Notes for Joseph MEYER


When Joe was 10 or 11 yrs old his folks help found a new village of neu-Elsass.  
Joe's dad up and left the old country in 1914 right when the crops were ready
for harvest. He must have had some word about trouble with the Bolshevics to
leave so suddenly.  The family first came to Regina Canada and very soon
thereafter to Richardton ND where a farm was for sale. Joe was 16 when his
father died and he was sent off to live at his sister Barbara's (married to
Michael Leier) farm in Blumenfeld area.
