4. MIKE3 EISENZIMMER (JOHN2, EISENZIMMER1) was born in Not sure 1892 1893. He married (2) KATHERINE KELLER. He married (1) MAGADELINA FOLK.

Notes for MIKE EISENZIMMER: Buried in Devils Lake, ND

Notes for MAGDELINA FOLK:
Mike's first wife died in 1924, leaving 5 kids, 10 Madadelina, (Died Dec. of 1999), the oldest, then Katherine, Mike, Frank, and 2 or 3 old Sebastian.

The step mother apparently raised them. Frank went off to war (WWII) and was killed at a young age (very early 20's. He, by the way, has a daughter named Francesca, but we don't know where she Island Last anyone in our family knew was that she lived in Maine and was getting married, but we don't know the married name. )
Si left home, don?t know what age or any more about him other than that he died around 1997 and was living in the Washington DC area.

After his first wife died Mike married Katherine Keller. One or more of his sons from the first marriage worked in the CCC camps building parks, roads etc. They left the home as soon as they could.

Magdelina left home at the age of 18. By that time Marie, Ray, Floyd and Alice had been born. She was aware that there were more kids after that, but she had cut all ties by then and didn't even know their names. She never went back to North Dakota, not even for Mike's funeral when he died - that is how bitter it was. She had a daughter, 2 months old when that happened, I think.

CORRESPONDENCE:
From: Angie
Date: Fri, 17 May 2002

I am pretty sure the first Eisenzimmer was named John.

Descendants of John Eisenzimmer

Notes for JOHN EISENZIMMER 1:
John was born in a small town in Germany. Name ...

JOHN 2 EISENZIMMER (EISENZIMMER1) was born in Germany. He married ELIZABETH BURKHARD. She was born in Germany.

The oldest sons, Balzer and Leopold left the family behind and went to the United States, which they entered through Ellis Island, New York. (Ellis Island has no record of them that I could find. Balzer's Daughter, Regina Eisenzimmer Steffan, (Angie's Mom) said Balzer had an eye infection and he was to be sent back. Somehow they got into New York and then to ND. What Balzer had was pinkeye, which cleared up. Back then they didn't know anything about pinkeye.)

The government put many of these immigrants on trains and sent them inland. Balzer and Leopold ended up in Devils Lake, ND, and found work at Calvary Square in Ft. Totten, just south of Devils Lake.

I can only imagine the bravery that these two young men must have had to do all this!

They eventually saved enough money to bring their parents and other brothers to the United States. All arrived safely and traveled to Devils Lake, except for John who stayed in New York to work. (There was a rumor that he met with foul play and was never heard of again.)

Children of JOHN EISENZIMMER and ELIZABETH BURKHARD are:
2. i. BALZER3 EISENZIMMER, b. August 24, 1881, Russia; d. Abt. June 29, According to card.
3. ii. LEO EISENZIMMER, (Leopold) b. June 27, 1883, Russia.
iii. ANDREW EISENZIMMER, b. Russia.
Notes for ANDREW EISENZIMMER:
Don't know about him
4. iv. MIKE EISENZIMMER, b. Not sure 1892 1893.
v. FRED EISENZIMMER.
Notes for FRED EISENZIMMER:
Fred left home. They got a telephone call from New York, he was buying a car. Believed to have gone to Alaska. Never heard from him again.
vi. JOHN EISENZIMMER, b. Russia.
Notes for JOHN EISENZIMMER:
Born 1897 The baby of the family. He stayed in New York to work. The rest of the family went to Devils Lake, ND. Family thought he was killed, foul play.

Generation No. 2

2. BALZER 3 EISENZIMMER (JOHN 2, EISENZIMMER 1) was born August 24, 1881 in Russia, and died Abt. June 29 in According to card. He married (1) CATHERINE KURTZ in Devils Lake, ND. She was born 1889 in Russia, and died February 26, 1923 in Devils Lake, ND. He married (2) SCHOLASTICA Schell, a widow.(maiden name ). She died October 28 in Devils Lake, ND. He married (3) MARGARET STOPPLER, a widow (maiden name . She was born November 23, 1881, and died January 18, 1964. (In Washington I believe.)

Wife Catherine or Catherina? Eisenzimmer Age 24, Regina Age 5, Leobolt Age 4, Joe Age 1, all reside at Devils Lake. Minnewaukan Ave.
When their son Joseph was born, Balzer is listed at 31 years old, Catherine 21. A discrepancy somewhere?
Balzer gave the date of Joe?s birth, listed as the closest memory of the event. (this info was given Dec.16, l941.) Nov. 30th birth, school records from Ramsey County list his birthday as the 23rd. Some other say 11-18-1912
School records from St. Mary?s list it as the 30th. Birth Certificate says November 30, 1912
Balzer signed papers as Baldaser Baldazar Another way? Baldzier (Baltzar miss spelled?) Balthasar

Died of stroke at 74. One paper said his birthday was on the 14, but the rest are all 24.
Note: Grandpa Balzer Eisenzimmer had rickets as a child, perhaps causing the bowlegs? Making him shorter?

His little burial card says he was buried July 2, 1955, so probably died June 29 or 30.

He stepped on a mine somewhere. Was thrown up and hit the ground. No obvious wounds. After this he would wake up in the mornings with swollen feet. It got bad enough he went to the Dr. (Red Cross he said). By the time he got up and dressed and made it over to the Dr. the swelling would be down.
