Dear List-- I have located a picture of my father's confirmation class at Zion Lutheran Church. I think the date would be @1925. Amazingly, he remembers the following names: Elizabeth Sterner, Elizabeth Yeckel, Helen Kroeger, Emily Bishop, Ellen (?) Drew, Ruth Groncy, Helen Middlestedt (sp?), Mabel ?, Johnny Palmer, boy (Bill) Lang, Elmer Bogrin, and Johnny Weigand. He remembers that Johnny Weigand married Ruth Groncy. The two pastors pictured are Pastor Noak and Pastor Spiegel. I also have confirmation class pictures for my aunt and uncle, which would have been several years earlier. When I figure that out, I will post that also. If you are related to any of these dudes or dudettes, please let me know and I will send you a copy of the photo. Regards, Janie

Hi Janie, Would your father remember some of the parent's names? I'm really interested in "Emily BISHOP". Thanks for sharing!

Hi Janie I am related to Helen Kroeger and would appreciate a copy of the picture. Also, I knew some of these people as well. Mable might be Mable Shale, Elmer is Elmer Bulgrin. BTW, what is your father's name. My father was Otto Damerow and my mother is Margaret Kroeger Damerow.

Hi, Janie, Does your father remember any members of the Lange or Kutz families? My grandmother was Emma Lange, daughter of Wilhelm and Henriette (Kutz) Lange. My grandmother was baptized at Zion Lutheran in 1888 and transferred her membership to Concordia Lutheran in 1913, at the time of her marriage. Other relatives had the surnames Koehn, Garske, and Schellin. I know next to nothing about my grandmother’s family and would appreciate any information he could share. Thanks!
