I am interested in finding information about the three daughters of Anna Stockebrand Donnerberg. They were born in the 1890's in Yates Center. One of them was named Iva (my grandmother) and married Leonard Howes. Also, I am trying to identify the relationship between Anna Donnerberg, Martha Krueger, Pauline Toedman and Augusta Lauber. I have a photograph of all these women and several children taken about 1900. Was Augusta a member of the Harder family who accompanied the Stockebrands over on the ship from Germany? The children in the photo are identified as Iva, Ruth (Ginger) Toedman, Pearl (?) with baby and Martha Krueger with baby. Bonnie Powers
