Adolph & Annie's family

Adolph and Annie married on August 15, 1894. They had seven children. In order... Josephine, Adolph III (Charlie - I think he was called), Anna, Walter, Helen, Edward and Fredrick. Adolph was a butcher in a meat store.

My great grandparents




Annie M. Witz migrated from Ireland in 1889. The story I heard as a child is that she came from Cork. She graduated from Trinity College and then emigrated. I still have not been able to confirm that fact. Annie and Adolph married in 1894. They lived in Westchester County New York.

It all began...

This blog is being created to document my family history. I hope to share photos and stories that I heard as a child. Both my mom and grandmother are gone but the stories and photos that they left behind tell of very strong women who led interesting lives.
