Person in this family
Frederick Selig
Born about 1872; death not recorded
Frederick Selig was born at New York about 1872, a child of David Selig and Amelia Oppenheimer, and was at home in the 1880 census. A New York City death record names a Frederick Selig as a son of David Selig and Amelia Oppenheimer, so his death is findable and has not been opened. Frederick is **not in the 1900 census household**, so had died, married or moved out by then. A sibling of Louis Seelig.
