Hi Tressa,
Thanks for responding to the Gruhn family name.Are you
related?I am not familiar with the names you listed.
My greatgrandfather Wilheim Gruhn came to America from
Germany also.He had 5 brothers and 2 sisters---two of the
brothers remained in Germany.His father was Jacob Gotlieb
Gruhn born in Aus Walterdorf, Germany.Wilheim married
Dorothea Klautke in Germany and they had 9 living children
and they had lost 3 other children at birth.One of their
children, Dora, (the first born in America) was my grand-
mother, who was my dad's mother.Wilheim was born in 1856
and died in Manning, Iowa in 1939. Glenda Baker
