His daughters (Mary Greisen, Susan Greisen Gelbach (my grandmother), Margaret Greisen DeGarceau, Johanna Greisen Gaffney, and Anne Greisen Hoeflinger)all moved to S. Calif. Stephen and his wife Margaret Britz Greisen (died 1928) moved to Long Beach CA when he sold the farm in 1925. His brother was Bernard Greisen, (died 1903), and his wife Susanna went to Oregon with her sons. Stephen and Bernard's sister, Anna Greisen Schneider (died 1890's), was married to Anton Schneider and had 2-3 sons. The Greisens came from Trier, Germany in the early 1880's, with their mother Johanna Groelinger Greisen (died 1913). Marty Berbach
