Classification: Query
Surnames: Siegel, Segall, Sigel, seigel
My Dads grandpa was: Name: HARRY / Harris or Hirsche / Hirsh Siegel. Heres what we know:
a. Born about 1855-1960 in Lithuania (also Jewish name: named Tzvi)
b. Married to Anna or Channa (Mark),daughter of Harry (Harris) Mark and Syrel (Shirley) Karon. She was born about 1860.
c. We THINK he immigrated with my grandpa Samuel (Jacob) Siegel in 1890.Sam born in Lithuania in 1877.
d. Wife Anna and kids immigrated year later in 1891 on the ship Taormina. (They departed Hamburg on 23 Sept. 1891.) They lived in WILKOMIR Lithuiania.
e. Lived somewhere after landing at the Port of New York from New York to when they first showed up in
Superior WI. in 1894,in time for last son: Joe Siegel's birth in August.
f. Harry / Harris, Hirsche wasn't with them in 1894 in Superior.
g.Fact: Joe Siegel, having been born in Superior in Aug. 1894, means Harry was alive for conception in Dec.of 1893. City directories from 1895 -1901 show Anna in Superior ALONE with the kids. No Anna was listed before 1895.
H. Something mysteriouslly happened to him after Nov. 1893.
I. They lived SOMEWHERE from 1891-1894 from N.York to Superior. (this might be where something happened to him and is buried). Maybe that's why Anna moved to Superior.
J. Children were: Samuel (my grandpa), Louie, Nellie (Lindeke), Joe, Mike & John.
K. This same family is in a 1900 census for Superior WI. that shows a Jacob was head of the family. this census is TOTALLY all wrong, includig all birthdates. We can not go by this.
If something can be found where this family lived from 1890-1891 to 1895 (FROM New York to Superior WI.) this will finally solve this mystery. This is where something happened to him and maybe where he is buried.ANY help we'd so appreciate. Thank you. My dad is 87 and would so like to know anything about his grandpa.
