Stephen, Lydia,
Stephen responded to me with the note below, but he might not have
copied you. Lately I was very busy or even over committed and
this is why I didn't checked on this.
Stephen, should I add the info below on your page of the Internet?
Lydia, is the input from Stephen, what you had been looking for?
In your original note you made the statement: "If you would like
a copy of the obit I will email it to you."
I'm not sure what an "obit", but are interested in case it has
to do with our family tree.

Lydia,
for sure I know that you are in contact with Jean Ferber.
I realy enjoy hearing that we made progress with the Kransz
family. This all started the Pletschette family tree.

I have been in contact with Jean Ferber regarding the Kransz
family. I know he has copied you what I have sent him on
the Kransz family. I recently found out that Maria Palen
(Died October 8, 1897) and John Schrup had 8 children one of
them Nicholas J. Schrup. He married Mary Anna Kransz
daughter of Nicholas and Margaret Faber Kransz. Do you know
when Maria & John got married? I have an obit on Maria
Palen that said they emigrated from Luxembourg in 1855 with
six little children and settled in Iowa. Do you know who
were the parents of Maria? Also in the obit it says that
she leaves two brothers Nicholas and Leopold. Do you have
any information on them? If you would like a copy of the
obit I will email it to you. Thank you in advance for any
information you can provide on Maria Palen & John
Schrup. Lydia
