move which they did in the fall of about 1933. Joe bought a farm near Marion, North Dakota and moved the family there. This made a good home for the family during the depression and W.P.A. days but Joe wasn't quite satisfied and when he learned he could buy the S. D. Ryder farm, the one he lived on when they were first married, he sold out and moved back to Pelican Rapids. On the Ryder farm the family went to work again to reconstruct and arrange things to suit their needs. The soil of this particular farm is one of the best and most productive in Ottertail County, Minn. Here Joe stayed and worked until he could no longer manage farm labor, when he sold the major part of the farm to his son-in-law Ernald Tabbut and the rest to one of the boys and a neighbor and moved into Pelican Rapids. He found it hard to retire completely so he spent some time in the west first with his son Bill in Grand Coulee, Wash., and later with Robert in Lynwood, Calif. It was while in Lyn- wood he suffered a fatal heart attack and died Feb. 2, 1952. His remains were brought back to Pelican Rapids where he was buried in Lakeview Cemetery beside his daughters.

ADAM SCHAUBERT Adam Schaubert was born in Rhubel, Hubenia, Russia November 10, 1858. In 1879, as a soldier, he went to the Krym (now called the Crimean Peninsula) which is on the Black Sea. He served in the Army for five years, from 1879 to 1884. After his discharge from the Army in 1884 he remained on the Peninsula to work. Carolina Bietz was born in Bassarabia, Russia on September 16, 1868. (Bessarabia is east of Odessa, between the Rivers Dniester and Pruth). Her parents were Mr. and Mrs. John Bietz. Carolina's mother died about 1870. Her father later married Christina Schneider. In 1882 when Carolina was 14 years old she moved with her parents to the Krym. It was here she met Adam Schaubert. On October I, 1886 Adam Schaubert and Carolina Bietz were united in marriage. They lived in a town named Ekaterinoslov, on the Krym. To Adam and Carolina three children were born while the couple lived in Russia. These children were Fredrika, John and Lydia. Fredrika, the oldest, died in Russia of a fever at the age of six. John was born in 1889 and Lydia in 1891. In 1893 the Adam Schaubert family emigrated to America by ship together with the John Bietz family (Carolina's parents) and the John Tonn family. Mrs. John Tonn was Carolina's half-sister. The Adam Schaubert's second oldest child, John, died on shipboard of a fever at the age of four the last day of the crossing. These three families landed in New York and then traveled to Miltown, South Dakota, which was north of Yankton. There they were met by and lived with a family named Brownberger. The Brownbergers had originally lived in the same part of Russia as the Schaubert family. The Brownberger children had diptheria when the Schaubert family arrived and Lydia, the last of Adam and Carolina's three children caught the disease and died at the age of two. From Miltown Adam Schaubert moved his wife to an area called the Chamberlain Indian Reservation near Chamberlain, South Dakota. 202 Scanned with a Zeutschel Zeta book scanner at 300 dpi.
