Biography

After her husband's accidental death she sold the carriage factory business and brought everyone to the USA. Apparently the older sons went ahead as her immigration record of 1903 shows just Magda, Alfred and a Carl H who was 22 (AKA Herman)

Of the 7 children that came to the US in 1902/1903. four of them settled in Milwaukee and three settled in Washington state.
