FRENCK, Herman & DAESCHNER, Sadie

SADIE DAESCHNER & HERMAN FRENCK

Identification on photo: Sadie and Herman Frenck
Photo taken: unknown photographer in Chicago IL, 1914
Purchased: Kamin's Moment in Time, Feb 2020 South Florida Fairgrounds

UPDATE - This photo has been sent home to Herman's great-niece.
This photograph was most likely taken on 26 Feb 1914 in Chicago IL, as according to Cook County Marriage records, that was the date of the marriage of Herman Frenck and Sadie Clara Daeschner.

Sadie Daescher (b. 15-Oct-1889, d. 21-Dec-1915) was born in Barrington ILL to parents John Jacob Daeschner (1858-1955) and Anna Marie Hoffman (1863-1932). Her siblings are:
 - Julian Daeschner (of Montana)
 - Edward Daeschner (of Elgin IL) (1885-1958)
 - Florence Ethel Daeschner (1893-1985)

Sadie apparently gave birth to a son "John Frenck" who was born and died in 1915. Sadie, in her obit, is said to have had a lingering illness for 6 weeks, and died in late December of 1915.

Herman Carl Frenck (1891-1967) was born in Germany to parents Theodore John Frenck and Fredericke Holtfreter. Following the death of Sadie and son John, he remarried Margaret E. Sheehy, who is buried next to him at the East Dundee Cemetery in Kane County, ILL.

This interesting tidbit was found in The Chicago Sun, 25 Jan 1947.
