I am looking for my ggg grandfather. According to the 1880 census, he was living in Paynesville, MN with his wife Sophie, Son Frederick, daughter-in-law Wilhelmina and 2 grand-daughters, Amelia and Augusta (my great grandmother). In 1888, Frederick and Wilhelmina moved to Deuel County, SD with their children. In 1903, Sophie moved to SD and stayed with Fred and MInnie until her death in 1907. It appears Christian died about then, but I can find no further records of him other than the 1880 census. As a side note, I am also looking for the rest of Christian and Sophia's children. Frederick's obit stated he was preceeded in death by 3 sisters and 1 brother, Marion Kruger. It also said he was survived by 2 sisters, one in North Dakota and one in Wisconsin. I have been able to locate one sister, Augusta Kruger, married Carl Splinter and settled in the Deuel County area of SD as well. Augusta is one of the sisters that preceeded Frederick, she died in 1922. Frederick died in 1924. Kristi
