Bill Puck was a double first cousin of my grandmother Ida Struve.

Reading your website tonight about a Gilbert Moore being buried in AndersonPrison, caught my attention. I live only about40 or so miles from it....in fact my husband and I visited it this summer. Little did I realize Iowa had soldiers buried there. Very interesting place. You need to visit it sometime. But recommend you come NOT in the summer unless you are use to Georgia heat, humidity!

Thank you so much for keeping this website up to date and for taking time to share about the history, too. My grandparents are from Manning and my aunt still lives there. I have very fond memories of time spent visiting in Manning. Every time I come back I'm so happy to see that the town is flourishing!

I was in Manning last summer doing family history. Thanks to your web site I had a good time locating graves etc. Was looking for Fonken family history. My neice and I will be returning.

I have Polzin relatives from Strussow, Kreis Butow and have a DNA connection with a cousin descended from the David’s. Her David’s settled in Iowa. Is there a way I can get in contact with David and Polzin descendants in the area?

I was reading your or should I say our family tree, Very interesting!! I'm going to look at the book my mother put together and see if she had the early names where we are related.

So very interesting to read your website. I was an AFS student at MHS 1973-4, even recognise some of my class in the photos, Bill Johnson and Bev Baker.

Amazing experience! Love to you all from the UK! xxx

We enjoyed seeing the photos of our family with the Easter Bunny at the Manning Plaza on Saturday, March 31, 2018. Thanks for sharing! Also, thank you for all the historical treasures you're adding to this site!

I still visit the site quite often. However I have a very big favor to ask, You did a wonderful job honoring my cousin Arlo Dammann. In it are pictures of my paternal grandparents Claus and Anna Dammann. They must have been in their twenties. I have never seen these pictures before and since I have done a lot of family history I would like to know where I could get a copy of it. Any information would be a help. Thanking you in advance,

Looking at your website today your picture of a farm that you guess whose farm is the farm I grew up on......the George Struve farm.... Currently Curt and Rexanne Struve. Original house has been replaced with a large log home.
