Classification: Query
Surnames: Bruns, Janssen
Looking for any information on the my GG grandmothers family that immigrated to Belmond, IA in 1882. Her name was Trientje H Bruns(born 31 Oct 1850 Freespon, East Friesland, Germany) to Jacob Cornelius Janssen in Germany they moved to the Meservey, IA area approx 1900.

Need help locating her parents names and siblings. I know she had one sister Greta Bruns (born abt 1864) who married Siebelt William Schuler - lived in the Belmond, Wright cty area. One brother L H (don't know what the L H stands for) Bruns (abt 1852) who lived in Floyd or Butler County, wifes name was something like Grietje or Gertis Beckman.

Possibly other siblings immigrated about the same time to Hampton or Belmond, IA.

Thank you for any help.
