| 20134 | North Tonawanda NY Evening News - 12/29/1979 THIS BIT of family history from Mary K. Sciandra of Buffalo: "I don't know why my greatgrandfather decided to leave Bergholtz, Brandenburg, Prussia, in 1873, but he knew he was going - to a new life. "My grandmother, Maria Wittkopf, was only three. Sister Augusta was six and baby brother Albert six months. Six more children were born to Christian and Wilhelmina, all bona fide Americans. "The German immigrant adapted generally well to the American ways and usually by the next generation the mother tongue was almost lost. "The people were religious, most being Lutherans. St. Johns, St. Peters, St. Marks and St. Matthews Church registrars are full of German names. Each written in German, ir. the old German script, each a history of a family, the good and the sad. "My great-grandfather had a farm on Nash Road. It was while living here that my grandmother, now called Mary, met my grandfather, August Harms. He was about 23 and came from Gruenhof, Mecklenburg. "My grandparents lived in Wheatfield for a number of years. About 1900, they and their children and my great-grandfather (who was now a widower) built a house on East Robinson Street in North Tonawanda. It was in this house that the first generation to the new land, my greatgrandfather, died, and also where in 1910 my dad, Theodore, was born. My dad's brother, Benjamin, still lives in this house. "My dad lived all his young years in North Tonawanda. He and mom lived there for several years after their marriage and although I was born in Williamsville, my earliest memories are of North Tonawanda. "Dad was a volunteer fireman at the Sweeney Hose. We spent many summer days at the fireman's picnics. Dad would parade with the firemen. I can still smell the chowder and remember how good the creme soda tasted. Mom would take the younger three of her six children to the park which was across from the hose company at this time, so that we could play in the swings. "Dad passed away in 1978. My mom, wanting to show him a last sign of her love, had him brought back 'home' to North Tonawanda. He is buried in White Chapel Cemetery, resting now not far from where his life began, a place he loved, North Tonawanda, Niagara County, U.S.A."
