Auguste Caroline BIERWIRTH
I've recovered an old photograph of Auguste Caroline BIERWIRTH which was taken on 25 April 1901 at the C. T. Pomeroy Studio in Kansas City, MO. Auguste's birthday is noted as 19 Feb 1898 in Green Bay, WI. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Auguste and her family:
Augusta Carolyn BIERWIRTH was b. 19 Feb 1898 in Huron Bay, WI to parents Ernst Anton or Anson Gerhard BIERWIRTH (b. 1860) and Sophie Helene Ferdinandine Caroline or Karoline EGGERSS (1862 or 1863-1952 or 1958) who were married 10 Feb 1885 in Persia, IA. Augusta had two siblings including Georg or George Frederich “Fred” Carl BIERWIRTH (1890-1959) and Elsa Wilhelmina Augusta BIERWIRTH (1892-1984). Augusta was married three times, first to Percival “Percy” Charles EASON (1893-1968) on 28 Apr 1920 or 1 May 1920 in Kansas City, MO; second marriage was to Carl O. SCHUTTE (b. 1893) on 30 Jan 1948 in Sebastian, AR; and third on in 1965 in Seattle, WA though I don’t have his name.
Some records also include Augusta using the last names of GUSHEL and HEULER suggesting that there may have been additional marriages or one of them could be the name of her third husband. Augusta died 4 Dec 1974 in Seattle, WA.
I am hoping to locate someone from her family so that this beautiful old photograph can be returned to her family. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
