I was at the South County Antique Mall on Tesson Ferry and purchased a Birthday postcard that was dated Feb. 14, 1912, addressed to Mrs. (lools like) Aug Bonacker, R # 1, Pevely, Mo. (a 2 cent stamp) It say's "Dear Mother, Accept our congradulations for your birthday. With best wished for many more. This leaves us all well only we have all had very bad colds grip like, but are getting better. Hope this finds you all well. I remain as ever, from Kate, Herm, Esther, Howard and Ruth." I was checking the census records and there is an Augusta Bonacker at Meramec Twshp, Jefferson Co., Mo. Other names listed on the census record are, Annie, Daniel, Frederic, Augusta, Walter, Katie, Robert, Charles & Lester. The images is not very clear and the typed members in the household don't show the ages or relationship on all the names. There is another family on the 1900 Census for Henry Bonacker, head, Annie, wife, Tillie and Katie are daughters. This is for Rock Twnshp, Jefferson Co., Mo. The 1910 Census for Crystal Twnshp, Jefferson Co., Mo. has August Bonavker head, Anna wife, Gusta, Walter, Katie, Robert, Charles and Luster all children. The 1920 Cenus for Jefferson Co., Mo. has other Bonacker's as well. I'll check to see if I can get posted on the Jefferson County website. Sharon (Hartzell) Smith Washington Co., MO.
