Allan, My grandpa`s name was Henry. He was born in Holland,WI in 1889. His father, Martin, died when Henry was 10 months old.His mother,Crescensia, remarried 3 years later to Chris Christians (Bill Christians father). They moved to the Nebraska panhandle to homestead at the urging of Martin`s brothers ,who had moved out to Nebraska from Wisconsin a few years earlier. They sent glowing reports of the great soil,level land and not needing to clear the fields of trees.Arnold,William,George and John were the names of Martins brothers who moved to Nebraska. I don`t know if you heard of Leonard Peters,he was a son of Arnold and was my grandpas 1st cousin.I went out to Hay Springs, Nebraska with my dad Elmer Peters in late Dec 1969 and remember visiting Ervin Blonien on New Years Day 1970 and watching Johnny Rodgers and the Cornhuskers win the Orange Bowl By the way, If I look around here hard enough, I know there`s a copy of "Old Jules" lying around somewhere.Grandpa talked about him alot. It`s been nice reminiscing, Allan . Have a great Holidays, Mark
