According to his obituary, Johannes (aka John F) was "a native Schleswig-Holstein, Germany". The Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein are among areas that were ruled alternately either independently, together, or by another European power. At the time of his birth, the Duchy of Holstein was part of Denmark.

His father, Hans Christian Theodor BANNICK, died in Holstein a few years before John's and brother Christian’s immigration (ca.1872) to the US. Their sister, Wilhelmine, and mother, Henriette, followed them to the US about nine years later, finally settling in San Francisco (after nearly a decade residence in NYC.) It is unknown what happened to the other sister, Helene Johanne Henriette, who, it is believed, never emigrated from Germany.

John had no children, however, he and his wives raised two of his nieces, Dorothea Magdalena "Dora" and Marguerite/Margarethe Luise "Margaret", after the death of their mother Fredericke (Christian pre-deceased Frieda).

Johannes was buried on 23 Jan 1918, in his 2nd wife's family plot [Kadel]. He shares Plot 2, Lots 122 and 124, Grave 3, with “Marie”. His mother, brother, and members of Christian's family are interred across the SF Bay, at Woodlawn Memorial Park in Colma, San Mateo County, CA. Sister, Wilhelmine, is interred just down the road from Woodlawn, in Cypress Lawn Memorial Park, with husband Adolph BEETZ and many of the Beetz family members.

(update 18 Apr 2017) Although Rendsburg was technically under Danish rule at the time of their births, the family considered themselves to be German.
