Ernst Albin Bochman, my wife's grandfather was born in the village of Oelsnitz, in the Landkreis, Lichtenstein in Saxony 14 Apr 1867 and died in New Bedford, Bristol County, MA 26 May 1933. According to what little information I have he came to this country quite young and worked at first in the mills and then worked as a custodian for the school department. I understand that his father was Carl G. Bochmann who also lived in New Bedford. His wife Bertha pre deceased him in 1920.They had three sons, Albert, Alfred, and Harry, Three daughters, Laura,
Estelle, and Bertha.
