January 3 1940: Death of Albert von Margutti. [Cousin from Trieste, officer in the Austrian army, worked as an interpreter/aide--with the title of "Baron"--in the court of Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria. After WWI Trieste became Italian, and neither the Austrian nor the Italian government would pay his army retirement pension. Our grandmother Daisy, his cousin by marriage, went to the Austrian consul in San Francisco and arranged for him to receive Red Cross food packages as a "displaced person." This started a long friendship with Albert, who wrote often to our father in a "paternal" way.]

Mary Belle supported both Victor--the medical student--and his mother and grandmother from her earnings as a social worker, resettling newcomers to the Bay Area during the period of migration to California described in John Steinbeck's "Grapes of Wrath." She remembered that they could only buy food once a month, because that was when she got paid. Later, when World War II started, she worked for Lockheed Aircraft company, eventually becoming a project manager for the Lockheed Constellation airplane, helping to move it from the drawing board to the production line. As the daughter of a professional engineer, dealing with blueprints and slide rules was second nature to her.]

----------------------------------------
Victor Chartrey, who gave an Egyptian stone to the Louvre, shown below, was Laure Chartrey's father. Tradition says that when she visited him in Egypt after finishing her education in France, he introduced her to Mr. Margutti, from Trieste, who was working with him in the Suez Canal Company. Laure named her youngest child after her father, and his name was also carried on into her grandchildren's generation.

You may not be aware, but in 1912 Louis went through a form of marriage to Mabel Knight in London in 1912, not legal because he was still married to Daisy. They had a son in 1913, my father also called Victor. Louis was therefore my grandfather.
I should be interested to hear from you. My email address is s.margutti@sky.com

Thank you for your comment. Your information explains why Louis did not return to America with my father and grandmother in 1913! I've written an e-mail to you.
I will be continuing to add more information to this post, so please check back occasionally.
I notice you have several references to members of the Miklaucic family. My mother was Iris Miklaucic(h), daughter of Giorgio Miklaucic b;1891 in Trieste, son of Guiseppe Miklaucic. I believe my mother had a cousin called Hertha, who is mentioned in "tante Lisette's datebook", who lived in Paris. Do you have any more information about the Miklaucic(h)family? My e-mail is margaret@numericable.fr I speak french and english. Margaret Pinson-Berthet
