| Miscellaneous Information |
| 1) There is a discrepancy in spelling: In the
family Bible (and in St. Petersburg records), the name is spelled Eleonore, but most often it is seen as
Elenora. For consistency, I have spelled it as it is written in the
family Bible - Eleonore.
2) Eleonore emigrated from Russia to the United States in
1899, and was naturalized in PA. At the time of the 1910 census, she could not speak English, nor
could she read or write.
3) On 09 May 1908, Eleonore's second husband, Gustav, was appointed guardian of
three of Eleonore's children
(Bernhard, Erick and Herman) from her first marriage to Edward Biberdorf.
4) I have copies of five documents and letters that refer to the crops
that Eleonore's husband (Gustav) raised on the land that was willed to his step-children (Bernhard,
Erick and Herman) by their father, Edward Biberdorf. Gustav was
guardian of those children, and the money earned from the crops that were raised
on that land had to be documented and given to the children. The letters are dated from December 1908 to October 1914.
5) I have a copy of Eleonore's
obituary; cause of death: myocarditis and endocarditis.
