Teske/Heuer Family German Heritage - Thanks Elaine, Katherine, Arlene, Marian, Ron and Luke for the information.
The purpose of this page is to learn about folks from previous generations, Grandparents of Marvin Teske. Without these people, born in the 1800's, pre-Civil War, none of us would be here today. Hope you enjoy learning more about them. There's a lot here, so you're welcome to return to the site as often as you'd like.
This first image is from our first website from a few years back. This page has additional info vs what was available then.

Our history includes the Crescent City Fire, where Grandma and Grandpa and many others lost their house in 1970. I'll never forget the mushroom clouds from explosions as the train cars carrying liquid propane blew up one by one. It was a miracle no one was killed.
