CORRESPONDENCE:
Jeannette M. Harper provided most of the ancestors in the Pimsner family tree and pointed out where our Michael D. Pimsner fit into her tree. See her website at http://www.budlink.us/JT_webcards/wc_toc.htm

RESIDENCES:
1918 - Westpark (per deed)
1920 - 3429 W. 58th St. (per 1920 census)

NOTE: #1 - Possible brother-in-law to Gustav R. Richter (wife - Margaret) of 3439 W.53rd St. The 1910 census shows a Michael Pimsner living with the couple, however, the 1920 census shows TWO Michaels, so it is uncertain as to whether this is the same individual as the one later married to Mathilda Rozhon. Perhaps Michael's obituary would list any siblings which might clear this up.

NOTE: #2 - Found a deed for property at W.58th Street. Sellers were Gustav and Margaret Richter! Buyers were Michael and Mathilda Pimsner. This seems to confirm that a relationship exists between Michael and Margaret Richter.

NOTE: #3 - A check of obituaries for Richters turned up an Elizabeth, wife of August and mother of Gustav (and many others) who lived at 3418 W. 58th St.

NOTE: #4 - Could not find any marriage records to support that either a Richter man had married a Pimsner woman, nor that a Richter woman had married a Pimsner man (at least not in Cleveland records).

NOTE: #5 - An obituary for Margaret Richter, married to Gustave Richter, shows her maiden name to be Pimsner and lists Michael as her brother.
