He went by Dick or Dietrich in most public records and she appears as Lena, Paulina or Paula. He was born in 1852 in Germany, is present in 1920 and has died before 1930. She was born in 1858 at sea (listed as "at sea" or Louisiana) on the way from Germany. Their children were unmarried in Oklahoma in 1910 so I don't know if they married by the time they moved to Nodaway County or not. Daughter Katie age 22 was still with them in 1920 so she likely did marry there, the others were a son John (wife Grace Cuttrell?), so Herman (wife Rose Cuttrell?), son Louis (wife Ethel Raff?) and daughter Anna b 1895. Are there any indexes of death records for the county in the 1920s that could help find a death date for Dietrich? Or perhaps someone knows where he and Paula/Lena are buried and their stones would help? Also, I greatly appreciate it if someone could check the Nodaway County marriages to see if there are any Ennen's listed? They moved around quite a bit and it's been difficult to know just what to look for where! From 1875 to early 1880's they were in central Illinois, then to Nebraska til early 1890s, then in Custer County, OK til at least 1910, then they were off to Nodaway County by 1920 thru at least 1930. Thanks for any help with this family! Darren
