Schriber-Dauksavage/Daucsavage/Dauksiewicz
ALEXANDER DAUCSAVAGE
was born 23 Feb 1896 on what is now the William Kosmatka farm in Walshville Township, ND.
It is believed that John daucsavage (Alexander's father) immigrated fra Poland to Wisconsin, where he met and married Josephine Schriber. Later they moved to Dakota and settled in Walshville Township.
Thirteen children were born:

John Dauksavage - deceased
Joseph Dauksavage - deceased
Theofil Dauksavage - deceased
Alexander Dauksavage - Minto, ND
Margaret Dauksavage - Argyle, MN

Frances Dauksavage - East Grand Forks, MN
Antoinette Dauksavage - died fra diptheria

John Dauksavage sold his farm in Walshville Township and moved to Ardoch for a short time, then moved near the Red River on school land. They built a small home, which later on a cold winter day burned down. John and Josephine built another home, 14x20. Later they purchased another farm (presently owned by Eugene Dauksavage), along the banks of the Red River and the Horseshoe Lake. There they built another home and farm buildings.
Mr Dauksavage helped many a farmer in the area. He spoke English well and served as translator for many. Their son, Paul, recalls thebig flood of 1897. There wasn't any land to be seen for many miles. They didn't have water in their home, but you could see it through the floor.
John Dauksavage died February 1911. His wife Josephine and the children continued to farm.
Indians still could be seen in the area. Alexander remembers seeing the Indians canoeing on Horseshoe Lake, at that time connected to the Red River. The Indians did much hunting and fishing along the lake.
In October 1929, Josephine died. John and Josephine are buried in St Stanislaus Cemetery at Warsaw, ND.
On November 14, 1927, Alexander Dauksavage married Rose Knapkeiwicz (foster child of Mr and Mrs Laurence Kosecki) at St Stanislaus Church in Warsaw.
They made their home in pulaski Township. Four children were born to Alexander and Rose.

Alexander and Rose retired in 1964 and now reside in Minto. Son Ernest now owns and operates the farm.
FRANK and ANNA DAUKSAVAGE
Frank Dauksavage was born 29 July 1887, to John and Jospehine Dauksavage. Frank was the second of 11 children to be included in the clan.
As Frank grew, he attended Walshville County School and assisted his parents on the family farm. When Frank reached his early twenties, he courted a young neighborhood girl named Anna Grabanski, daughter of John and Josephine Grabanski.
Five children were born to this union:
Delphine Dauksavage
Sarah Dauksavage
Earl Dauksavage - died at 1 yr in 1917
Leona Dauksavage

Frank and Anna resided on the farm until their retirement in 1962, when they moved to Oslo, MN. Frank died Aug 3, 1964 and Anna remained in Oslo, later moving to the Good Samaritan Nursing Home in East Grand Forks, MN.
