil jr. Marie is still alive and lives in california. teresa died of alztimer's about 9 years ago.the other sister's i remember are edith,& ann. but i know there are more who are all deceased. emil sr. parent's sent him to america to search for land from austria. they were grape farmer's and had much land. they all died durning the war under russian attack. my father left Minneasota to work in the ship yard's in california and them came to washington state where my mother and all his children live. he was very bitter to his dad emil sr. for making him stay home and work on the dairy farm. he only recieved a sixth grade education. emil sr. died in saint paul in a home for the blind. i only met him once..my dad married esther elizabeth sheridan from degraff Mn. i'm sure my mother can add a great deal of information....
