In 1904, Friedrich Marx, with 16 years, had emmigrated to Chicago, Illinois, where his father's brother, Friedrich "Fred" Marx lived.
In Chicago, Fred met Augusta, who lived with the family of her brother Henry Schaper.
In 1909 both married in Oesdorf / Bad Pyrmont, Germany.
Similar to his uncle, Fred became a inn-keeper in Chicago. Together with him and after his uncle's death in 1919 alone (or together with his brother August Marx), he led until 1923/24 the "Marx Beer Tunnel", until 1932 the "Lincoln Turner Hall". From 1932 on, he was co-possessor of "Marx Restaurant", W. Adams Street. |
