These are my husband's ancestors. All were born in Frankenburg, Saxony, Germany...and the father, Johannes, sent his sons to America when they were 17, 17, & 14...starting in 1888. His first son died while in the army and he didn't want to lose his other sons to war, so he sent them to America. I know a lot about Paul, and some about Arno...but not much about Max. He was born in 1875 and married a woman named Lydia. They had 12 children. I don't know if they stayed in Iowa.
I'd love to hear from anyone who knows anything about these Naumans.
