As a Betlach I will be forever grateful to Kathryn Betlach Dankowski
for her dedication to the research of The Betlach and Cerhan Family Lines.
She is the one who deserves the vast majority of credit for the
information contained in those family charts below.

~~~~~ Thank you, Kathryn! ~~~~~

I learned very recently that Kathryn passed away in January 2017.
I would like to express my heartfelt sympathy to her family.
She will be deeply missed.


*****Please Note*****
My previous family history web site that contains either geocities or oocities.org
in the web address is obsolete and should be regarded as such.
Thank you!

If anyone has any information they would be willing to share, such as Obituaries, Death Certificates,
Photos, family information or if anyone finds anything in any of these charts that needs
correcting please contact me. Please feel free to print whatever you like from this site.
I believe that genealogy should be shared and it should be free.
If there is anything I can help you with concerning any family on this site,
please don't hesitate to contact me.

I am also related to the Dols Family. My great-great grandmother was
Mary Elizabeth Dols who married John Michael Borka.
I have not included any information about the Dols family on this site because
a wonderful book was written by Betty Dols in 1989 on the entire Dols Family.
If anyone would like any information on the Dols family, I would be more than happy
to look the information up in the book and share it with you; just send me an e-mail!
Dols
***Thank you so much for your visit!***
I hope you enjoyed your stay and I hope you will visit again, soon!
My condolences to the Dols family of Edina, Minnesota for the loss of their daughter, Melissa.
Please see the "In Memory" page for more information.
Help me solve these
mysteries!!

Kugler
Henriette Kusserow immigrated to the US when she was 17, at the same time the
Johann & Johanna Kusserow Dresow family did, which leads me to believe Henriette could have been a sister
to Johanna. I cannot find confirmation of this yet but I am still looking. I do know that Henriette
married Joseph Kugler and that they had nine children. Henriette died the day her ninth
child, Arnold was born, April 30, 1892. If anyone can validate this or share any information on
this branch of the Kusserow/Kugler family, I would appreciate you contacting me.
Thanks!
Joseph and Henriette Kusserow Kugler
Joseph was born December 15,1853, the son of Georg and Maria Ritter Kugler.
Henriette Kusserow was born November 16, 1854, the daughter of Christian Kusserow.
Joseph & Henriette were married at Waconia (Carver) Minnesota on January 23, 1877
Their children: Anton, Juliana, John, Rose, Frank, Otto, Elizabeth, Kathryn and Arnold.
The family was living in Adrian (Nobles) Minnesota when Henriette died.
Joseph died April 28, 1932 in Burleigh County, North Dakota.
