Max Emil Rieck

Max Emil Rieck is the son of Karl August Rieck and Hulda Yenika (or Jenika). He was born 10 Nov 1872 in Adamsdorf, Stettin, Prussia (a part of modern day Germany). He was married to Gertrude Magaret Yeager (or Jager). I currently have only one child on record for them:

Melvin Turner Rieck 30 Mar 1909

Max died on 1 Jan 1964 in Nebraska. He is buried in the Rose Hill Cemetery with his wife. Their headstone can be viewed here.






According to the back of their headstone (shown below) they had four children. I'm not sure how Melvin fits in or if his name is really a mistake in my records. I've found him in the SSDI; however, I may have him linked to the wrong parents. The children listed on the back of Max's headstone are:

Lucille 11 Sep 1915-28 Oct 1928

Marie 16 May 1899-25 May 1917

Amanda 20 Nov 1900-26 Apr 1915

Albert 14 Apr 1902-30 May 1902
