Children of Ferdinand Schlesinger

Here is my 2012  post on Ferdinand Schlesinger:

I just read this amazing Milwaukee Magazine  story by  B. Ellen von Oostenburg about Schlesinger, and his famous daughter-in-law, Mona Travis Strader Schlesinger Bush Williams von Bismarck-Schönhausen de Martini:         http://www.milwaukeemag.com/2010/02/22/HighSociety/  

While this article does not mention Schlesinger's  Mayville iron works, with their inherited wealth the Schlesinger children, Henry, Armin and Gertrude,  likely had little concern for their Mayville operations after Ferdinand died in 1921.   The von Oostenburg article states Henry was interested in his horses in Kentucky.  Armin is described as an industrialist who retired to Naples, Florida. And daughter Gertrude married Myron T. MacLaren, a vice president of a brokerage company. Gertrude's daughter said that "[m]other alone inherited $$80 million" from Ferdinand.
