  • Notes 
    • - Cabinet-Maker

      Julius Link was listed as a cabinetmaker in his daughter, Theresia's birth certificate. One special carved piece of furniture was in possession of Theresia Rosa Link's during her adulthood. Theresia's bedroom furniture also could have dated back to her father although this is not certain. The bedroom set was last in possession of her husband, Norman Forte's, second wife. (F-115) Mabel Link, deceased, also owned a carved chest made by Julius.
      Julius's was from the state of Hendungen, Bavaria according to his Marriage record. Hank and Bill Forte, grandsons of Julius Link feels certain that the Links were from Darmstadt, Garmisch-Partenkirchen, in the state of Bayern (Bavaria), Germany. (F-55,444) Different family members feel the Links also lived in Baden Baden in W. Germany or from a city that is recalled as Melorystadt? or Michelstein?, close to Bomberg Germany (Bavaria). He died of typhoid fever shortly before his son Julius was born. He asked his sister Rose to look after his family. Even so, son Walter was placed in Girard College (home for boys) when he was 6 years old. His mother, Elizabeth W. Ekstein, remarried and had one more son. She also died young around age 45 (F-41&105a) Her second husband broke up the household and took his son with him. Theresia was already married to Norman and they took in sister, Aurelia. Aurelia then married and went to Atlantic City. She had a daughter who died at age 18. Walter was about 18 and went on by himself. He had left Girard at age 16. He met Mabel, his future bride, at church around age 18. He married at age 23. Julius, Jr. was put in a foster home.
      Julius's parentage is unknown. The closest record so far is for a Julius Heinrich Linke, born Aug. 22, 1871, at 11 p.m., christened Sept. 17, 1871, legitimate son of Johann Friedrich Wilhelm Linke (a miner by trade) and Karoline Wittkamper.
