France owned that land much of the time, but it is populated mostly by Germans. Great Grandma's family were possibly Hueterites and settled in the Yankton SD area. She was an infant when she came to America. She married at the age of 16 to a man named Unruh and they homesteaded near where the Guenthers lived. She had a small baby, Henry Unruh. Her husband died and she was alone on the claim during the great blizzard of 1888 living in a sod house. She told my uncle that she carried hay into the house and twisted it to use as fuel in her stove. By twisting it, it burned slower. She was only about 18 at that time. After the blizzard, my great Grandpa (George) decided to walk over to see how the young widow fared during the blizzard. Romance bloomed and they were married. Their children were George, jr. who died of diphtheria at a young age and is buried a couple of miles from their original farm because the roads were so muddy in the spring they could not get his body to Parker for burial. My Grandpa showed my uncle Gordon the spot one time, but he as since forgotten just where the spot is. Their second child was Nettie followed by Mary, Emma (my Grandmother) and Edward. Nettie married Henry Koller (from a German family of that same area). They had 5 children. Ruth (married to Carlton Strange), Ardell, Erma and Morris. Erma was married to Roy Lundquist of Sioux Falls. (Roy's brother Carl was President of Bethel College and Seminary of St Paul MN). Mary married Carl Wright of Parker and had one daughter Jeanne who married Fred Fenton of Mount Pleasant Iowa. Emma married James Henry Terwilliger (My Grandfather) and had 4 children, Gordon, Nada Dorene, Raymond and James Edward (My Dad). Edward married first a woman name Stella (divorced) then married Sylvia from Minnesota. They had 2 sons, Dean and Richard. Dean was an MD in St Paul MN.
