Notes for this person

Wilhelm came to this country in 1913 and went to San Franciso, CA to work

as a lithographer. His brother Maximillian was there and was apparently

his sponsor. Maximillian was his oldest brother. Max eventually

returned to Munich, Germany - perhaps to care for their mother,

Victoria. Max committed suicide during WWII as things were very bad at

that time.

Wilhelm used the name William Brune until after WWII when he had his name

changed legally. The story was that he found it difficult to find a job

because he was German. Germans found it rather hard in this country

during both the First World War and the Second World War. It is unknown

whether Cecile ever knew of the change. It was never mentioned during

Wilhelm's lifetime.

His life is a mystery between the years 1913 and 1929 when he married

Cecile in St. Louis, MO.
