| Note | Benjamin, the youngest brother and, according to Mom, Grandpa's favorite. Of all the family, only he wrote in German, and that heavily larded with French words and Alsatian patois expressions, idioms, and spellings. He was a concierge or door-keeper, either of a factory or of a luxurious home, and was on call night and day by a Comisaire or "Commissioner", either his term for his boss or the title of his master. He was married to a woman from Lorraine, and had two children, Charles who at 14 was already working in a draftsman's office, and a girl eight years younger. We know nothing of these cousins or Pauline Jacquel (Jacquet) who remained in France, but there must be descendants somewhere. |
