Friedrich Heinrich Bey was born in Castrop-Rauxel, Westphalia, Germany in 1890. He may have died in Saginaw County, Michigan. [If anyone has information on his place of death, please let me know. Thanks.]
On Nov. 3, 1910 he, age 20, and his brother, Ernst Bey, age 18, departed Antwerp for Boston on the the Red Star Line "SS Manitou." ("Ernest Bey" is buried in WI, see Find A Grave Memorial# 96934328.) They were among 57 passengers, and were the only 2 from Germany. It was their first time to the USA; they were booked to Plymouth, MA. (This it the hometown of his future wife. It is not clear if their families knew each other prior to this trip.) Fred and Ernst are listed as Occupation: Draftsmen, Nationality: Prussian, Race: German, having come from Bochum(?), Germany. They listed different "nearest relatives" addresses.
Their parents (Friedrich and Maria, ages 43 and 38; he an iron foundry locksmith (maybe?)) and younger siblings (Willy, Bernhard and Heim (Henry?), ages 16, 15, and 11)
had preceded them from Breman on the "SS George Washington" in Aug. 1910, also booked to Plymouth, MA.
He married Christine K. Rudolph on Oct. 10, 1917 in Ohio. It was a first marriage for each of them. They were both age 27, and both resided at 7705 Brinsmade Ave., Cleveland. (See photo.) He was a draftsman, and her occupation was "none". They were both born in Germany. His parents were Fred and Maria Hildebrand Bey. Her parents were William and Catherine Maser Rudolph.
He was naturalized in Cleveland, OH in 1923.
According to the Scandinavia Air Flight Manifesto on Sept. 2, 1951 he traveled from Copenhagen to NYC. (He was age 61. It does not appear that any other family members traveled with him.) At the time his address was 13340 Lorain Ave., Cleveland, OH. (See photo.) This was about 3 miles from the home they were living in at the time of their marriage.
The graves for his younger brothers Bernhard Karl and Henry George Bey have not been found. If anyone knows where they are, please let me know. Thanks.
