Mary W. Bucher

   Another name for Mary was Marie Bucher.¹

  Noted events in her life were:

1. She immigrated in 1901. ² The 1910 Census records she immigrated in 1901. She would be age 13.

2. She immigrated on the ship La Breteque on 4 Mar 1901 to New York, New York, NY. ¹ Ship: La Breteque
Sailing from Havre 23 Feb 1901
Arriving Port of New York 4th Mar 1901

Two people were traveling together:
Catherine Deutschmann, female, age 60, widow, from Paris, France
Marie Bucher, female, age 13, single, from Paris, France
Catherine had $16 cash, Marie none.
To the right of Catherine's name her final desination says "his son Mr. Wolfer, 2532 Richmond St., Philadelphia" and a bracket indicates this also applies to Marie.

[Note: the 1900 census shows an Antone Wolfson born in Germany living on Richmond St., and he in 1910 is found in Salford Twp., Montgomery Co., where we find another census listing for mother-in-law Catherine Wolfson living with Theresa Hollinger, her daughter, who married Hiram Hollinger. We therefore think Deutschmann is Catherine's maiden name. Salford Township is where in 1910 we find Mary Bucher living with her new husband, Carson Nase.].

3. Census in 1910 in Salford Twp., Montgomery, PA. ² Living on Allentown Road in Salford Township in 1910, the census lists Corson K Nase, cigar maker in a cigar factory, 25, married 5 years to Mary W. Nase, 21. She had given birth to 2 children, 1 still living in 1910: Mamie, age 3. Mary's birth place is France-German, as is her father's. Her mother's appears to be "Ger - German". [We note on other pages this census enumerator often wrote "Ger (German)".] Conrad and his parents were born in Pennsylvania. Mary immigrated in 1901 and could speak English in 1910 and read and write. Family stories mention that Mary came to America with her maternal grandmother, but we see no one who could be her on nearby census pages.

Mary married Carson K. Nase, son of John Nase and Emily, <1905> in Salford Twp., Montgomery, PA. (Carson K. Nase was born on 21 Aug 1883 in Salford Twp., Montgomery, PA and died in Nov 1966 in Telford, Montgomery, PA.)
