Maximillian (Max) Freudenberg (1858-1921) by Jean Christina Tushil (1929- ): I was told that Maximillian Von Freudenberg was his original name. He had 15 children, 9 lived. Charles Fredrick Freudenberg's widow and her son moved to Chicago, IL from Rutherford, NJ. There is a company called Freudenberg Pellon in the midwest that might be related to our Freudenbergs. I believe he came from the town of Freudenberg in Germany. Source: Jean Christina Tushil (1929- ), Oral Testimony, 1998

Maximillian (Max) Freudenberg (1858-1921) by Eloise Margerite Sanford (1922- ): I was told that Maximillian was a cabin boy on a ship when he came over at age nine or ten. I was also told that the name was originally Von Freudenberg and that Von meant he was from an important banking family. I thought he might be Jewish because I heard that names ending in "berg" were Jewish. I was 12 when Eloise Lindauer died. I was born on August 23, 1922 and Louis Freudenberg was born on April 23, 1922. Arthur Jr. was called "Wimpy", he fell out a window and landed on a picket fence. Eugene was killed in Iwo Jima. Ralph was called "Twitty". Eugene was called "Titty", and Dick was called "Guinea". Dick was born on Columbus Day. Eloise was from Rye, New York. I remember driving up to their house, it was huge. Dick Freudenberg said they owned wine gardens in New York and in New Jersey. Eloise Lindauer's father would bet on horses and lost most his money. Eloise said that she never wanted to be buried next to Max. Max would earn $100/week as a translator for the German department at Metropolitan Insurance, but he would spend the money by time he got home on gambling. Ada rented a house down the shore at Matawan Beach near Lawrence Harbor. The nicknames for my cousins are Ralph: Titty, Gene: Pip; Dick: Guinea, Mother, Ducky; Arthur: Wimpy. Note: Wimpy may be a reference to a character in the Popeye cartoon. Dick was not born on Columbus day, but his father was. Eloise is buried next to Max. Eloise was born in New York City, but the family had a summer house in Rye, NY. Charles Lindauer was her father and he was in the liquor business.

Biography of Arthur Oscar Freudenberg, 1923: He is a son of Maximillian and Eloise (Lindauer) Freudenberg, the father a native of Germany, the mother of New York State. Of the sons of these parents Louis J. Freudenberg was killed in action in the World War. He served as a runner or messenger with Company M., 309th Infantry, 78th Division, and was shot in the Argonne, October 16th, 1918. Richard, another brother, served at Camp Meade, Maryland, but was not sent overseas. Maximillian Freudenberg was active in the insurance business in New York City for many years, in the capacity of actuary in the German department of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company.
