Notes: John was born in the germanic kingdom of Bavaria in 1837 and probably remained there until 1865.
Although King Ludwig II ruled during the latter years, the King avoided day-to-day politics and the
turbulent military affairs facing the country. Nothing is known about John's life in
Barvaria — except that he may have lived near the western border and near Lake Constance
(bodensee), and his middle initial H. may have come from Hugo, his possible
German name. John immigrated from Barvaria in 1865 at about age 28. He then lived in the United States for the next 35 to 45 years. He met and married his wife probably in Michigan that same year 1865. The place and date of birth of their first born is not known. That child did not live long. John and his wife were in Texas when their next three children were born in 1875, 1877, and 1879. They were in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in 1880 and in Louisiana in 1881 when their daughter Mamie was born. John and his family then moved west to Napa, California, and were there in 1900. He probably passed in Napa or Vallejo before April 1910 — because the 1910 census showed his wife as a widow. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
