| Abstract | Among the people who settled in Adams County [Nebraska] by 1886 were John and Margaret Busch (or Bausch), John and Eva Diederich, Nikolas (Nicholas) and Elise (Elizabeth) Konen, Peter (Pierre) and Johanna Heuertz, and John and Susanna Mangers. Each of these families originated in Luxembourg, lived for a time in Illinois or Iowa (where some of their relatives remained), and settled on farms Assumption. They kept their Catholic faith and embraced their common Luxembourger ancestry as they struggled to make a living in a new place. |
