Wilhelm and Theresa's home in
Schachtebich, Kreis Heiligenstadt, Germany

All 8 if their children were born here, including quadruplets who died as infants.  
Willhelm was a Burgermeister.  
He brought his family to America in August 1879.  The trip across the ocean took 3 weeks.  They boarded a ship at Bremer Harbor and encountered a bad storm along the way making the trip quite rough.    Wilhelm died a year later.
