David Schroeder (Grandson of Wolfgang) and his wife, Lisa, recently found our website and have sent the pictures that  are on this website.   We appreciate their contribution to this site.

Family Portrait. 

Fred and Emma, their three grown children, spouses, and some grandchildren.
This picture dates to the early 1950's.  We can probably pinpoint the date by the baby's birth date.

House.  This picture was among the old family pictures.  Does anyone recognize the house?


The Children of Fred and Emma Schroeder

Fred and Emma had three children Irmgard, Wally and Wolfy.  We look forward to including information about each of the children and their families, as they find this website and contribute material.

Wolfgang Schroeder

We need family members to write a little biography of Wolfy that we can put on this page.

 This is a wonderful picture of him when he was in the service.

Havin' Fun !



View a slide show.

We have put together a slide show of 13 more family pictures.  The file is quite large and it may take a few minutes to download.  Click here to see the slide show.

This is the first time we have tried a slide show on this site.  There is always something new and exciting to learn.


Future Development

This page is a work in progress. 
As we have time and get more material, we will develop it further.

My mom was close to her cousins, Irmgard and Wally.  I have some good pictures and stories, too.  This is Wally and Bob on their wedding day.

We welcome contributions from the Edicks and other Schroeder families.

 

Thanks for visiting. 
Hope you will join our team and
email us  with pictures and stories.
