Person:Paulina Glunz (1)

"Birth" record found by Karen Clickner in FHL Film for Hausen ob Verena, but on a family registry page for her parents. Her name, along with her sister's is written at the top of the page. It indicates that both she and her sister were born out of wedlock. (Her parents were married in 1850.) And that they were both born not in Hausen, but in Cannstadt. (Thought first that it read "Taufstadt" but no records found in those church records; then Karen Clickner found her death record in St. Peter's Church (Buffalo, NY), indicating her place of birth was CANNSTADT (suburb of Stuttgart).

Per John Lincoln Smith 4/9/1999 conversation with Jillaine Smith: "my notes state that in 1867 Pauline Glunz (age 20yrs) left Germany and came to America accompanied by her younger brother, Caspar (age 13yrs). Caspar subsequently lived in Buffalo at 89 Pershing Ave. Also, according to my notes, Pauline Glunz had several other siblings who came to America, namely: John Glunz, Fred Glunz, and Rose Glunz." [This has been confirmed by Karen Clickner that yes, all these siblings did indeed come over.]

Per 1989 letter from Genevieve Jauch Glunz to Dorothy Hemann: "Grandma [Pauline Glunz] Jauch was born in Switzerland near the border (Germany). I do know from other talks that Granma came over to the States when she was sixteen and brought her two little brothers with her -- Casper and Fred Glunz. Fred went to live in Detroit or Cleveland and had a second-hand furniture business there. I met him and his grandsons one time. He used to visit Grandma (Pauline Glunz Jauch) and always gave her a nice bit of money for her birthday. Maybe his family knows more about the voyage to USA. .... I do not know how they came to Buffalo - I'm wondering where a young girl would go on arriving. ... I'm guessing that she stayed with Elias and Katrina [Faude] Glunz on Mulberry Street.... she and her two brothers (also) could have stayed at the Church house-- St. Peters was German speaking church then. "

[From same letter, this time about Ludwig Jauch and Pauline Glunz:] "Their first house (rented, I guess) was on Mulberry Street up further from their house that they bought."

[Also from same letter:] "She [Pauline] came to our house every night, and always stayed there when Bert came up to Canada on his holidays, or vacations as you New Yorkers say. I was with her after she had a stroke and helped out. And I know your mother (Lizzy), Lena (Paulina Jauch Smith), Jennie (Genevieve), Kate came certain days of the week to help her. Henry, my dad, and Bert were good to her, and did see more of her than the others [her other children? she had many], but then some died young.... I was wondering if the immigration office would have a record of Grandma (Pauline) landing and her marriage-- now we are the only Glunzes in Canada and I'm sure Howard and Grandma's are the only ones in the states, so contact the brothers (of Pauline?) in Detroit (or Cleveland). It must be a big family as a few years aback, my son-in-law spotted an item in Readers Digest where this man, Glunz, hired a large bus and took all his relations to Florida. This man was the son or grandson, so there must be a lot of Glunzes there."

They don't really give us anything new except their baptismal dates: Rosina Catharina born 14 Dec 1848, baptized 31 Dec. Maria Rosina Paulina b. 13 June 1847, baptized 20 June.
