Instead of being at the northern end of The Council Bluffs country on Oct. 6, 1843, this baptismal reunion was on Sept. 10, 1843 (nor was it in October). Based on this corrected date, Hoecken would have been baptizing every day from Sept. 10 through Sept. 15. His schedule DOES NOT ALLOW any time in a time line for traveling from Pottawattommie county down to Fremont county. Instead, Hoecken must have started at Bartlett at Alcott's 'place of public accommodation'. See the posting "Father Hoecken missionary trip..." dated 28 April 2009.
