This gentleman and 10 immigrated to the US in 1868 from Hamberg. He came to the Davenport, IA, area and married Amelia Dreeszen in Davenport, IA, in 1874, They came to Sheridan Twp. in Carroll County, IA, after several years in Davenport. Herman was born 12 Mar. 1841 in Germany and died 11 Nov 1913 in Carroll County. They raised two boys and two girls. My grandfather John was one of those boys. Does anyone out there know anything about this line, who Herman's brothers and sisters were or anymore on the lineage? Thanks. Judee
