Abstract (type = summary)
2. “Doremus” studio photo of Bertha Niessen, Paterson ca. 1892. Bertha (1870-1933) was the oldest surviving child of Franz and Philippine Niessen. She came to the US with her younger brother Emil (1876-1967), my grandfather, in 1891 (we have the passenger manifest). Alone of the children, Bertha returned to Germany, where she married Ernst Zimmermann in Viersen, not far from München-Gladbach. The couple had two children and were visited twice by her mother and also by at least two of her brothers.
