the Mississippi to St. Louis and went inland. They arrived at
Wentzville with $25. They were taken in by the Auping family and lived
with them. Carl worked in a grocery store butcher shop and Mary in a
hotel. Later they bought a farm. They were of the Luthern faith and
spoke Low German at home and High German at school and church.
