1899, Oct. 6. - Else Mathilde Johanna Kiesel, their daughter, is
baptised in Tacoma, Washington in an evangelical German Lutheran
church by F. N. Wolf, pastor. In witness to the baptism is Johanna
Augustin Mathilde Shock. She is apparently the wife of Gustave

(Shock) Kiesel. [photocopy in possession of Cheryl Grubb]

Germany and shows he immigrated in 1887; This means he would have

Danzig, Germany
