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.

Gull Lake memories : a history of the town of Gull Lake, Saskatchewan

Just LOOK what Larry found!  After all these years, we finally have a photo of grandma Lizzy's oldest brother, Joe Sand.  It says he died in 1967, so the photo is older than that, but isn't it COOL?

Wow....just WOW.
Oh, I almost forgot--here's the link to the Gull Lake book..  It was published in 1989. 

THANK YOU, Larry!
