Looking for Info Re: Josef Kromer, Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA
Hello,
I'm looking for any information anyone might have about 2 of my ancestors--both named Josef Kromer--who emigrated from Apatin, Yugoslavia to Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Josef Sr. was born in about 1862 and was married (I think) to a Katharina Becker.They had 4 children:Leo, Josef, Katharina & Anna.I have located a ship manifest showing he came to the US in 1906 and was going to Barberton, Ohio to stay with someone named Toth.The last I know of him is that he lived on Pulaski Street in Milwaukee in October 1906.
Josef Jr. also came to the US in 1906.According to family oral history, he lived in Milwaukee, married and had 4 children.I have found no trace of him since 1906 either, but his brother Leo and his family lived and still live in Mayville, Wisconsin.
If you have any information that may help me learn more about these people, please get in touch with me!Thanks!
Sincerely,
Heidi S.
