  Biography	From Find a Grave
  Born in Sassenhgen Pommern, Kreis, Germany Ferdinand (Fred)immigrated to the U.S. April 15, 1883. He arrived in Baltimore at age 24 with his first wife Wilhelmine (Minnie), 27, and their two daughters Marie (2) and Auguste (6 months). They had only 1 colly of belongings and listed Wisconsin as their final destination. Traveling on the SS Strassburg with them was his brother Karl and his family. His other brothers, Wilhelm and Hermann came over 6 months later. They made their way and settled in Appleton. Fred opened a tea and spice business delivering to all the German famers in the area. His wife Minnie had two more children, Martha and Frank, in Appleton before dying in childbirth in 1886. This left Fred with four children under the age of six. On November 2, 1886 he married his second wife, Louise Kreutzmann, who had a daughter, Minnie, age 9. Louise and Fred had four children together (Louise Ella, William Charles, Eugenia Caroline and Emma). Louise died in childbirth with Emma in April 1894. This left Fred with eight chidren between ages 2 and 17. On November 2, 1894 (same date he married Louise) Fred married Annette Anna Blumenkranz, a divocee from Russia with two daughters of her own. Fred and Anna had five children: Henry WIlliam, Theodore Herman, a baby girl, Anita Ottilie, and Mildred Emilia; but only three lived past childhood. Fred died due to an accident with a train in 1906. He was out in a horse-drawn cart making his usual runs to the area farms. As was his habit, he stopped for a drink or two on the way home. The horse arrived home without the wagon or Fred. They found him injured along the train tracks, his wagon in bits, having been hit by a train as the horse ran across the intersection. He was brought home where he died in the wee hours of the morning from head injuries. He is buried with all three wives and the two infants who died in childbirth.
