Posted on: Dakota Co. Mn Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mn/Dakota/575 Surname: Schaack ------------------------- Hello Tricia: We agree---there is little known about the Schaack family who followed the Westward movement to Dakota county, MN, and then to Codington County, SD. But my husband, Ken, has been working on it for about a year now. He'll be pleased to get your message when I forward it to him. I used his name and email address in this response so you can get in direct contact with him. My name is Karon; we were married in Watertown, SD, in December 1964. There are still Schaacks in the Kranzburg-Watertown-Henry (SD) area. Your Great-Grandmother, Barbara, is an older sister of my husband's father, Paul Peter Schaack. I believe I remember Barbara was one of the oldest children, Paul Peter was one of the youngest. So, yes, you and my husband (and my 3 children) are related! I am sure my husband will want to communicate with you further.
