Geisheimer #1 Mysteries

        After many months (I know it's not that long a time) of research I have come up with some
Geisheimer mysteries. Please read them and if you have any advice I would be happy to hear from you.

* Did a Geisheimer go back to Germany to claim an inheritance in the late 1920's?
        "Sometime in 1929 a will was sent over from Germany from a member of the family to relatives here.  It stated they owned a brewery and there was some kind of an inheritance.  However, you had to go to Germany to claim it.  In 1929 jobs were scarce and no one dared to take off from work.   The relatives who received a copy and agreed to chip in for the fare for one relative to go,  he lived in Irvington, NJ.  He took the money, went  and was never heard from again."
