Thier son Klaus died in 1914, during WWI. I must have been difficult to have children on opposing sides of the war. Andreas, stayed in Germany, as did his children, The children that went to America, became fruit ranchers in the Suisun Valley, California, after a short stay in San Fransisco. She died on 10 Mar 1938 at the age of 84 in Blumenthal, Kirchspiel Horst, Hannover.^[3]
