Their son Martin,& daughter Julianna & her husband August Heeler also came with them. They belonged to St.Pauls Lutheran Church in Manchester. Julianna and August Heeler's oldest daughter, Ida Pauline Heeler, married Fred August Birkholz in Monroe Co, WI. (we seem to have a lot of names in common. Is there any connection?) Caroline(Beier)Petrich's father's name is beleived to be Wm. Beier/Beyer. Caroline died 9/23/1995 in Kingston, WI as Karolina Bischoff. Would like to get a copy of her obit.
