Henry Bussmann lived in St Paul Mn, Ramsey co. His bro fred was born
1880, at st charles mn (Winona County). Henry also had 2 other bros
Frank and Amos.

I need the names of Henrys 9 kids.

Frank lived at International Falls, Mn .There is no information on him.

All I know about Amos is he had 2 adopted kids

The only sister died young, maybe 20-30 years old.

Phyllis --

Looking for family requires a matching of name to specific places and
specific dates, and will be your starting point. Minnesota has both
state and federal censuses that will help you put together a timeline
for Henry's family. (We'll have to wait until 2012 for the 1940 Federal
Census to be released, though.) These are every-name censuses beginning
in 1850, some with occupation, some birth information, length of time
resident in particular places, number of children born in the family, or
other tidbits of information. By piecing together the bits, you'll be
able to get a picture of the movements of the family. With family
members spread throughout the state, you'll have to pin down their
locations and other events as you search.

Good luck!
