His family immigrated from Berlin in or around 1889. He worked as an Electrician in Ontonagon, MI and later moved to Detroit, MI. He registered for the draft on Sept 12, 1918 and was married and living in Ontonagon at the time. I can't find any information about his family before his marriage to Helen L. Nelson Davis who was not his wife at the time of his WWI registration.
Thanks for your help.
