After sharing the photos of Annie Campuzano and Ernest J. Freilinger, I thought it would be good to look back at the available records on Ernest. He was born in Biwer, Luxembourg in 1883, and arrived in the US in New York in 1893 with his parents John, Marie and brothers Bernard, Ferdinand and Mattias. Ernest listed his brother Ferdinand (Fred) in his World War II Draft Card (above).
In 1909, Ernest married fellow immigrant Minnie Gross in Multnomah, Oregon, and they settled in Tucson, Arizona. Minnie passed away in 1914. Ernest and Annie Campuzano appear on a marriage license in April 1915, but they were not married until 10 February 1916. Annie's sister Rosa served as a witness on the marriage certificate.
