Family/Spouse: Maria "Mary" Jesse. Maria (daughter of Andrew Jesse and Mary Bajrovik) was born on 1 Mar 1835 in Strelitz, Kreis Kolmar, Posen, Prussia; died on 23 Mar 1914 in Sherman Township, St. Joseph County, Michigan. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

The 1900 Federal Census for St. Joseph County, Michigan reflects that Maria Fenske was the mother of six children, two of whom were living in 1900. As Savery Fenske was the only other Fenske in St. Joseph that was born in Germany, it appears that he most likely was one of the two surviving children of Maria, the other being her son John Fenske, with whom she lived. At the time of the 1930 census, he was living in District 4, Kent County, Delaware.
