It was my brother's wedding day and, since I was best man in the wedding, I took a day off from work and went to Burgdorf. Ernst Josi said, "Paul, since you go through Bern, why don't you go to the American Embassy and apply for a visa to go to America?

On Being A Wisconsin Farmhand, Paul Grossenbacher

The winter of 1929 is long remembered for the deep snow and the cold. Highway 69 from New Glarus to Monroe was closed many times and the mountains of snow the snowplows pushed were reaching the telephone wires.
Growing Up In Burgdorf, Paul Grossenbacher
Growing Up In Burgdorf, Paul Grossenbacher
Swiss American Historical Society Review
When old age starts t:o creep up on you, start looking back. You will be amazed how many beautiful memories will come back to light. That is what I am trying to do, look back and try Ito find old memories. I was born into a family of two sisters and five brothers; no more children were born to my parents, so I stayed the youngest one and a mother's little boy.

Preparing For A Career, Paul Grossenbacher
Swiss American Historical Society Review
At the end of the fifth school year, we all had the opportunity to take an intelligence test and, if you passed that test, you then could go to secondary school, which is similar to high school here. Even though you were only a sixth grader, the subjects were algebra, physics, chemistry, and foreign languages. It is very important in Switzerland that one speaks several languages because in Switzerland, a country less than one-third the size of the state of Wisconsin, four official languages are spoken. About 19% speak a real good French, about 10% are Italian speaking, only 1% …

Keeping A Promise, Paul Grossenbacher
Swiss American Historical Society Review
Shortly after Eddy passed away, it was our silver wedding anniversary. I still remembered what I had promised Verena. We had 43 all reservations made, then we lost Eddy and we were going to cancel all of it, but our friends and our family told us we should go, it would be a good diversion for us.

Getting Married, Paul Grossenbacher
Swiss American Historical Society Review
Well, I was a farmer, and married farmhands were preferred over single men, so we talked about getting married. I sent that news back to Switzerland, but my oldest brother was not too happy about it.

Leaving The Farm, Paul Grossenbacher
Leaving The Farm, Paul Grossenbacher
Swiss American Historical Society Review
It was good to be back home again, but Verena enjoyed her first trip to Switzerland very much and she has made about five more trips since. She could learn where her ancestors came from. I was the owner of a farm then, and it was also the dairy which supplied New Glarus and later Monticello with milk. It was a good business, but we all really had to work too hard in those days. But we made a little money, and the day came when we could burn the mortgage.
