I have two Kruse brothers, William and Robert marrying sisters in one branch of my family in Michigan in relatively recent times. William Kruse married Mary Louise Hargis in 1949 and Robert Kruse married her younger sister Jocelyn Hargis in 1952. Both marriages were in Michigan. Both sisters were born in Auglaize County. Their Brother, Charles Hargis, is involved in genealogy research. I don't know if this helps anyone. - Erin Nikitchyuk [email protected] >OHSHELBY-D Digest                                Volume 01 : Issue 213 > >Today's Topics: > #1 Re: [OHSHELBY] William/elizabeth/    ["BRUCE G SLOAN" <[email protected]] >From: <[email protected]> >To: <[email protected]> >Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2001 11:25 PM >Subject: [OHSHELBY] William/elizabeth/ son Henry KRUSE > > >> >> This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. >> >> Surnames: KRuse >> Classification: Query >> >> Message Board URL: >> >> http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/CYB.2ACE/379 >> >> Message Board Post: >> >> Does anyone have info to share on Kruse family. >> Records show a Shelby co birth of Henry A.Kruse to William and Elizabeth >Poppe/Kruse. >> 10 oct 1878. >> Have been trying to locate any info on the William Kruse who played with >the John Philip sousa band in 1927.
