Koning, Olive Edith (Ludwig) 1884-1981General Notes
Note
"The schooner Mary Ludwig, bound from Muskegon to St. Joseph, tried in vain to enter Holland harbor Tuesday morning. An east wind kept her out, and with a storm approaching she was in a dangerous predicament. The Holland Coast Guard saw the dilemma and went out to the aid with a power boat. In this way the schooner was soon resting in safe harbor." -- Holland City News/The Holland Sentinel, Thursday, Nov. 2, 1916Create Date
