Albert Karl, wife Helen, daughter Bertha in Boston area
I am looking for information about my great great grandparents Albert Karl and Helen Rau. They were German immigrants in the Boston area.
I do not know Helen's maiden name,but do know that she had a sister named Minnie. Helen was born in 1872 and Minnie was born in 1860. I believe they came over as children with there parents. Helen died of cancer in the late 30s in the Boston area.
According to my grandmother's diary, Albert was born in 1875 and died in 1926. He came to the US around 1890. I do not know the names of any of his relatives.He may have had a brother named Richard, as my grandmother mentions someone called "Uncle Dick" who frequently sends the women money in the 30s.
Albert and Helen had 2 daughters. One was my great grandmother Bertha who was born in 1901. She married Clarence Rickard around 1920. She lived in the Boston area, Detroit, and Lafayette, Indiana. The other daughter, Laura, died as a young child.
If anyone can give me any information about this family, I would really appreciate it.
