They arrived in the US in 1871 from Prussia. I have them on a 1880 Stearns Ct. MN census but one daughter Elise was 4 when they arrived is not on the census. Since the 1890 census is not available I had to check out the 1900 and did not find them on that census. I did find their two sons who headed west. They were on the 1900 census in Washington State. My first post was to know what Catholic church would be in that area in that time period or the Diocese of the area to see if they have records. I have found other Sura's in the area but have not been able to conncect them to mind.
