  • Notes 
    • BIRTH: 28 Apr 1876 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia to ethnic German parents
      NAME: Born Johannes Felsing. He went by Johannes Felsing on his info in the early years. Later he used John Felsing.
      PARENTS: Johann Philipp Felsing and Katherine Margaretha Baum
      IMMIGRATION: He immigrated on the SS Lauenburg arriving on March 1, 1898 in Galveston, Texas. He is number 29 on the passenger list. The column that asks where will you be staying is marked 'Aug Hergen', possibly August Hergenröder. Tthe name cousin is next to it. I can not find anyone with that name living in Nebraska at that time. Also if you look up further on the name list there is someone listed with last name Klemm who looks like they have the same info listed as Johannes for 'Aug Hergen'.

      DEATH: 17 Oct 1967 in Au Gres, Arenac, MI
