General Notes for Child August Herman SCHNEIDER
August Herman Schneider was born on October 7, 1862 (possibly 1861, from
marriage record ) to Edward and Henrietta (Drews) Schneider in Kalisch,
Kries Berent, Region Danzig, West Prussia (per church marriage record).
He migrated to the US in about 1884 according to Federal Census
questionnaires (1910, 1920, 1930).
On February 27, 1886 he married Ida Paulina Thrun at Trinity Lutheran
Church, Port Huron. Ida, who for unknown reasons later became known as
Edith, was born on May 5, 1866 to John and Caroline (Hering) Thrun in
Sommicu, Pommern, Prussia (per Trinity marriage record). Her family
migrated to the US in about 1870 (obituary). August and Ida/Edith became
naturalized U.S. citizens.
Their first three children-William, Bertha and Herman-were born and
baptized in Port Huron. The family moved to Detroit and from about 1894
to 1896 lived with brother Rudolph at 434 Lansing Street and other nearby
addresses. The next two children, Lina and Fredrich, were born there.
By 1903 the family had permanently moved back to Port Huron. Known
addresses there were on 10th Street (1910) and Griswold Street (1930).
August's jobs included a laborer on the steam railroad. Arthur Louis
Schneider recalls August was very tall and closely resembled his brother
Rudolph. Edith/Ida died on Oct 27, 1934. August died on January 8, 1941.
Sadly, they lie in unmarked graves in Lakeside Cemetery, H560. According
to Edith's 1934 obituary, surviving were three sons, two daughters, and
nine grandchildren.
The families of brothers Rudolph and August had frequent contacts during
the early years. The last known gathering was at the Detroit funeral of
William Edward Schneider in 1964. Herman (usual 614 Division address),
Lora, and Linwood and his wife signed the guest book According to
Rudolph family cousins, the Port Huron clan seemed to fish the St Clair
River "all the time." They recall that Bertha sometimes delivered fish
to the Lansing Ave. clan and that they sometimes joined in the fishing at
Port Huron.
Researched by Brent Bertram, Katherine Mitchell, and James C. Schneider,
as of August 22, 2005.

General Notes for Child Rudolf Alexander SCHNEIDER
Rudolph Schneider was born in Dec 1863 in Prussia, Germany. He emigrated
to the United States in 1886, arriving in New York Nov 16, 1886, aboard
the ship "La Champagne" from Havre. He was 23 years old and had no
listed occupation. He was naturalized as an American citizen May 12,
1888 in Wayne County, Detroit, Michigan. Two years late, on Jan 2, 1890
he married Augusta Rafinski in Detroit, Michigan and proceeded to build a
family. By the 1900 census, the couple have 5 children, Rudolph is
listed as a harness maker, and they reside at 434 Lansing Ave, Detroit,
Mi. By the 1910 census, Rudolph is working as a laborer for the Standard
Oil Company, and the count of children is at 8. The 1920 census lists
Rudolph Schneider as an auto factory worker and apparently renting out an
upstairs apartment to his daughter Freida and her husband Martin Terrence
Bertram and Martin's mother, Catherine Laura Barbour.
