I never met my grandparents - mom had
never met her aunt - and only heard negative stories from back home.
She came to the US twice - 1st in 1906 and returned for some unknown
reason and came back in 1909 and married grampa Kaiser shortly after
in Barberton, Ohio. My Dautermann Oma died in 1960 when I was 6, my
only memory about her was being in the back seat of the car while my
sister Leni was driving mom to the grocery store (she was driving on
her permit) and mom was reading the letter she just received telling
her that her mother had passed away - needless to say we didn't go
grocery shopping. My mom had never seen her mother again after
leaving Lager Haid in 1951.
Top, Magdalena, my
grandmother, to her right, Theresia, the aunt
my parents lived with when they first came to America - I called her
Grandma Kaiser
