Ruppert of Peru, Illinois - Saxon, Ger.

Hi...
My name is Colleen and my G-grandfather was a William Ruppert. We are told that William Rupperts cousin was Jacob Ruppert (former owner of the NY Yankees (from 1914-1939) and
owner of Ruppert Knickerbocker Beer after his father died). Jabob's father was Jacob Sr. The only information I have is that my G-grandfather, William Ruppert, married a Catherine Scott and together they had 10 children, (in no paticular order): Margaret, Mildred, Anna, Katherine, William (JR), John, Elizabeth, Mary, Joseph and James. Margaret is my grandmother (RIP). We don't have any information on William's (SR) parents and if there were any siblings. When all the 10 children were adults and working, they told their father that he should retire and that they would take care of him. Well, he did retire and he packed his bags and left. I guess he thought his work was done. I don't know if this can go anywhere. I didn't even know where the name "RUPPERT" generated. I'm seeing Germany (hence your posts and some others). Any information is greatly appreciated. I know I don't have much.
