Hiedermann Friedrich (Fritz) Lindemann was born February 10, 1868, in Hanover, Germany, the son of H. Willhelm and Clara Lindemann. Friedrich had two brothers, Herman and Willhelm. The family came to America when Friedrich was seven years old, landing at Galveston, Texas.

They settled in the Brenham, Texas area, where they farmed and became accustomed to a new language and the ways of a new country. On January 24, 1895, Freidrich married Alwine Hueske in McGregor, Texas. He acquired the name "Fritz", short for Friedrich and Alwine was pronounced Alvina in English.

In 1906, Fritz and Alvina, along with their children moved to the Providence Area in Floyd County, Texas. Fritz later bought 160 acres in Swisher County, and in 1916 built a new home for his family. It became known as "the home place" and they lived there the remainder of their lives.

Fritz and Alvina had 13 children: Henry, Adolph, Emilie, Alma and Albert (twins), Fred, Dora, Louise, Meta and Frieda (twins, Frieda died in infancy) Annie, William and Hermann, who died at the age of six months.
