There is another listing for Driever, Fredrick 1836-1905, his wife Fredrica 1841-1919, then Lena M and Anna W. There are also references to Dolls, but none you mentioned.

I will see what I can find. I know one of the brothers went to OK and some of their descendants ended up in CA. There are other Drievers in the Hamburg, IA area which is where they mainly lived that are not closely related to me, so I am assuming they are from a brother of Carl F. I would be interested in any info you have on where they originated in Germany. There is also a Driever in CO who has a website.

I have ordered the complete penion package and nothing in that 220 pages was helpful. We are still unable to find either thomas or Mary . Probably would help if we knew where to look. I can not find a 1900 census for Archie either. Any suggestions? thanks, Becky

Electa would be my ggggmother, and this marriage took place after her first husband died. Their eldest daughter, Margaret Agnes is my ancestor. Reason I ask is because on the census, it appears that the last name is Sherman, not Shepard, but they're really close so I could just be misreading it. Thanks, Brenda Munroe

October 8, 1908. "FALL HEIR TO REAL ESTATE".-- Tabor Iowa, Oct. 1st.--Several Tabor families have recently fallen heir to real estate interests in other states. The children of Mrs. Mary Starrett will soon receive their distributive shares of a valuable residence property centrally located in the city of Monmonth,Ill., that belongs to their father's sister, the late Mrs. Mary Hamilton, who died intestate. The surviving heirs and next of kin are the children of George Starrett of Brooklyn, N.Y., those of Daniel Starrett of Lenora, Kan., and Mrs. Mary Starrett's five children--Geroge Starrett of Omaha, Mrs. Edith Starrett Hunter, Will, Harry and Fred Starrett, all of Tabor. The Hamilton estate is being settled in the present term of the probate court at Monmouth and a decree for the sale of property and distribution of proceeds will soon issue. The Hopkins heirs may receive their share of valuable city realty in Wheeling, W. Va. At an early day, a Richard Simms, an uncle of the late Richard Simms Hopkins, of Tabor, donated a tract of land at Wheeling to be used as a cemetery, but as the city grew it was changed into a public park, contrary to the design of the donor. Suit has been instituted and if finally successful, as there is good reason to believe it will be, the land in the heart of the city will revert to the heirs. The Tabor heirs are Mrs.Hopkins, widow of R. S. Hopkins, and her two daughters, Mrs. J. C. Stevenson and Miss Bessie Hopkins.

September 17, 1908. "VISITS OLD FREMONT FRIENDS".-- Jonas Petit an old time resident of Fremont county, but now of Ashton, Kansas, gave this office a pleasant call Friday. Mr. and Mrs.Petit had been visiting relatives and old friends in Sidney and vicinity the past week, and before leaving for their home in Kansas he came in and had his subscription to the SUN moved up a notch. During the course of our conversation Mr. Petit said that when he first came to Fremont county in 1865 it was one hundred miles to the nearest railroad, and freight had to be hauled that distance by teams or brought up the Missouri river in flat boats, and hauled by teams from the landing there. Mr.Petit has been a reader of the SUN a good many years and though living at a distance from here, through the columns of the SUN keeps posted on Sidney's advancement. N.B.: If the pioneers of Fremont county thought they had a long way to haul supplies, think about the supplies that had to reach the Pottawatomie Indians, or Fort Croghan. This need for decent roads lead Field's Trace, and to the old Council Bluffs - St. Joseph road. High (Bridge) Creek still exists to remind us of that distant past. Petit referred to the later, various landings on the Missouri river, which saw so much use before freight could be brought into the county by railroad-- about 1868 or 1869.. The Hamburg landing was probably the best known, followed by the Kingsbury landing which served the northernmost parts of the county. One of the McKissicks had a warehouse, storehouse, at the Hamburg landing, and Harlow Kingsbury had the same at his landing. Merchants in counties along the East Nishnabotna above Fremont county seemed to perfer hauling freight from the Hamburg Landing. Moses Payne had a landing in the old Baker's Oven area south of Nebraska City, say five or six miles, mainly for his own use, but which was often used by Sidney and called the Sidney Landing. Another landing which comes to mind was the one opposite Nebraska City, or Eastport Landing. There was a woodyard at Civil Bend, but I don't recall of seeing anything about it being used for landing freight.--W.F.
