According to Lore (Schoening) Brown and others who have researched our family tree, the <br /> family came from Runau Germany, a Prussian Duchy. <br /> An elder William Schoening married Pauline A Kunde and they immigrated to America about 1860. <br /> William (II) Schoening married Alvina Gusie. He was born at Stillwater, MN on Dec. 13th, 1862. They <br /> married in 1890. This writer has their Golden Wedding day photo dated 1940. <br /> The Justice of Peace Civil Docket contains entries from 1915 to 1940 on some 40 pagesall in <br /> Willy's handwriting. Most deal with minor disputes over property and some assaults. The ledger itemizes <br /> costs of the proceedings which Willy would have been reimbursed for from the County, I believe. <br /> A complete report on this would be quite interesting as would biographies of the early settlers in the <br /> township. -- Jim Roehl <br /> 3 ms 's` err. <br /> ^r n c <br /> laa, ���r <br /> se:,.. <br /> 11 wimme— <br /> ��� f � I `� � � e 4 d � A� <br /> g <br /> R k 6 .� 9 PP 8 .d <br /> i <br /> Yr <br /> Greenfield City Board in 1958 at the time of the switch from township to city status. <br /> Back Row L-R: Walter Schoening, accessor;John Steinke, roads; ? city attorney; Vernon Paluge, <br /> constable; Eddy Bursch constable; Wm.
