Read More	Frederick BENDER born at Kassel, Glueckstal, Odessa, South Russia, was the son of Christian BENDER and Elisabetha GROSSHANS. In search of a better life, after leaving the port of Bremen, Germany on the 27th of May 1913, the Frederick BENDER family arrived at Ellis Island, New York aboard the SS "Kronprinzessin Cecilie" on the 3rd of Jun 1913. Their final USA destination was to be somewhere near Eureka, South Dakota to meet up with his uncle, Friedrich BENDER. The ship's manifest also revealed that Frederick had $3,450 in his pocket of whatever currency it may have been at that time. After briefly visiting with relatives in the Dakotas all family members eventually continued on by train to Irvine, Alberta, Canada. Since the BENDER family wanted to settle near relatives that had already settled in the Hilda area and homesteads were already scarce there, Frederick purchased the 320 acre W ½ of Sec 8, Twp 18, Rge 1, W 4th, from the Hudson's Bay Co. Also after an unknown homesteader in 1915 dropped his rights to the NW ¼ of Sec 35, Twp 17, Rge 2, W 4th, Frederick BENDER filed for a homestead on that 160 acre parcel of land.
