'Iowaz'
Although most of my
information and resources involve Fayette
county, many of the families came through
Clayton Co. I have photographed
the 1882 and 1916 Clayton Co. Histories, and
the 1886 Clayton co. plat map. My photos are
hosted online at 'Fotki'. All pictures can be
downloaded free by clicking a thumbnail,
opening a medium picture, clicking the 'get
original uploaded photo' link under the
medium picture to open the large version.
Finally, right click the large photo and save
it to your computer harddrive.

Clancy Engler
Andrew Engler Homestead
Andreas I. Engler -
Margaretha Loess
In 1852 my
great grandfather Andrew Engler married &
moved to Garnavillo where he lived for two
years before moving to the
Cascade-Worthington, IA (Dubuque co.) area
where he lived the remainder of his life. When
Andrew was in Garnavillo, he lived
with John S. Engler. John's daughters
married into the Anderson, Tonner and
Troester families, some of who still live in
Clayton Co. John's son, Charles, was a
noted hardware store proprietor in
Garnavillo. My website explains the
Garnavillo connection & gives additional
information on the Engler family. I am
particularly interested in finding out who
the parents of John and Andrew were.

Matt Miller
Miller / Muller Family
History
My Miller
(Muller) family line has origins in Clayton
County (Boardman Township). The family
was originally "Muller" and came
from Luxembourg, I believe initially on
August 8th, 1863. My genealogy web-site
that has been recently updated with
significant information on this family line.
Click on Miller/ Muller from the index page
for ancestry and descendant reports, ancestry
trees, scanned copies of original vital
records, as well as pictures of the Miller
family taken in late 1800s and early
1900s. I have information from the 1870
census listed on this family. I
have pictures of the gravestones of the Peter
Miller household (including John Peter
Miller) in St. Joseph's Cemetary in
Elkader. The Michael Miller family left
for Westphalia, Iowa in the late 1800s.

Sue Nickum
"Monona Letters"
...a work in
progress, called "Monona Letters".
It contains a collection of letters written
between 1877 and 1898. The principle parties
are my great grandmother, Alice Grace Boyles
Reynolds, her sister, Margaret Ann Boyles
Blaisdell, and a third sister, Emma Helen
Boyles Gray. There's no great historical
significance in the letters, but they're
chatty and gossipy and mention many, many
people who lived in Monona during those
years. Margaret Blaisdell was the great
grandmother of my newly found distant
relative, Mary Anne Love Blaisdell who did
some brilliant research and found dozens of
little snippets of information about many of
those people, bringing Monona 1880 alive.
Additionally, the letters tell a very loving,
moving, and sad story. It occurs to me there
might be information which other researchers
would be pleased to find. And, conversely,
other researchers might have information to
share with me.
