About Bernhardt/Bernhard Gassenheimer

See S. Meen, The Samuel & Charlotte (née Stein) GASSENHEIMER Family, https://judeninthemar.org/the-samuel-lotte-gassenheimer-family/ and Descendants List: Bernhardt & Ella (née Holland) Gassenheimer https://judeninthemar.org/descendants-list-bernhardt-ella-nee-holla...

Bernhardt Gassenheimer was the one child of Samuel and Lotte (née Stein) to leave Germany and immigrate into the United States. He left Themar in 1880, 15 years old, and sailed to New York City. In 1890, he married an American born woman, Ella Holland. Ella gave birth to ten children, one of whom was stillborn, and several of whom did not live out of childhood. We know most about four of Bernhardt’s and Ella’s children: Rudolf, b. 1900; Gertrude, b. 1902; Walter, b. 1906; and Joseph, b. 1908
