BAUMGARTNER
Looking for information on the Baumgartner family living in Dodge
County in 1870 and 1880. Rudolph and Susan Baumgartner and sons
Jacob(half-brother) Rudy, John and Fred. Rudoph came to Wisconsin
with his Father John Jacob in 1846 from Glarus, Switzerland. He
married Susan Dinger in Green County,Wisconsin and moved to Dodge
County MN. I have found them in the 1870 and 1880 census. If any
one has access to the 1875 MN State Census, I would appreciate a
look up to see if John is still in the family as he is not listed
with the family in the 1880 census. Family legend has it that
their were four siblings but we only knew of Jacob, Rudy(my Great
grandfather) and Fred untill I found John in the 1870 census I
would love to know what happened to John between the 1870 and
1880 census. Looking through the list of Baumgartner graves in
Bern Cemetary, I cannot find a John listed. Thank you Susan Egan

then left for Day County, South Dakota. He had several
family members who lived in this area and immigrated before

it would be prudent to send a class reunion invitation to that
address. I have tried to access the Hayfield Herald
newspaper for this information, but it appears their server is
down, as the same question to them has gone unanswered, and I
cannot gain access into their paper's site. No one amongst
other classmates seems to know if Mr. Scholl's death is

Louise was wife of Harry Abel Davis Cotton. Harry
was born 21 June 1865 in New Hampshire and is my great
uncle. Louise was born in January 1874 in Wisconsin
according to census data. She and Harry married in
Wisconsin 16 May 1894 probably in Juneau County since this is
where the family was living in 1900. Moved to Dodge Center
sometime after 1900 since the 1900 federal census has them still
living in Wisconsin. I believe her father and mother, Henry
Schueneman and Margaruite S. Aegerter Schueneman, purchased and
operated a creamery in Dodge Center with Harry A. D. Cotton
working for him. This is according to 1910 federal census
information. Harry and Louise had two children, Orville V.
and Charlotte G. Orville was born in Wisconsin in January
1900 and Charlotte in Dodge County 20 November 1916. Harry
died 13 January 1946. Orville died 20 June 1932 and
Charlotte died 3 October 1938. Louise's father, Henry, died
30 January 1924 in Dodge Center and her mother, Margaruite, died
30 December 1925. Louise was living in Dodge Center
probably in the early to mid-1950s. I remember going as a
young boy with my parents to visit her. I know very little
of this family. I am unable to find her (Louise's) death
date and locate where this family is buried. I hope
that someone can help. cotton149@attbi.com

I found on the internet, a strange
record regarding a much sought after relative's history.
Surname KATREIN,
Given Name Henry.
What I found says his name in regestered on Minnesota
Naturalization Records Index, St. Paul, Dodge county (?).
It is a Declaration of Intention in the years 1858-1906, says
"Numbers 1-555". "REEL 1" Volume
"A", page 534.
We think his wife's name was Minnie, we think he had a daughter
named Josephine born 1913. We are sure they are buried somewhere
near Turtle Lake, WI. but could be wrong.
Immigration cannot help me in Wash. DC because I cannot supply a
birthdate of Henry. Can you help? He would be the only link to
