August 23, 1991 Uncle Albert referred to his parents getting a letter from her in 1932 in which she intimated that times would be very difficult for the German people in Russia. Grandpa and Grandma Buxman feared that she would be sent to Siberia in cattle cars and dumped off, "which probably happened," according to Uncle Albert. (This evening my mother (Aug. 23, 1991) added that she thought her name was Eve or Eva.) July, 1993, we met Eva Buxman's daughter, Paulina Linder of Zaretchna, Kazakhstan, who gave us information about her mother and father. Birth year by inference "she died in 1939 at age 66." Paulina said her mother had 14 children in all, many died; there were two sets of twins among those who died.
Year of birth and death confirmed in May 1995 by Sara Schaffner, grandaughter, daughter of Peter Maier.
April 11, 1994 letter from Paulina Lender tells that her mother had 2 sets of twins, and 15 children in all, 10 of whom died in early childhood (or in infancy), with 5 surviving to adulthood--Heinrich, Peter, Sara, Katrinlizbet, and Paulina. [Note; here she makes no reference to a 'Samuel.'] She said she was the youngest.
William Buxman of Parlier, CA (brother to my mother) said he remembered his father (Carl Adolf Buxman) saying that when he (Carl) was coming to America his sister,Eva, had planned to come also, but in St. Petersburg 'she got cold feet,' and returned to Wiesenmueller.

Eva heiratete Maier, Heinrich geschätzt 1898. Heinrich wurde geboren in 1868 in Wiesenmüller, Gebiet Samara, Region Wolga, Rußland; gestorben in 1938 in Marienfeld, Gebiet Armavir, Region Krim, Rußland. [Familienblatt] [Familientafel]

April 11, 1994 letter from Paulina Lender tells that her mother had 2 sets of twins, and 15 children in all, 10 of whom died in early childhood (or in infancy), with 5 surviving to adulthood--Heinrich, Peter, Sara, Katrinlizbet, and Paulina. [Note; here she makes no reference to a 'Samuel', but that is probably because he died quite young.] She said she was the youngest.

Birthyear is inference from 'age 76 in 1993' In 1994 Paulina and her daughter, Maria, said the name was spelled Lender (in Russian). I had earlier had it as Linder, but with their correction I'll now spell it as they prefer. (Their pronunciation sounds like 'Linder' in German, with the short 'i')
In August, 1994 a letter from Margaret Decker, recently arrived in Dueren, Germany, reported that Paulina had died in May. A phone call to her grandaughter, Valya Schabert in Germany (spoke to Valya's husband, Waldemar) confirmed it; she died while working in her garden harvesting onions in Zaretchna, Kazakhstan--just across the Tobol River from Kustanai where she found us in 1993. (For details of this astounding event see article by William M. Wiest, "Impressions from our trip to Russia (Saratov villages) and Kazakhstan (Kustanai area) in 1993," in Journal of the American Historical Society of Germans from Russia, Winter, 1994, (Vol. 17, No. 4).
