Before there was a "Bourbon King," George Remus's family had to immigrate to the United States, just as countless millions had before them. In this episode, we will explore the journey of Carl Franz Remus and Marie Louise Karg, the parents of notorious bootlegger George Remus, as they came to America in June 1882.
Despite the challenges of the journey, Carl and Marie arrived in America with hope for a brighter future. Their story is one of perseverance and the pursuit of the American dream, but it was also filled with travails and challenges. Their story provides a glimpse into the struggles faced by many immigrants during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. We will take a closer look at their journey and the impact it had on their family's future in America.
Everyone develops mental models for dealing with themselves, their families, communities, and broader world. This is the foundation of the Bourbon King, George Remus, the most notorious criminal mastermind of the Jazz Age.
