"According to Cousin Erdman, they met when Grampa Theinert was teaching English to German immigrants. Gramma T. lived in Albany, NY before meeting Grampa T., so where they actually met is vague. I also can not find the year Gramma immigrated. Prior to Grampa marrying Gramma and moving to Providence, he lived in Holyoke, as stated above.
Uncle Ed said he was five when they married, so I think it was probably very early 1883." Thanks to Gail

Biography
'In 1914, Erdman was nominated as a candidate for RI Governor by the Socialist Party. He received approximately 1450 votes.
All of the children graduate from the Albion Grammar School. Walter and William work the farm with Erdman. Anne goes on to become a nurse and Lillian a school teacher.
February 18, 1919, Rosalie marries Paul Schwarze (B. Germany 1891), and they live in an apartment in Pawtucket, RI. Paul’s mother, Emma, lives in the apartment above. Their son, Erdman Paul is born on March 2, 1927. Erdman told me they owned the State Line Garage
(Pawtucket/ South Attleboro State Line). They lived across and down the street from the garage. Eventually, when his Dad became more involved in the weaving mill, he sold the garage. Rosalie met Paul when she worked as a secretary in the mill. Paul and family move to Newton, NJ in 1935 to work for another weaving company.

He did not work in one mill until he was 35 years of age. He worked in Gardner, MA, Rockville, CT and Agawam, MA. He also had the store."

1900 - Socialists Meet
At the corner of Dexter and Darling streets last night an open air meeting was held under the... of the Socialist-Labor party. The speakers were Edward Theinert of Olneyville and Richard M. Shaw of Central Falls. There was a good attendance and the remarks of the speakers were listened to with evident interest. Mr. Theinert spoke at some length on Socialist principles. He claimed under present conditions it was almost impossible for the working man to make progress. He was forced to exist and did not get the opportunity to live. The wealth of the country was going into the hands of a few and would continue to do so just as long as working men of the company remained inactive and did not attend to their own interests. They supported the Democratic and Republican parties both of whom were controlled by the capitalists and so long as they... they could not reasonably expect legislation that would benefit them, because if they benefited the capitalists would suffer...

'In 1902, Erdman moves his family to an approximate 300 acre farm in the Albion section of Lincoln, RI. which I assume was a lease. In 1905, Erdman purchases the farm outright from the owner, Henry Hartwell Jencks. Edward W. leaves home in 1905 at age 16. Works
