Seeking any information on Leopald and Caroline Teska.
In 1901 they resided in East Bloomfield, Wisconsin.
They were my GGG Grandparents. They were married in 1829.
They had a daughter, Amelia Teska whom married William Yohr and
had a son, Henry Yohr and a dauhter, Eva Marie. I believe Leopald and
Caoline Teska had a son also named, Henry whom had two children, Ed and
Bertha.

The information I have obtained leads me to Wisconsin. I Am interested in
searching my family names, Yohr and Teska. Anyone with any info. please contact
Me. I am also interested to know where the name Teska and Yohr originated from.

Teska family--esp. Bertha

Dear Larry,

I just found your posting and was curious on the one mention of a Bertha Teska, daughter of Henry(?).

Do you have any other information on her? I have a Bertha Teska who married George Weisman. They lived in NJ but George had come from Germany to Illinois and then to NJ--so it's possible they moved to NJ after the marriage. Bertha George were born about 1875 and they were married about 1893-1894. George and Bertha had 6 children--William, Herman, Walter, George,Jr, Martha M, and Rosa. Bertha Teska Weisman died during the 1918 influenza epidemic when Rosa was 5 years old.

Anything look familiar to you? Please email me at NEDobbins@aol.com.
Thanks Nancy

Bertha Teska

Nancy,

The information I received from my family came from a photograph which has Bertha, her brother,Ed and her father, Henry Teska. The photo was taken in Waupaca, Wisconsin or East Bloomfield. Also pictured are Leopald and Caroline Teska, Bertha's grandparents. Amelia Teska, sister to Bertha's father, married a William Yohr.

Does any of this sound falmiliar to you? Would love to know what happened to Bertha and Ed!

I am tracking Johr/Yohr family tree and have some information on William and Amelia. She was his second wife and then I think she divorced him according to a newspaper account I found. Let me know if I can be of help with the family.
