South Atlanta. She was married to
Michael Schick. Church service were held at Immaculate Conception & she

I visited the
Westview Cemetery in
Atlanta and obtained the grave information: Section 8 / Row 1 / plot
1S - no grave marker and no other information was in file.

information that I have found regarding associations
and connections to the Schick's from Mercydorf to the US . . .

Mercydorf. Mother Margit Schick still lived in Mercydorf, Hungary

Speichermann, Borbala (see frame 1) was joining Jacob
Zimmer @ 330 E. 126 St., NY NY (if we are considering
him the same person) he was still living up to July 29,
1906. This narrows his death date to July 29, 1906
to June 7, 1908. |
