The grandfather of a U.S. president built his stake not in Manhattan towers but in Klondike boom towns, running a restaurant and brothel for gold rush miners before Bavaria revoked his citizenship and sent him back across the Atlantic.

About this person

Born Friedrich Trump in Kallstadt, Bavaria, on March 14, 1869, he left for America at sixteen and by 1891 was buying and selling Seattle real estate. When gold fever hit the Yukon, he followed the miners north and opened a establishment in Whitehorse that served meals, drinks, and women. He returned to Germany in 1901, married Elisabeth Christ, and tried to settle - but because he'd skipped military service and never informed the authorities when he emigrated, the Bavarian government stripped his citizenship in 1905 and expelled him. Back in New York, he cut hair, managed a restaurant-hotel, and started assembling property in Queens. He died there on May 30, 1918, during the influenza pandemic, thirty years before his grandson was born.
