" I can only go back to her father, Ernest and not any further. I only know that she had an uncle who was a schoolteacher in that town and that she also had well-to-do relatives in in that town, Sindelfingen, who looked down on ther husband. I remember Mama, (Sophie) speaking of a street named after a relative of the family in Sindelfingen." - letter from Clara Stricker daughter of Sophie Schaefer Stricker.
