My Uncle Charlie was a baker. Grandma was Aloysia. Dang you are SO good. This should get me going again on digging family history.beachcomberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13937097661931054380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371475280728005363.post-41677973859575341992008-05-13T08:51:00.000-07:002008-05-13T08:51:00.000-07:00BTW, one of your uncle's WW1 registrations list hi...BTW, one of your uncle's WW1 registrations list his occupation as a baker and the Karle on the ship Cassel is also a baker.<BR/><BR/>And I was able finally to decipher his final destination Eau Claire Wisconsin. This Karle was also traveling with his son Karle. The wife of the elder Karle's name is something like Hoisie which might be Louise or that might be what she anglecized her name to.Kymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04724133309876710731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371475280728005363.post-29487925144933598472008-05-13T08:40:00.000-07:002008-05-13T08:40:00.000-07:00I do a genealogy research so I took a stab at your...I do a genealogy research so I took a stab at your problem. Without knowing your grandparents given names. I searched Wisconsin and found a carl or Charles living there of the right age.<BR/><BR/>I searched passenger manifests from 1900 to 1910 and found a Karle Godliecher (names are often misspelled) who came over in August 1910. he was born abt 1871 which matches the age of the Carl/Charles in Eau Claire. <BR/>Departed from: <BR/>Bremen, Germany<BR/>Ship Name: Cassel<BR/>Port of Arrival: Baltimore, Maryland<BR/>Friend's Name: Josefa Krestin<BR/>Last Residence: Mähren<BR/><BR/>Mahren is a town in Austria and one of the Goetllichers sons (I think Joe) WW1 registration lists him as being born in a town that looks like Mahren --though the handwriting is difficult to read.<BR/><BR/>Also Karle lists a wife as next of kin<BR/><A HREF="http://books.google.com/books?id=rX6itGfBamUC&pg=PA48&lpg=PA48&dq=%22SS+Cassel%22&source=web&ots=2RuSHx1WKW&sig=1IjVVT9jsD5RWqymHjxIPAW0EUc&hl=en" REL="nofollow">Here</A> is a picture of the ship.<BR/><BR/>Hope that helps. Let me know if there is something else I can do.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I loved your post.Kymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04724133309876710731noreply@blogger.com
