Barb,
An obit for Ruth Imer's sister Lucille sheds a little clue. Lucille Imer married Lawrence Jaeger. She later married Charles Gere. In her obit from 2002, it mentions Lucille's surviving daughter Suellen Jaeger Loesch of Hastings, Minn. and Ruth's son Jerry Scholtz and his wife Pat of Jamestown, ND. No addresses, but it might be a start. The complete obit is on the WI-St. Croix board or just search for Lucille Gere in Ancestry.
