Could anyone give me a guess as to what the German spelling of the GRUN surname might be? This particular family was reportedly from Prague, Bohemia.

In particular, I am looking for a death record for Frank/Franz GRUN, b. abt. 1807. His wife's obituary says he died in 1886, but I also see the following death record that might be him:

Franz GRUN
Death Date: 17 Jun 1895
County: Manitowoc
Volume: 03
Page #: 0015

Any assistance appreciated.

I, too, have been researching the surname. It appears in german records as Grun, but with two dots over the U.

Good luck, marge

Thanks, Marge. Are your Gruns in Kewaunee?

Unfortunately, no. Catharine Grun came to NY and then Delaware Co Iowa.
