* WINKLER FAMILY FROM SACHSEN ,GERMANY HOME PAGE*

Updated September 5, 2000


Looking for relatives of OTTO WINKLER (1879-1950).He was my grandfather and came to America about 1902-1906, married ANNA STORA and they had a store/deli in West New York, New Jersey until 1920 when they moved to Greeley, Pennsylvania. They had 3 children: Otto, Jr.; Elizabeth, and Louise.
Family left behind in Germany were his mother, Wilhelmine, his father(first name unknown) who died on January 6, 1904, as well as a sister ELIZABETH who married Herman BARTH and had 4 children: Leishen born about 1890,Gretchen born 1887, Mary born about 1886, and Fritz born in 1902. Their letters were postmarked from Muhlhausen. Herman was a teacher at Webschule, Rosen Street #41, Muhlhausen.

Sister HELEN was married to I believe ALOIS SCHOLZ. The lived in Oschatz. Helen died about 1950.

TONI was another sister married to WILLIE STEJSKAL and they had a daughter, EDITH, who was 16 in 1919. I think Edith had a daughter named Gisela. They lived in Chemnitz.

LYDIA was married to HANS FRANK DITTRICH (B.8/27/1883) She came to America about 1907 and lived in Bloomfield, New Jersey.

Otto's brother EUGENE'S wife's name was Maria. I believe they had a daughter Dora. In 1950 my grandfather received a letter from MONIKA KELLER who I think is Eugene's grandaughter. Monika mentioned Inga and Ute in her letter. Monika lived in Bautzen,Sachsen.
