Nic Kraus (42) with wife Anna Poeckes (36) and children Frank. (born 9 Feb 1904) , Catherine (2), and Joseph (5) arrive 14 Jun 1909 on ship "Lapland" from Antwerp in NY. According to passenger manifests they were heading for Harvey, North Dakota (Wells Co.). They were related to Poeckes siblings (Anton, Joseph and Catherine, inlaws of Nick Kraus) on the same ship also heading for Harvey. Frank Studies graduated in social studies at the University of Dakota in North Forks, and taught at the high School in Burlington and later in Cody (WY), where he died in 1993. Who has information on what happened to the other members of the Kraus family after their arrival. I'm collecting data and iconographic material for an article and will be driving coming through Harvey on my way to Fargo in the next days and would like to have some advance information.
