BIOGRAPHY:
http://webspace.webring.com/people/gu/um_5169/feist_line.html
Everyone seems to have the elusive family line,always
around but not quite the connection. The FEIST line is
mine. Mary Elizabeth (Mamie)HOFMANN was said to
"intermarry" with Edward F.FEIST (My Grandfather). I can find
no reason for the "inter" marriage part.Both lines were
Catholic and as far as I can tell and I have found no
relatives that they share.
Mary Elizabeth (Mamie)FEIST-HOFMANN Edward F FEIST Wedding Photo Sept. 16 1923 Edward Frederich FEIST arrived from Germany (the Ruhr Valley Region) sometime in the 1870's.He married, settled in Brooklyn,had children and made his fortune as a Baker. At one time he owned a bakery on Knickerbocker Ave. in Brooklyn, New York.
Rumor is that he and a brother Frederich had a "falling out" and never spoke to each other even though they lived a few blocks from each other. Ironically,they are both buried in Most Holy Trinity Cemetery in Brooklyn, NY. side by side in different grave sites.How sad to live in Eternity together and not have shared their lives.
What I do know is contains here-in. Look on in over at Census Records and Scattered Leaves for more FEIST facts.

Jly1893 D.6Aug1954 Sp:McCREADY,Clara Pearl Burial Most Holy Trinity Cemetery Most Holy Trinity Cemetery in Brooklyn New York USA seems to have been the "Family" choice for burials. Frederich and his family and his wife ALBERS are there. It is now operated under Catholic Cemetery in Middle Village Queens,NY.They have always been extremely helpful to me in my searches.Please stop and take a look at"Scattered Leaves"for random burials in the FEIST,HOFMANN line. Other surnames:BURKART/variations of spellings,LITTLE/GEIBACH/TRYEE/BYREE(spelling var.)
