Greetings everyone. I am looking for a little help with my Gusey side. My grandfather, Arthur Wayne Gusey, and his family were from Redwood Falls / Lake Lillian area of Minnesota. His parents were Julius Martin Gusey (b. 15 Jul 1879) and Johanna (nee Burkheart, b. 1 Aug 1881). I know Julius was born in Wisconsin, but don't know where. I believe his parents were Chris (Christian) and Pauline (Klinger, b. Feb 1848). I have found a marriage record in Milwaukee county, WI for Chris Guse and Pauline Klinge in 1876, which would be about right, and they are on the 1880 Milwaukee census. I just am not sure if they are the same.
The family story goes that Christian was married before Pauline, and that the kids from that marriage are Guse, and they kids from Pauline are Gusey. He died around 1891/2 in Wisconsing, and then Pauline remarrried to Albert Wentland and they moved to Redwood or Renville County, MN.
Anyone having any links or information to clear some of this up would be appreciated. I have no idea where they came from prior to Wisconsin, or where they lived in Wisconsin. Thanks

I would love to share info with you. This post was put up almost 6 years ago, and I have found out much more since then. I do believe that the Christian Guse listed on the 1880 census in Milwaukee is my Grandfather's grandfather. I have found the same household on the 1885 Minnesota territorial census in Prarieville, Brown, MN. This is also the same general location where Pauline's next husband, Albert Wentland, was living at the same time. Further, the household of William and Albertine Guse is a neighbor in Milwaukee in 1880, and also a neighbor in MN in 1885. They could be related.
