Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Heinrich Andreas Reitz was born on 3 Jan 1872 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia; died on 28 Apr 1904 in St Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota, USA.

    Other Events:

    • Reference Number: 424

    Notes:

    Heinrich Andreas Reitz, Katharina Dittenbir and children appear on the Kukkus Reitz Surname Chart prepared by Dr, Igor Pleve. It would be assumed that the children were all born in Kukkus, however American records leave no doubt that all the children were born in the USA. Also Katherine Dittenbir lists her immigration to the USA in 1898. It would seem that the parents communicated with the church in Kukkus after immigrating and their childrens births were then entered into the Kukkus church records, where they were found many years later by Dr. Pleve.
    Also the 1886 Kukkus Family List has a note that Andreas died in America 28 Apr 1904, as furthur evidence of entering American events in the Kukkus records.

    The family has seen his death card and newspaper articles about the work accident in 1904 which killed him. The Reitz surname chart had 1909.

    Heinrich married Kathatina Dittenber in 1896. Kathatina (daughter of Johannes Dittenber and Katharina Barbara Johannes) was born in 1879 in Kukkus, Samara, Russia; died on 3 Oct 1924 in Baroda, Berrien, Michigan, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Johann George Reitz appears in the Kukkus church records. Apparently he and his siblings were added there after the parents left Kukkus in 1898. This would explain why Dr. Pleve shows the entire family in Kukkus, as he build his chart, in part, from the church records!
    In the American records, the name George J. Reitz seems to be consistantly used.

    Birth:
    This appears to be a typo for 1/1/1904

    Birth:
    perhaps the family list is not very legible.

    Family/Spouse: Lydia Unknown. Lydia was born about 1906 in Russia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
