AbstractThese are the fascinating stories of women who pioneered in South Dakota, told in their own words. Mary Agnes Kessler was born in Dubuque County, Iowa on May 15, 1861. Her father had left Germany at the age of seventeen. Mary was married to Dennis W. Sullivan and the bride and groom came by train to Dakota Territory, Lake County. Katie M. Artz was born in Mehr, Germany on Dec. 19, 1892 of a German mother and a Dutch father. In May of 1893 the family immigrated to America, and in the summer to South Dakota, Potter County.
