Peace Lutheran Church, translated by Selma Muller, "Peace Lutheran Church. 1909-1928," Tacoma, WA 1985, Marriage.
*Heinrich Thaut, 23, from Kolb, Russia, married Amalia Meyer, 20, 12-14-1919. Witnessed by Jacob Thaut and Emma Barth.
Henry and "Mollie" owned and ran a 80 acre dairy farm for many years in rural Pierce County WA. Henry and "Mollie" were self sufficient raising their 3 children in the good old fashioned way. Henry built the family a lovely little home which still stands today about 80 years later.
My great grandparents were a mystery because of where they came from. Family yore states that a family could not be very affectionate due to fear of contagions, mainly TB. This is how they were. But, I loved them dearly. Both of them witnessed much in their lifetime. Henry's family lost 4 children to disease and Mollies lost 3.
