Transcriber's Notes:
The use of a * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to
quality of original manifest.
The correct spelling of the last name is Busam, this is the list takers error
Another list taker error was the name of her uncle who she was going to,
that name should be Wendel Busam.
Franziska [Fanny] Wilhelmine Busam, (Picture) born 18 December 1884
in Offenburg, Baden, Germany. Leaving behind her father and siblings, she left
for Hamburg where she boarded the SS Auguste Victoria, departing Hamburg on
24 September 1902. Her Uncle Moritz Busam met her in New York and brought her to
Frankfort, KY where she boarded at the Frankfort Ice Company while working
as a housekeeper. She left Frankfort for Cinncinatti, Ohio for work at the
Sterling Hotel as a housekeeper. She met her future husband,
Christian Joseph Mack, Jr. there and in 1910, she followed Christian to
Chicago, Illinois. On 29 June 1910 they married and set up housekeeping,
raising their two sons, Christian Joseph III and Maurice Wendel.
