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.

More pictures

In the picture files--let's see what catches my eye this time:




 Aunt Fronie, Dad's cousin Louise and Mom--whose house, and when? Anybody know?
Uncle Tader and Dad, front steps in Helena, I think..Sit nice, Curly.  



 Mom and Aunt Millie, ignoring them.  Do you remember Mom EVER sitting like that?  (Always a surprise 😄)
 Aunt Fronie, Aunt Eileen and Aunt Irene..
at Janish's? Makes me smile...




 Uncle Henry and Aunt Millie.  If that was
baby Shirley under those overalls, then this was c. 1947.  Isn't it fun to see them both young, goofing off and laughing?
Grandma Hesch.  This would've been during the Depression, when the family lived "in the top of a barn".   I don't know who the guy is, but it doesn't look like Grandpa.  What'd you think?


The house in Royalton, where Grandma and Grandpa lived until Grandpa died in 1964. (It was where the high school is now, east of town).  Grandma moved into Royalton then.   It seems to me the tree stump there was where the pump was?  (😄 Doncha LOVE mysteries?)
