Notes:
Anna was engaged to a man in Neu-Isenberg, when she came to the USA to look for work and how living was in the USA. While in Chicago she got her hair cut short, had her picture made, and sent it back to her finance in Germany. He was upset that she got her hair cut, and she broke off the engagement. About that time she met Herman Schunk.
She knew of the Michigan Roemers in Sebewaing, and visited there.
