Almost certainly the party that arrived in Baltimore on the ship Leipzig out of Bremen on July 7, 1880 consisted of Friedrich, his wife (whose name is obliterated) and Carl age 2 1/2 years. Friedrich's age and that of Carl/Charles perfectly matches a "Rietzel" household in Chicago in 1900. Friedrich/Fritz was a carpenter. His marriage license back in Germany gives his occupation as that of a ship's carpenter. The spelling is 'Riedesel' in many documents but it appears that the descendants preferred 'Rietesel." He may have been the Frederick Rietesel who was naturalized on October 25, 1892.

Feige Henrich [Male]

The only documented mention I have of him is as the father of an illegimate child in 1830. I strongly suspect that he was the brother of the man known as "Johann Georg Fey."

Homrighausen Auguste Caroline Elise [Female] b. 14 NOV 1869 Milwaukee, Milwaukee, Wisconsin - d. 4 MAR 1942 Dresden, Sachsen, Germany

I wish I knew more of her life story! Though born in the U.S., she married a German national and had two sons in Germany. She died and was cremated in Dresden during World War II. It is possible that she died because of the war, but Dresden itself was only (and controversially) bombed by the Allies in February, 1945. At least the older son was in America by the time of her death, and both sons died here. Her husband's family had noble origins, though were not necessarily well-to-do.

Reportedly born in Wunderthausen, most likely in the house Auf der Leye. It is almost certain that she accomopanied her mother to America in 1835 on the ship Apollo, sailing from Bremen to New York. Several others from the village were on board, and we know that some of them settled in Warren County, New Jersey.
