So they were married.  To this union was born: Arnold, FRANK JOSEPH, Gertrude, Karl and Hermann Henry.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space: normal; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; color: #271915; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: left; padding-top: 5px; font: 14px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; padding-left: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; letter-spacing: normal; padding-right: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-indent: 0.5in; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">FRANK JOSEPH worked at Steinfeld and in Holland, and learned the Cooper trade (Barrel Making) and made barrels to ship meat and fish to the other parts of the world.  The barrel maker, in those days, had to guarantee that the goods put into the barrels would not spoil of the voyage, and so he had to go along and tend to the barrels until they were received in good condition at the destination.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space: normal; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; color: #271915; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: left; padding-top: 5px; font: 14px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; padding-left: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; letter-spacing: normal; padding-right: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-indent: 0.5in; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">On one of these voyages, FRANK JOSEPH decided that he would stay in America.  He was married, by then and had a family of three boys and one girl: Henry Frank Arnold, JOSEPH and Elizabeth.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space: normal; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; color: #271915; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: left; padding-top: 5px; font: 14px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; padding-left: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; letter-spacing: normal; padding-right: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-indent: 0.5in; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">JOSEPH came to America in the spring or 1844 and worked for a man named Heying, in what is now Iowa.  There he rented a place and was preparing to have his family come over as soon as possible.  In late summer they left Germany and as the case then, thesailboat had bad winds and the voyage took a long time to get across.  When the family arrived in Iowa, FRANK JOSEPH had died and was buried just a week before the family got there.  Frank Arnold was then 14 and so had to work to help support the family.  (Frank Arnold was born 9/10/1932).</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space: normal; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; color: #271915; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: left; padding-top: 5px; font: 14px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; padding-left: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; letter-spacing: normal; padding-right: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-indent: 0.5in; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">JOSEPH (Born January 14, 1836) married SUSAN KLOSTERMAN (Born September 14, 1845) in Dyersville, Iowa.  (Her brother Hy Klosterman, was a Civil War Soldier).  They had nine children (first two born in Iowa so probably moved to Minnesota about 1870.  The children: Frank, Mary, Anna, Gertrude, Josephine, HENRY, Father Joseph, Benedict and John.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space: normal; text-transform: none; word-spacing: 0px; color: #271915; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: left; padding-top: 5px; font: 14px Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; padding-left: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; letter-spacing: normal; padding-right: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-indent: 0.5in; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">HENRY married ELIZABETH BACKES in 1902 – Probably in Farming, Minn.  They had eight children (first two born in Minn.)
