Matthew Michael Kraemer was a brother to Nicholas Joseph Kraemer (1879-1943),& Leo Kraemer born around 1889, sister to Katherine Kraemer Holland 1877-1928 and Agnes Kraemer Lamerand or Lomorande 1884-1929. Matthew Kraemer's parents Nicholas J. Kraemer 1853-1913 - married Katherine Gipp ( George Gipp -do one for the gipper relation...he would have been Katherin Gipp's nephew). I am related through Matthew's brothers Nicholas Joseph born 1879 - 1943 who married Louise Margaret Limback 1881-1958 They lived in copper country and had 8 children: phillip nickname Dutch, Leo (speedy), Louise (girlie), Joe (sauce), Fred (fritz), Francis (happy), Corrine (babe) & Robert. My grandpa is Leo Kraemer mentioned above. Leo married kathryn Kraemer and had 2 children Patrick and Janet. They mostly lived in Greenbay, Wisconsin. My dad Patrick Kraemer remembers Matthew Kraemer coming to live with them for several summers in Greenbay, Wisconsin. He got a job at a canning company named Larson's. Matthew enjoyed going out and as a kid my dad remembered Matthew getting all dressed up to go out Friday night and wouldn't return until Monday.He remembers visiting Matthew in the hospital or VA center with his dad Leo several times before he died in Milwaukee. My Uncle Robert Kraemer (parents Nicholas & Louise Kraemer) remembers Matthew living with them for a brief time in Copper country near Ahmeek Mine. Matthew did work in the mines for awhile - the Ahmeek Mine. Robert also remembers viisting him at some goverment camp or some type of afflication with the government after the war.. Robert remembers meeting his daughter Jessie and there was an uncle or two that checked in he believes. Robert doesn't remember another child but the web says a Ruth Kraemer was born and Ethel Sanders or Saunders Kraemer 1884-1906 died the same year a Ruth Kraemer died 1906-1906 Whatever additional information you may have on Matthew or any of the above relatives please pass on!!!
