The missing Freudenberg child that died on May 1, 1879



A second Freudenberg mystery solved today thanks to the revamped Familysearch.org. All this information was probably there in their database for a decade but was inaccessible because of their terrible user interface that restricted even the simplest searches. I always knew my grandfather was 1 of 15 children, my mom told me that and it was confirmed in the census. Of the 15 only 9 lived to adulthood and only 5 went on to have grandchildren. Today I found the death of the missing, 15th child, it was their first and he died, un-named on May 1, 1879.
