Life

Emilie Marx was the seventh child of Heinrich Marx and Henriette Presburg . Like her brother Karl Marx , she was baptized Protestant on August 26, 1824 by division preacher Mühlenhoff. Emilie was taught privately or at a girls' school. Since her father became seriously ill in 1838, she and her older sister Louise were evangelically confirmed on April 8, 1838. Some letters to her uncle Lion Philips and Henriette van Anrooij from the years 1853–1854 have survived. Emilie kept in touch with her brother Karl and his wife by letter. A love affair with the Düsseldorf landscape painter Adolf Gustav Lasinski is also known . After a marriage contract, Emilie married the hydraulic engineering supervisor Johann Jacob Conradi (born November 19, 1821 in Laasphe ; † April 28, 1892 in Trier ) in Trier on October 22, 1859 . The couple lived first at Fleischstrasse 37, then from 1864 in the Trier suburb of St. Barbara , then from 1875 on Margarethenstrasse 367 and finally from 1883 on Simeonstiftstrasse 17. When Henriette Marx, her mother, died on November 30, 1863, she sent a memorial card to her brother in London.

Karl Marx's last visit was on December 15, 1863 in Trier. In the course of the inheritance settlement, J. J. Conradi Marx helped to get his share. On May 10, 1865, their only child, Henriette Sophie Louise Nanette, was born in Trier. In July 1865, Esther Kosel, b. Marx - an aunt of Karl Marx - in Frankfurt am Main. Here, too, J. J. Conradi Marx helped to obtain possession of the inheritance. There is also a surviving letter from Emilie to her aunt Babette Blum (née Marx) regarding the Kosel inheritance case. When Marx died in London on March 14th, Emilie sent her condolences to her niece Eleanor Marx on March 17th, 1883.

On October 24, 1888, her birthday, Emilie Conradi died of a "heart condition" in her hometown and was buried there on October 27.

Her husband survived her by four years. In the death certificate he was named “Strommeister a. D. ”. The further life of her daughter Henriette is still unexplored.
