| Notes |
- Not in Muskegon w/ WB in 1887
---------------------------
Played Mary at the famous Passion Play in Oberammergau. Friends of Cardinal Gibbons - enrolled Mary and Austin at St. Charles Cathedral Convent School in Baltimore,Md. - Pretty sure it is now called The School of the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen. Found a reference to the old days when the school was on Mulberry St. on their web site.
Possibly spelled Foerster - Mom
spelled Foster on her daughter's birth cert.
Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is at corner of Cathedral and Mulberry - probably T's church
[Looking for Foersters in Baltimore - why move there? -
Michael Foerster, shoemaker, 222 N. Castle - 1.5 m away, but Right on the same trolley line
John G., 34 Albemarle, less than a mile
John E., 1632 N. Gay St. - 2.5 miles
Ernest J. 121 S. B’way - less than 2 miles
looks like there were a few at least, and a LOT of Forsters nearby too]
