1887 - Karl Kiesel applies for immigration and states that he was a
resident of Washington State. [immigration application papers]
He apparently
brings most of the family with him and may have come to Seattle with
other German immigrants from Hawaii.

1910 - In this particular
census we have an unusual marking of the race or origin of the
individuals. Theodore seems to marked as "CA" I believe to mean
"caucasian", HA would be Hawaiian and OH would be caucasian and
Hawaiian. Theodore are also married for 4 years so obviously the
two oldest children have a different mother.
