  • Notes 
    • No relation to the Rosenbaum family. He was "bought" to provide a husband for Carolyn ("Carrie"). Samuel went to New York to find Ludwig, and Louis, Goddie and Edwin were all required to come up with the purchase price, or dowry. Ludwig was a tailor, and took the dowry to open his own tailor shop in New York. In a short time, he went broke so the family brought Ludwig and Carrie to Kalamazoo and give him a job in the stock room at the factory. He was a kindly, loveable, ineffectual man. Some time later, Ludwig's brother, Adolph, arrived in Kalamazoo and went to work in the cutting room at the factory. He was a handsome man with rosy cheeks -- he died of "consumption" (TB). Adolph was quite a womanizer and reportedly screwed most of the younger single girls who worked in the sewing room. [1]
