This branch of the Austrian Hesch family is descended from Johann Hesch and his wife Marya (Schlinz) Hesch, who came to America from Oberschlagles, Bohemia with three sons: Paul, Mathias, and Anton. +++Johann & Marya settled in Buffalo County, Wisconsin but moved to Pierz, Mn in about 1885. .+++Mathias settled in Waumandee, Wisconsin and moved to Pierz in 1911. +++Anton never married but farmed with his dad in Agram Township, where he died in 1911.+++And Paul, my great grandfather, settled five miles away, in Buckman, Minnesota. He died there in 1900.

Hmm...

I see I need to post pictures in a small size so that they're clickable--so they bigify when you click on the picture.

I'll do that from now on...lol If there's one that's already here, and you want me to make clickable, just leave it in a comment, ok?

(I went back and re-loaded the Grandkids picture in a small version, but it didn't work...so it's back in the "large" size. Still, the pic of Mathias Heschs' gravestone DOES work--go figger!)
