      "Julius Mark Schwarz, son of the shoemaker Mathias Schwarz and wife Theresia Schmid of Opatov, East Bohemia, Czech Republic was born there on January 6, 1887 and baptized the following January 9 at St. Anthony Parish in Opatov. His ancestors in Opatov were divided equally between 13th century immigrants from Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany and native Bohemians.

      Julius immigrated with his parents, younger sister Mary and widowed maternal grandmother Anna (Kramer) Schmid to the USA, arriving in New York on the Norddeutscher-Lloyd steamship Aller on June 14, 1892 and settling in Albany, Stearns, Minnesota.

      Julius would later become a railroad telegraph operator in the border town of Portal, Burke, North Dakota. There he met and married in 1913 Margaret Ellen (Horr) Agard, widow of William Agard who died in Portal on November 5, 1911, leaving his wife and two daughters, both born in Belmont, Warren, Iowa: Leona (age 12) and Lillian (age 10).

      Julius and Margaret resided in Portal, North Dakota until Margaret's daughters Leona and Lillian were on their own, appearing alone as a couple in Fessenden, Wells, North Dakota in the 1925 North Dakota State Census and in the 1930 and 1940 US Census.

      Since they do not appear in the North Dakota State Death Index, they appear to have relocated sometime after 1940 to Warren County, Iowa where Margaret was born and they were buried in the IOOF Cemetery in Indianola after Julius died on September 7, 1955 and Margaret died on July 28, 1970."
