Margaret Seger and Peter Jung - Census Reports

NOTE: This information is speculative. Many of the details on these census reports match information that we have about Margaret Seger and Christian Seger, siblings.

Although Christian Seger is listed as a boarder it would seem unusual to have a non-family person living in the household for over twenty years. Christian Seger died 18 Jan 1907.

In 1920 Anna E Jung, age 34, widowed, & a niece {of Bernard or Rose??}, is living in the household of Rose Seger, widow of Bernard Seger. This would indicate a connection between the Jung and Seger families. Does anyone have additional information that would prove or disprove a family relationship??

Saint Boniface Catholic Cemetery was the first of the German cemeteries and contains the burials of the builders of the German Catholic community. The cemetery underwent extensive renovation in the 1960’s, with the old archway entrance on Clark Street removed to permit better vehicle passage. A new office, chapel and service building were constructed on property acquired to the north. Saint Boniface is presently out of grave space. The cemetery also supervises Saint Henry Cemetery, which has a limited number of graves available.

St. Boniface Catholic Cemetery is located on Chicago's North side, at Clark Street and Lawrence Avenue, four blocks north of Graceland. It was dedicated in 1863 to serve the German Catholic community.

The cemetery is named for Saint Boniface, who died in 754 A.D. after 36 years as a missionary. Saint Boniface was known as "The Apostle of Germany", who died in 754 A.D. after 36 years as a missionary. Saint Boniface was known as "The Apostle of Germany".
