Schroeder family-Doon, Lyon Co, Iowa 1880-1900
Looking for a Schroeder family who lived in the town of Doon around 1880-1900. There was a murder- Mr Schroeder was found hanging in the barn-supposed to look like a suicide. The hired hand was found guilty and sent to Stillwater MN prison according the family stories. The murdered Schroeder is a brother to my great grandfather Henry. Does sound familiar to anyone? Can anyone do look-ups for the local paper? We believe it happened around 1898-1899.
