[Fourth Generation]
  1. John Berschauer born-? attempted to emigrate from Russia and died enroute to US. His widow and 2 children returned to Russia and married John's brother Alexander.

    2. The immigrant!
  2. Jacob John Berschauer Sr., born-17 Jan 1885 in Saratov Russia area, died-30 May 1964 in Holyoke, Co; married-Katharina Margaretha Templing, born-10 May 1885, died-4 Jun 1932
    In 1911 with Katharina pregnant Jacob sold all his worldly belongings and during a holiday leave from the Army; fled Russia for Germany. Sale of his belongings yeilded $400.00 and this would be enough to cover train fare across Germany to Hamburg and then fare from Hamburg to Baltimore, Maryland, USA, let alone enough to start a new life there. Jacob arranged for travel by ship to Baltamore. Jacob's tickets called for a short lay-over in Baltimore and then with financial aid from the US Government they were transported by train to Hoisington, Kansas. Jacob knew no English and picked up all he knew from day to day encounters with Americans. His sister Lena had immigrated to America prior to the time that Jacob and his family arrived here. Lena married Henry Gideon in the old country and he traveled to Hoisington prior to sending for Lena. Her letters spoke of heaven on earth and opportunity for young ambitious immigrants. This is what enticed Jacob to choose Kansas as his new home. For full details see Ron Berschauers Historical documentation.
