General Notes: DISCUSSION REGARDING THE IDENTITY OF THEO'S PARENTS: Our subject was born out of wedlock October 1, 1883, and at the age of five months was removed to the United States and given the name "Theodore Henry Hoffmann". His German birth name was "Ludwig Theodor Heinrick Andreas Lankenau".

A Hamburg, Germany, birth registration record was located on Ancestry.com for; Ludwig Theodor Heinrick Andreas Lankenau [birth date and birth place matched that of subject]. Mother's name on record was; Luise Johanna Drescher Lankenau [her Hamburg Death record contained a birth date that matched birth date stated in our subject's Reminder Book and birth place; Osterholz, Germany. She would have been twenty-two when Theo was born. Father's name was not stated. Luise's mother was Margaretha Dorothea Lankenau, same as listed in the Reminder Book as "Grandma Doris" [her Baptism record was located showing same birth date and birth location Osterholz, same as Luise's birth location]. The Baptism record also stated parents; Heinrich and Metta Lankenau [her NYC death registration record listed father; "Heinrich" and mother; Rebecca"(English for Metta)]. Grandma Doris" would have been aged twenty-two when Luise was born in 1861 and is our subject's biological grandmother. His Bronx Marriage certificate #1775 dated 16 December 1905 stated father's name Ludwig [last name not stated], mother's name, Louise Ebbighausen.

Regarding "Grandpa" [Ludwig Hoffmann]. A Birth / Baptism record was located stating his true birth name was Ludewig Ebbighausen [German Lutheran Baptisms record located on Ancestry.com. Subject name "Ludewig Ebbighausen," date of birth 24 September 1839, Father: Heinrich August Ludewig Ebbighausen, Mother: Wilhelmine Ebbighausen]. His birth date was the same as listed in the Reminder Book and first names same as listed on subject's 1909 Bronx #153 Death Certificate. Mother's scribbled last name was not decipherable except last letters …fezer [verified as "Schwerdtfeger"]. Additional evidence located on Ancestry.com was a ship's manifest listing a Ludwig Ebbighausen, age 36 [estimated birth year 1839] departing Hamburg, Germany, 23 November 1875, destination New York City. Manifest stated profession "Musiker" (Musician). Grandpa Hoffmann's stated occupation on 1900 U. S. census was, " Music Teacher." To summarize; Grandpa Hoffmann [AKA: Ebbighausen] was the older brother of Carl Heinrich August Ebbighausen father of Theo's future wife, Mathilde Ebbighausen.

This writer could not independently verify the origin of the last name "Hoffmann" and believes "Grandpa" and his wife assumed the last name when baby Theo was entrusted to 1884 to their care as a matter of convenience and to establish a new identity.

DISCUSSION REGARDING THEO AS NATIONAL CHAIRMAN OF THE STEUBEN SOCIETY OF AMERICA:
Theo was well-known in the German American community as National Chairman of the Steuben Society of America. He was also a member of several charitable and social organizations in New York City. The rise of Fascism in Germany during the nineteen-thirties tested the loyalties of the German American community. Steuben Society members tended to be older naturalized American citizens. While sympathetic to German grievances the Steuben Society advocated neutrality. Members of rival Fascist sympathizing organizations drew support from younger Germans and non-American citizens. One such group, "Friends of the New Germany", organized in July 1933 and based in New York City, was openly pro-Hitler and had taken control of the "United German Societies" that sponsored annual German-day activities.

The rivalry was manifest during the December 1933 annual New York City German-day celebration described in a newspaper article as; "an enthusiastic celebration of German Day at the Madison Square Garden before a packed house of more than 20,000 persons". Several prominent Jews were manhandled and ejected from the meeting, speakers were booed and as the German ambassador [Hans Luther] arose to speak, "the audience accorded him a tremendous Nazi ovation. "Heil" resounded throughout the large main hall of the Garden, as Luther stood at the rostrum and rendered the Nazi salute. The tumult had scarcely died down, when a woman fifty feet from the rostrum screamed, "Down with Hitler, down with Hitler!" The cry was taken up in all parts of the Garden, as the surprised audience countered with "Heil Hitler!" Chairman Wieboldt rushed to the microphone and pleaded, "Please, please, give Dr. Luther a chance to speak." Police rushed to various parts of the Garden and escorted shouting men and women from their seats out of the hall. The band struck up "Deutschland Uber Alles," and the audience joined in singing it."

A newspaper article dated 13 Mar 1934, stated: "Is Theo. Hoffmann Jewish? Steuben Head Won't Answer" stated that Hoffmann refused to deny or confirm reports that he is partly Jewish." The allegation was that he was the son of a Jewish mother and consequently tried to be more German than real 'Aryans" and that this fact is known to many members of the Steuben Society members. Theo denied the Jewish allegation and demanded proof. The allegation, however, cannot be totally ignored. Altona, Germany, at the time of Theo's birth, was a major center of Ashkenazic Jewish life and scholarship attracting hundreds of students. This writer's DNA profile [Theo's grandson] does not contain markers to indicate Jewish ancestry; evidence of a Jewish parent was not true. Also, subject's German birth certificate stated mother was Protestant.

Theodore Hoffmann and a delegation of Steuben Society members traveled to Germany in August 1934 on the S. S. Berlin. He was accompanied by his daughter Jane. A Google search located: "Documents on German Foreign Policy: 1918-1945 - Page 1115": On October 31, the Führer and Chancellor received the Head of the Steuben Society of American, Mr. Theo H. Hoffmann. Mr. Hoffmann informed the Frührer and Chancellor of the aims and task of the Steuben Society and expressed severe criticism of the behaviour of the Association of "Friends of the New Germany" in America. The local heads of this Association were, for the greater part, young Germans who were not American citizens and who therefore ran the risk of being deported from America because of their political activities. It was also entirely possible that the American government would be compelled to prohibit and dissolve the Association of "Friends of the New Germany." Such a measure would, of course, provide the enemies of Germany in America with new material for agitation against Germany… Theo went on to tell the Fuhrer that "German Consuls in the United States had accepted invitations to functions of the "Friends of New Germany" and had thus indicated that they were lending this Association moral support." The Fuhrer replied that "he had given strict instructions that National Socialists were in all circumstances to refrain from political activities in the country which was their host" and that the "Friends of the New Germany" were not directed by the German Government. In December 1935, Rudolf Hess, Deputy Führer of the Nazi Party, recalled the "Friends of the New Germany" leaders to Germany and ordered all German citizens to leave the group. By March 1936, Friends of New Germany was dissolved and its membership transferred to the newly formed German American Bund, the new name being chosen to emphasize the group's American credentials after press criticism that the organization was unpatriotic. The Bund was to consist only of American citizens of German descent.

By 1938 German American public opinion had turned against the Nazi agitators. The celebration of German Day in Madison Square Garden last night [October 2, 1938] became the occasion for an open break between Nazi disciples and those who consider themselves more Americanized Germans in this country. According to announcements from the platform, the break took the German Organizers by surprise after they recently purged the celebration of the Nazi forces led by Fritz Kuhn and his German American Bund… Several scheduled prominent speakers dropped out (the German Ambassador was too busy). Theo was equally emphatic in disapproval of what he called "any exhibition of any foreign politics on our shores…". This was a major change from the 1936 conference dominated by Kuhn and his German American Bund and the 1937 conference which allowed Kuhn to parade his uniformed storm troopers.

Events









He was employed as a member of a survey party for the Canadian National Railway between 9 Apr 1919 and 9 Sep 1919 in Melfort, , Saskatchewan, Canada. He arrived in northern Saskatchewan by train along with other members of the survey party. He and his mother invested almost all the money they had to purchase a canvas sleeping bag and a woolen blanket.


. He worked at a Trust Company beginning about Oct 1919 to 1921 at Winnipeg. He was paid $75 per month which was increased to $90.00. He had the misfortune of cashing two checks for a customer in the amount of $375.00 which bounced. His future didn't look bright because he was required to repay the debt out of his pay. While getting a haircut in Winnipeg, the barber who he previously knew in Elgin suggested he become a doctor and according to his autobiography decided then and there in the barber's chair to be a doctor.

. He said the plan was to take a course in normal school and become a teacher and then teach school and go to medical college on alternate years. He enrolled in a fifteen-week course teaching people to be country school third grade teachers. The course began September 1921 and ended December 1921. After teaching in two different country schools, he was back in Winnipeg the following August. On his first day home he met a MacLeans magazine salesman who had just sold a six-month subscription to his mother for one dollar. They had a discussion and became convinced selling subscriptions was a better way to earn money. He discontinued teaching school and put himself through pre-med and medical college selling subscriptions the next six summers for three dollars a year or five dollars for two years.

. He graduated from University of Manitoba Medical College on 15 May 1929 in Winnipeg, , Manitoba, Canada. 195 On the First of June at the graduation exercises at the old Walker Theater Dr. Little was handed his diploma making him a qualified medical doctor. A degree from Manitoba Medical College required seven years of study, two in pre-med at the University of Manitoba, four years at the Medical College and the final year as an intern. Pre-med tuition was $50 per year and medical school tuition was $100 per year. He began at the University of Manitoba in 1922 and in the fall of 1924 entered medical college and in 1928 interned at the Misericordia Hospital.

(Transcribed from photocopy of student assessment book - 3rd year, from file 4.1.5 (student assessments 1926/1927), Medical Archives, Faculty of Medicine, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba, 14 March 2009)
LITTLE, HENRY OWEN: 26; Record: 1st yr.; 2nd yr., pass. Spent four years at other things, banking, survey parties, Loan Co. etc. Was not attracted to Medicine by financial considerations. Works his way along; sells magazines in summer (Father is a preacher, brother is a banker and helps him some). Thinks he spent too much time in Latin in premed. Zoology most useful. Botany is a biological subject. Has not found Medicine too difficult, studies 2-3 hours a night, 4-5 hrs (nights?) a week. Spends a lot of time in church work (Young Church). Reads McLean's Magazine and the Bible. Thinks the Fundamentalists are hair-brained and all at sea. Is attracted by Pediatrics and General Surgery. A good deal of time is wasted in didactic lectures because there is no practical application of the knowledge thus acquired. Would like to have opportunities of following patients through the whole course of their illness. If it were not for financial handicaps would spend his time in research - say in T.B.

. After graduation he accepted an appointment as Resident Intern in Deerlodge Military Hospital, Winnipeg, and had a few private patients.
After six months there was not much income so he bought a practice in the village of Manitou, a prosperous village a few miles from the border of North Dakota. The practice was slow and he recalled that the better part of his income was derived from selling liquor prescriptions.

While at Deerlodge, with the help of his brother and sister, they purchased a two-door 1929 Ford Model A automobile, however in Manitou once winter had set in, he did country travel by hiring a team of horses and sleigh from the local livery stable.

. His mother had sent him a "Doctor Wanted" newspaper clipping April 1930 for a "municipality" doctor, Wishart, Emerald Township #277, Saskatchewan. He replied and accepted a job one hundred miles north of Regina. Wishart was then a small village founded in 1928. There was no place to practice medicine when he arrived but there was no great need for a fully equipped doctor's office since most of his work was making house calls around the 325 square mile municipality. He did, however, have a small, borrowed office at a grain elevator which was not very convenient, no running water and only a chair and table for furniture. His salary was $375.00 a month and earned a little extra by treating patients outside the municipality and selling pills, tonics, and cod liver oil.

Later the village counselors arranged to have an old meeting house moved to a lot on the main street and to sell him the lot and two adjacent fifty foot lots. It was a rough building about eighty feet square with a potbellied stove. The building did not lend itself very well to being a doctor's office so he had a house-office combination constructed to the rear and used the meeting house as a waiting room. During the next six years he tended to the medical needs of the municipality. He delivered about seven hundred babies as during that time the birth rate was so high that half of the population was under the age of fifteen. He was required to periodically examine over two thousand children and keep them vaccinated. During a cold spell one winter a case of smallpox occurred in the next municipality requiring a rush job getting all the children and others vaccinated. One afternoon he visited a two room country school with 120 students. Two seventh grade girls swabbed arms with alcohol while he vaccinated. He had to work fast because his teamster had to keep the horses moving in the forty below zero weather (there was no barn). He finished the job in one hour.

Social life was limited but he did keep the company of a pretty doctor's daughter named Marjorie who lived in a village about forty miles away. They met in December 1930. She was seventeen and played the piano and they went steady for about five years. There was not much to do; they went to country dances, sang a few songs at her home, drove around the country, etc. In December 1940 he visited her in Vancouver.

He would send money home to Winnipeg to support his mother and brother Robert who was attending Manitoba Medical College. When Robert graduated June, 1936, the need to send money decreased. Desiring to get away from the edge of civilization, he resigned his position at Wishart and returned to Winnipeg with the intent of starting a practice there without much success. For three months however, he was a private intern at the Winnipeg General Hospital. On September 15,1936, he left Winnipeg for England to study ophthalmology. He went back to Wishart in 1978 for the town's centennial celebration and was greeted as a "special guest".
.
At the 1931 Census of Canada he was age 30, employed as a municipal doctor, $5000 annual income, enumerated at the hamlet of Wishart, Saskatchewan. 196 Also enumerated at residence [probably as visitors] were his mother, Emily Marie Little, age 60 and brother Robert Herriot Little, age 27, a Manitoba college student on vacation.
.
At age 35, accompanied by his mother, he sailed to England from Montreal on the ship Dutchess of York and arrived 26 Sep 1936 at the Port of Liverpool, proposed address in the UK; 11 Ormiston Rd., New Brighton. 197 He began a six-month course in ophthalmology at Moorfields Hospital, London. In May 1937 he became a house surgeon at the Royal Westminster Eye Hospital for 18 months ending October 1938 and then for six weeks was temporary chief ophthalmologist to the British army. While in England he also visited relatives in Ireland. He and mother returned to the United States on the Empress of Britain arriving 22 Dec 1938 at the Port of New York.

. He worked as an Ophthalmologist between 1939 and 1945 at New York, , New York. He had agreed to take a position with the Manhattan Eye and Ear Hospital located at 140 East 54th Street. Before starting however, he and his mother returned to Winnipeg to see about things he had left in storage and visit sister, Dora. Upon return to New York City he had to take a lengthy New York Medical Board exam to get licensed. It also took nine months of bureaucracy to establish his American citizenship even though he was born in California. He was on the surgical staff of the Manhattan Eye and Ear Hospital and also on the staff of St Luke's Hospital. His starting pay was $300 per month. In December, 1940, he went to Vancouver, British Columbia, for ten days to visit an old girlfriend without telling the chief surgeon and was fired soon after his return. He then set up his own practice in the same building.

. He resided at 98-120 Queens Blvd, Forest Hills between 1940 and 1942 at New York, Queens, New York. At the 1940 census he was age 38 and listed as head of household, renting at $85/month. Also at residence were mother Emily (age 70) and brother Robert (age 36).
. He was a Deacon in the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church. 198 The minister was John Sutherland Bonnell (known as "Sid"), a Canadian, who previously preached at Winnipeg. Rev Bonnell had built up the church to become one of the wealthiest Presbyterian churches in the world. Dr. Bonnell was born 1893 on Prince Edwards Island, Canada, died 1992 aged 99 at Roseburg, Oregon. Enlisted in Canadian Army in World War One, wounded twice in Europe, ordained in 1922. Gained a national reputation in his 26 years (1935 - 1962) as Pastor, Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, sometimes called the "cathedral of Presbyterianism. He was a moderate theologically and an ardent supporter of the Rev. Billy Graham's first New York "crusade" in 1957. President of the New York Theological Seminary 1966 - 1969.
He was a member of the "Canadian Society" where met interesting people.

. Dr. Little came close to marriage in 1941 when on 11 February 1941 he and Eileen Mary Hession obtained a New York City Marriage License. 199 Miss Hession was born 1911 at London, Ontario, Canada. She resided at 1032 Park Avenue, New York City, and was a Lieutenant [Registered Nurse] in the United States Army. She died in 1994. Her father Edmund Hession, a military veteran, was well-known in London, Ontario.
. Beginning in 1943 he was spending one or two days a week in Hudson, New York, helping his brother Robert who had recently taken over a medical practice. 200 He had rented an apartment at 308 E. 79th Street in October,1944. In the spring of March, 1945, he gave up his New York City practice and moved to Hudson to join his brother where he conducted a successful thirty-year medical practice in Ophthalmology located at 455 Warren Street.
. After his marriage to Jane Hoffmann and honeymoon, he rented an apartment for several months in June 1944 in a house located on Route 9H at Claverack, New York, about three miles from Hudson. 201 They returned to New York City December 1944 driving the Taconic Parkway, a day after a major snow storm, where their first child was born. Rather than immediately returning to Columbia County he sublet an apartment at Gramacy Park and 19th Street. In March 1945 he rented a brick cottage at Greenport just outside Hudson.

. He had a residence between Mar 1947 and Dec 1960 at Claverack, Columbia, New York. 202 On 20 March 1952, Dr. Little correspondence with the University of Manitoba requesting the completion and return of a State of California medical license application form. 203 The following month on 15 April 1952, he made a similar request for Connecticut stating; "Could I again prevail upon you to fill out another State application form? You did one for California last month and I am now casting my gaze toward Connecticut", suggesting he was contemplating relocating his medical practice.
. He resided at "The Gables" between 7 Dec 1960 and 1978 at Kinderhook, Columbia, New York. "The Gables" is a Dutch colonial house which was heavily renovated and enlarged in 1928. The original house was built in 1729 by an early settler to the area named Van Allen on land purchased from the local Native Americans. A brother built a similar house one mile east on the other side of Kinderhook Creek which has been restored to its original condition and presently a National Historic landmark.
. He moved back to Hudson in 1978 to a rented apartment at 356 Union Street, near his office where he lived alone.
In 1980 he purchased an old [1836] Greek revival house on upper [738] Warren Street. The first floor was converted to an office plus a one room studio apartment where he lived. Various family members lived in the second floor apartment, most of the time his daughter Elizabeth and her son Seth. By 1980 his medical practice had declined and eventually lost his medical license by which time he had only a few patients.
