DODSON - I am trying to find details of my Dodsons who rented land near Edgely from roughly 1905 to 1916. Other places mentioned were Jud and Dickey so they were very possibly somewhere in between. Harry Dodson, and son Phineas Dodson (shown as Joe in the 1910 census) were there, as well as Clark and Gertrude Jones, probably all on rented land. Charles Dodson, son of Harry, died there about 1909-1912. Rosanne Simmons June, 1998

I am searching for any information on Camill Hugo Martin Gottlieb Kramer who was born Nov. 20, 1858 in Mannheim, Baden, Germany. He homesteaded in LaMoure County, Dickey area in 1882. I know he was a LaMoure County commissioner, a director of the State German Loyalty League, president of the LaMoure County School Officers Association, and member of the Masonic Lodge. Curt Kramer was one of his sons and was my grandfather. Curt was also a LaMoure County Commissioner. Emma, Curt's wife, and my grandmother lived in Dickey all of her life and was a resident of the LaMoure Nursing Home until her death just a few years ago.

Specifically I am interested in finding links to Germany. The mother or father's names of Camill?

Camill 1st wife died in childbirth. His second wife was a mail order bride from Germany. Her name was Mary Fleishmann. Any information on her would also be helpful. We know nothing about either one of them before their time in America. Mother and/or Father's names would be a great help.

I know Camill also headed a troop of players in the county called Kramer's Komic Komedians and traveled to communities and put on plays.

He was a public speaker and loyal American. He served in the Prussian army before coming to America. Any information found would be helpful.

Does anyone have any idea why he had so many names? Are these links to relatives?  Cecil V. Kramer Jr., 126 Locksley Place, Forest, VA 24551
