Notes for Hienrich "Henry" Ernst Lehmann:
Heinrich Lehman, of Hustisford, Wisc., was another farmer to come to Dakota in 1880.He was tired of digging stumps there and thought the open plains had greater future in store.He Brought his wife and seven of his eleven children in 1883.They brought their possessions to Watertown, bought a plow and horses and left to find their new place.Travel was slow with the large family so they didn't get to the Claim the night they planned.They stopped in a clump of trees one half mile south of Groton, SD.As soon as they arrived at the settlement, some went right to plowing, while others started the shelter for the family.His son EMIL, was then eleven years old.After some years in the Dakota the parents and all but Emil and his brother John, went back to Wisc.The two boys batched for awhile and then John also left.Courage and perseverance were essential to pioneers, so Emil's sister came to keep house for him until he married.His grandson Henry Lehman and his wife Dorothy(Erdman) still live on the farm.
