The Wellspring, Fannie's Story

Fannie's immigrant story begins with her birth in 19th century Hungary and ends with her death in 1925, surrounded by the American family she nurtured. Those decades were fraught with religious persecution, national betrayal, world war, mass migration, technological advances, economic depression, disease, death, and poverty. An ordinary woman born into ordinary circumstances, she shared a deep and intimate love, and bore nine children.

Her life speaks to the steadfastness of the human spirit; its ability to adapt and renew, survive, and endure.
