Wishing you all a wonderful day! I was wondering if anyone else was researching the Wilhelm Frisch family from Juraiten, Prökuls, East Prussia? I know nothing more of Wilhelm or his wife Wilhelmine Strenger, but I do know a little about their four children; Friedrich Wilhelm Franz, Wilhelmine Auguste Lina, Louise Bertha Ida, and Wilhelm Carl Otto. Friedrich Wilhelm Franz Frisch was born 2 Jan 1853 in Juraiten and christened 23 Jan 1853 in Prökuls. Wilhelmine Auguste Lina Frisch or Lina is my third great grandmother. I have quite a lot of information on her and her family. She was born 30 Aug 1856 in Juraiten, christened 19 Oct 1856 in Prökuls, married 8 Oct 1875 in Kinten, died 1 Dec 1937 in Minneapolis, and buried 3 Dec 1937 in Crystal Lake Cemetery in Minneapolis. According to family stories, her husband, August Behrendt, had a bakery in Russ. She and her children followed her husband, August Behrendt to Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota, United States. Louise Bertha Ida Frisch or Ida was born 26 May 1858 in Juraiten, christened 11 Jul 1858 in Prökuls, married Friedrich Vorlauff, and died 8 Aug 1927. Her husband died 7 Apr 1911. They may have had a daughter named Helene Vorlauff. Wilhelm Carl Otto Frisch or Otto was born 3 May 1861, christened 3 May 1861, married Therese Gunter, and died 12 Oct 1932 in Bachmann. Therese died 12 Jan 1935 in Memel. They had at least one child who was named Walter O. Frisch. Walter was born 30 Dec 1885 and died 3 Jan 1904 in Minneapolis. He was a machinist and was single at the time of his death. They may also have had a daughter named Helene Frisch. Any help would be wonderful. PS We have photos of Wilhelm, Wilhelmine, Lina's family, a photo of Helene Vorlauff, and a photo of Helene Frisch. Happy to share what we have.
