Tom,
Thanks for the reply.Going back over the brothers and sisters, "Grandpa Bob" did talk about Jefferson, IA which is in Greene Co. IA and he talked a bit about his brother Marild, though we never knew how to spell it.
I have pictures of him also with my Grandmother and with the family.A great gentleman, and he came to California with us and worked with my Dad for some time as a roofer.Later, he went to work for another company here in which he built cooling towers for various companies that needed weater and steam cooled to be used again in their systems.
While living in Rockford Illinois, he worked at a Auto dismanteling place taking apart cars and junking them.We kids really like that place.
I know the area you talk about in Mannheim as I did a couple of military tours in Heidelberg.My wife's family is from the area across the Rhine and another group east of Heidelberg also.Did a lot of driving around there looking for family.
Anyway, what I have here is:
Robert Sydney Fettersb: Jun 6, 1885d: Jun 6, 1956.
1st wife Nellie Marie Caldwellb: Sep 16, 1889d: Mar 17, 1912
