Grampa's letter 1890
Doing some snooping, I found the town that our Grandfather came from in Germany was spelled wrong in our family history book. Wilhelm Rüdebusch aka Ruedebusch, recieved his 1890-1892 letters from Kirchhatten, Germany in care of Christian Kröger aka kroeger, Hooper, Dodge County, Nebraska, Nordamerica.
