To answer your question about where Clarence Borkowski fits in, he was the son of Otto F. and Emma Paulsen Borkowski. Siblings of Clarence were Mamie Rostermund, Roy, Earl and Harold (Jack) Borkowski.

Great collection of historic information. I am tracing two German immigrant families, the Musfeldts and the Barners, mostly in eastern Iowa.

I have been to your site several times over the last ... wow ... 20 years now. I just wanted to commend you on the quality and amount of information you make available to all of us. You have done and continue to do an absolutely amazing job. Thank you so very much for your desire and dedication.

Thank you for the stories and history, very much enjoy reading and sharing with my family.

A very well-done site with a high level of local historical significance. Thanks for sharing it with me.

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.
