Keller, Stephanie, St. Etienne, Loire, France, to Father Gustave A. Rouxel, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1881 June 9

Some Alsatian priests who reside at New Orleans have informed their families of the death of Father Joseph Anstaett, former secretary to Archbishop Napoleon Joseph Perché, and the American religious journals affirm this sad event which apparently occurred last June 16. Keller's mother, who lives in Alsace and is Anstaett's sister, has never had any direct news of this. They ask him to let them know if it is true and also to give them some details about the death. If her uncle left an estate, she asks him who has the right to it. There are three branches: her mother; a nephew and a niece, Mrs. Laurent and Emile Anstaett who resides at Galveston, and other nephews and nieces at Vasseloune, Alsac, Bas-Rhin. Her mother's address is Mrs. Catherine Jungbluth, Mutzing, Bas-Rhin, Alsace. :: VI-3-c A.L.S. French 3pp. 12mo.
