General Notes: Husband - Paul Edward Potters

Arrived May 17, 1904 at Ellis Island on the Zeeland from Antwerp, Belgium. In the 1910 census he listed his occupation as store clerk. He was living with Rudolph and Ernest in the 9th Ward of Brooklyn. See entry of brother Rudolph regarding Potters Industries.

According to a 1926 Ellis Island immigration record, Paul went to visit his Uncle Hermann Poetters in Hamburg that year. There is a tree in the Family Search Center which indicates that there was a Hermann Poetters who was born in Barmen on 18 November 1876 and died 17 April 1970. This would seem likely to be the Uncle Hermann that Paul referred to but I have found no further documentation regarding him.
