She took comfort in working in her garden, sewing, antiquing and collecting forms of Victorian art along with the time she spent reading.

My tie to them is via August Engelhardt who married my g-grandfather's sister Ida Groth about 1898. August was son of William & Louisa Engelhardt (he born Prussia ca1846 and she born Mecklenburg ca1850, according to the 1880 census). I have reason to believe that Louisa was nee Groth. William Engelhardt's father was John. John was b. Dec. 20, 1818, in Germany, m. Maria Schmidt in Germany in 1840. John and Maria Engelhardt and family came to America in 1862 and settled on a farm near Garnavillo.

Obviously I KNOW that Nettie Frisbie's maiden name is Kightlinger. Trying to do too many things at once, as is par, and copied and pasted to make up the query and didn't catch the mistake until it came to my inbox. Barb
Hi, Hope someone can help me sort out a puzzel. My Great Grandfather's nephew, Daniel Latimer Spencer born 26 August 1889, LaFayette Twp., Story county, IA is presenting us researching the Spencer and related families a puzzle. Daniel Latimer Spencer is son of William Carlin and Hattie K. (Williamson) Spencer. 1910 has Daniel L Spencer in Iowa, Hamilton, Marion Twp. and he is Boarder 20 and Single. By 1920 Daniel is enumerated twice. There is a wife, Hazel who has been determined by the census entry to be born a Frisbie. Her parents Jack and Nettie UNKNOWN Frisbie. Hope someone can enlighten us on Nettie's maiden name? Sign of a first wife for Daniel, Divorce from Hazel or her death. Any information on the people mentioned. 1920 Iowa, Clay Co., Spencer township Spencer Dan Head m w 30 M Iowa United States Norway Linotype? News paper Spencer Hazel wife f w 23 m Iowa Iowa Iowa 1920 Iowa, Winnebago, Forest City; Forest 10-10 Frisbie, Jack B.

M Iowa, Pennsylvania, Sweden Jack D son m w 11 S Iowa, Iowa, Iowa Spencer Hazel C Daughter f w 23 M Iowa, Iowa, Iowa Spencer Daniel Son-in-law m w 29 M Iowa, Iowa, Iowa, Printer, Printing Office In 1920 Daniel Spencer's first born daughter Elaine age 4 7/12 is enumerated with Claude & Margaret (Spencer) Sanders in Story Co. as niece b. MN, father born Iowa, mother b. Unknown. It is suspect that Daniel's been married prior to the marriage to Hazel Frisbie and that the UNKNOWN wife has died. It isn't know if Hazel dies (as Daniel marries again at some point in MN) or if they divorce. Looking for that or any information. This same first born daughter of Daniel Spencer is enumerated with her Paternal Grandparents WC & Hattie (Williamson) Spencer in 1930 Census in Story City as Ellen E. age 14 b. MN and mother and father are said born Iowa. By 1930, Hazel is with her parents with the second born daughter of Daniel Spencer, and Hazel's info say married 22, so Hazel and Daniel going by that are married 1918/1919 but Daniel Spencer is in MN. 1930 Iowa, O'Brien, Floyd 710 230 267 Frisbie Jack B Head m w 54 m 20 Iowa, father New York, mother Ohio, State Inspector p?i??

Jacob Fatherinlaw m w 77 Wd 19 Pennsylvania, father Pennsylvania, mother Scotland So one daughter is with Paternal grandparents and the other is with the maternal grandparents and her Mother and Daniel L Spencer is a Lodger in St. Paul, Ramsey, Minnesota in 1930. To make me wonder about Daniel being married three times his WW I Draft card from June of 1917 states that he has a wife and child and that the wife is sick with Tuberculosis. Daniel's obituary lists among others as surviving him, wife Joyce. So that makes Daniel suspect to having been married x 3. Obviously Hazel is mother to Jean. Jean later married a Bergan, Clarence. I don't see how Hazel can be the mother of the first born daughter. Either Hazel and Daniel have divorced or Hazel dies since Daniel's wife is Joyce in his 1961 obituary. Wondering if anyone relates or if someone might have access to records for these counties to see if Daniel L. Spencer married there or if there might be records on any of these people there? Maybe there's someone related here that can fill in some of these blanks? Thanks and regards, Barb Drummer

Thank-you all for bearing with us during this frustrating time of mean-spirited people posting nasty things to the Clayton co. Query, Obit, Bio & Document Boards. The good news is ....... IAGenWeb Tech team has now made it possible to moderate all postings. From now on, when someone posts to one of the four Clayton county boards, the poster will see this response: "Thanks for contributing!" "Your post will appear in the index as soon as it's been approved by the moderator." As the administrator, I will get an email telling me I have pending messages to approve. As soon as I approve the posting, it will appear on the board. The tech team should get this set up by Thursday or Friday, and at that time I will open the gateway so all approved board postings will again come to this list. Thanks again for being so understanding these past weeks. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays! Sharyl Ferrall http://iagenweb.org/clayton
