Johann Jr. born in 1868 in the area of Welbeln, Saarland, Germany and was the second youngest of four sons born to Johann Gorius and Elisabeth Augustin.
US naturalization documents indicate his father, Johann, a coal miner by trade, entered the USA on 17 Feb 1871. His mother Elisabeth and the four young Gorius boys followed on the Ship Berlin having departed from Bremen, Germany and arrived in Baltimore, Maryland on 03 Sep 1872. Peter was age 8, George was 5, Johann Jr. was 3 and Jacob, was approx 15 months old at the time of their arrival.
Johann Jr. and his mother Elisabeth are absent from any subsequent public records after 1872. One can only speculate they both died shortly after their arrival in the US, although no death records have been found, or Elisabeth abandoned the family taking only Johann Jr. with her. Their fate is unknown to this day.
