Translation from
French -
I sent a message to
you but I do not know if it arrived on your premise I confirm to you well,
Charles is French of origin but its mother tongue is the Alsatian one; a German
dialect and which it undoubtedly spoke all its life. To the 6 years age it went
to primary school and started to learn the French. After the war of 1870/71
Alsace become German it learned the "Hochdeutsch"; It had left the
school around 13/14 years to work. At that time Oberhaslach was a village very
poor and catholic, the population lived of a little agriculture (meadows which
cows and fruit trees) and especially the drill (loggers and sawmills). At 20
years it had carried out its military service in the German army as any
Alsacien.Pour to emigrate at 23 years with U S A; to seek fortune. Like good
Alsacien it had kept a certain nostalgia of France and especially of the armies
of Napoleon; I think that it has clearing its history. Moreover it were not to
know to swim, the river nearest (Beetle) was with more than 10 km and in summer
it had helped the parents with work. J ' also have a question to pose to you;
why Johann Wilhelm Schnelzauer did he become John William Kern? I hope that
these which explanations on the life of Charles in Alsace will allow you to put
to an image righter on vautre back large father and to include/understand its
quite complicated history for many people. With the pleasure of reading you
soon. "Ae schener Gruas year of Charl" Well the hello to Charles into
Alsatian.
Original Letter -
Je vous ai envoyé un
message mais je ne sais pas s'il est arrivé chez vous
Je vous confirme bien
, Charles est Français d'origine mais sa langue
maternelle est
l'Alsacien; un dialecte allemand et qu'il a sans doute parlé
toute sa vie.A l'âge
de 6 ans il est allé à école primaire et a
commencé à apprendre
le Français. Après la guerre de 1870/71 l'Alsace
devenue Allemand il a
appris le "Hochdeutsch"; Il a dû quitté l'école vers
13/14 ans pour
travailler. A cette époque Oberhaslach était un village très
pauvre et catholique ,la population vivait d'un peu
d'agriculture
(prairies quelles
vaches et arbres fruitiers) et surtout de la foret (
bûcherons et
scieries). A 20 ans il a dû effectué son service militaire dans
l'armée allemande
comme tout Alsacien.Pour émigrer à 23 ans aux U. S .A;
pour chercher fortune.
Comme tout bon Alsacien il a dû gardé une certaine
nostalgie de la France
et surtout des armées de Napoléon; Je pense qu'il a
embellie son histoire.
De plus il ne devais pas savoir nager,
la rivière la
plus proche (Bruche)
était à plus de 10 km et en été il devait aidé les
parents aux travaux.
J 'ai également une
question à vous poser; pourquoi Johann
Wilhelm
Schnelzauer est-il
devenu John William Kern?
J'espère que ces
quelles explications sur la vie de Charles en Alsace vous
permettrons à mettre
une image plus juste sur vautre arrière
grand père et
de comprendre son
histoire bien compliquée pour beaucoup de monde.
Au plaisir de vous lire bientôt.

bonjour à Charles en Alsacien.
