Julius M Fromelt's death record says his father Jos, mother Elizabeth, both German. 1880 IA census shows Anna in Clayton County, age 14. 1885 MN census shows Anna, Julius and 1 yr old son in Langola Township (Benton), MN; 1895 MN state census shows Julius, Anna and six children in Benton county MN. Julius states he's from Prussia, has been in MN since abt Feb 1880 and in Benton county since abt Dec 1881. Anna's obituary says Julius and Anna were married in St. Paul, MN. I have a notation 26May1883 but not sure if the date is correct for the marriage and not sure where the date is from . Some years ago I checked years 1882-1883 for Clayton county, IA and Ramsey county, MN for marriage records with no luck. Also checked Benton county, Immaculate Conception church , no records back that far. Don't remember if checked Benton county, but must have. Not sure if marriage records contain parents names, think maybe not. I've heard "declaration of intent" for citizernship might give parents names. What is your connection to the Fromelt name?
