This is the death certificate for my great grandfather, Henry Seiter [2/8/1883 - 8/19/1959]. He lived in Bellrose, Queens at the time of his death and was survived by his second wife, Elizabeth. Click on picture to enlarge.
The birthdate on the death certificate appears to be wrong, as his grave stone and the 1900 census both say that he was born in 1883.
He was the father of Anna, John, Henry, James, Dorothy and Edward [with his first wife, Catherine (Marr) Seiter], as well as Elizabeth and Lucille, with his second wife.
He was a painter by trade and was a higher up in his union. I have a picture of him with his union buddies which I will post later.
His parents were Jacob Seiter and Katharina Hess [whose name is listed incorrectly on the death certificate]. He is buried in Flushing Cemetery in Queens [I will add the plot number later].
His siblings were Phoebe [Josephine] Seiter [married name Callahan] and Susan [Susie] Seiter [married name Weber]. I think he also had a younger brother named Rudolph, because an infant is buried with Henry's father, Jacob, in St. Michael's Cemetery in Queens.
Directly below this post is another post with a picture of him.
