Surnames: ARENS HENDEL Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Cm.2ADI/53.1.1 Message Board Post: The Luxembourger HENDEL side of my ancestors settled near Caledonia, MN but only migrated as far as Nobles Co., MN. My Luxembourger ARENS side settled near St. Donatus, IA (also largely Luxembourger community). Then migrated by wagon train to Alton and Remsen, IA about 1870. I'm curious to learn the surnames of those who migrated from Caledonia to Tipton. My ARENS, and most of the Luxembourgers who settled near St. Donatus, were from southwestern Luxembourg. My HENDEL were from north central Luxembourg. Is there a 'history of Tipton' that relates this 'wagon train' event? I would like to learn more of these luxembourgers.
